The best one I had was a few years back when I was the manager at a software house. I'd set the department up from nothing,recruited the staff etc. Took the turnover from £300k per year to about £1m per year in less than a year. One interviewee had a history of getting sacked but I thought I'd give him a chance so gave him a job.
Unfortunately my dad died suddenly shortly afterwards so I had a couple of days off for the funeral and when I got back this guy had staged what I can only describe as a mutiny. He'd taken my job, my car and if I hadn't been watching he'd probably took the wife as well (can live in hope!!) I was told by the directors to clear my desk and escorted from the premises. I now work for myself and am a lot happier. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of MB Software Solutions General Account Sent: 13 May 2008 13:00 To: GrahamB Subject: Re: [NF] Contract not renewed.
