Guest The Old Me Report post Posted October 18, 2003 ...aint life grand. Okay, so I pick up this repo, a 2001 mind you, and the brakes are terrible. I'm driving down the road (in a Chevy S-10), and the brakes stop working. My co worker is in front of me, and I veer out of the way, cross an intersection, into a cornfield, to a ditch and FLIP the fucker. I braced my forearm and fist on the roof, to avoid hitting my head (no seatbelt). I realize I am okay, open the door, and my co worker is screaming that the brakes and tires are on fire. I freak out, leaping out as fast as can be. I was shaken, but all was well, not my fault, covered under the banks insurance, yadda yadda. TODAY, I get canned for rebooting a server and router multiple times. Long story short, we relocated offices in 2001...we've had pc problems ever since. Servers going down, files disappearing off of servers, printers printing (local printers) without being told, you name it. Many times in the past (probably 20-30) the IT dept has been too lazy to come out and look. They have asked me to reboot the severs, check CAT 5 cabling and NIC cards. Well, they "did not tell me" to reboot the servers today. I took my own initiative and did it. I was fired. This "disturbed" them. Blows my fucking mind....I argued for an hour, then realized I don't want to be in this line of work anymore anyway, plus I really don't need to work for a few months and left. I'm sure I could form some sort of lawsuit, but I'm too lazy. I mean, no warning, no agreement telling me "don't touch the hardware", plus, security and HR had NO IDEA of my accident the day before. They say. Fuckers. Got a wedding this weekend, so I won't be around much until after. Til then, flame away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest stardust Report post Posted October 18, 2003 Actually, TNM, if you were simply an at-will employee, they could fire you at any given moment for no reason at all. However, if you actually had a contract with the company, then you could file a lawsuit (yes, I know you said you were too lazy to do so). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2003 It was a joke I made because he's quite possibley the biggest pervert on the board. Plus there's a lot of younger people on this board and he's constantly jumping into threads making perverted comments and then he even posted a picture of his cock for all the young-un's to see. So that's where I get pedophile at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JangoFett4Hire 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2003 Yeah, that show me your peepee thread was rather odd. I didn't have the nerve to look at any of the links, but people's commentaries on them were pretty funny. But that pedophile stuff rules. Keep it up, please.

Dr. Tom 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 I really should start selling the car flip, as I totally no sold it Friday. Scott Keith would be ashamed. Do you know any doctors? Get them to write something up about neck and back injuries. Things like whiplash and many accident-related back injuries don't show up on X-rays. It'd be pretty easy to put a workmen's comp claim in against your company at that point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
