A fucking moron. I swear this lady is the dullest spoon in the knife drawer.
The back story.
So my previous boss worked in the position for a year. She was a fantastic supervisor and did everything she could to make the place run as smoothly as possible. She was part time doing a full time job but you wouldn't be able to tell by how well things were running. Then came layoffs in the organization.
Unlike most employers who can hire and fire at will, to hire somebody full time currently is near impossible because of a hiring freeze. Employees who have been laid off also have the bullshit 'right' to move in to another position even if they don't match the qualifications for that role. Gotta love the union on that shit.
So...This lady gets laid off from her 'secretary' position elsewhere in the organization. Actually, 'secretary' would be giving her too much credit for what she did in her previous post. She was more a door-man, like those walmart greeters. she applies for the position my former boss had filled. Now because she has seniority at the place she can bump the part time worker and take over the job. She has absolutely no managerial or supervisor experience whatsoever but is allowed to screw the income of a hard working mother of 3...bullshit. But whatever she is the new boss lady so I'll just do what I do.
The Story (Read this part if you are not interested in the back story)
So, I had arranged to work on some special projects around the place before the new boss lady moved in. I had cleared it with my previous supervisor, cleared it with the team that I am working with and cleared it with boss ladies boss...I explained to boss lady that I would be working on these projects and would not be at my usual post for the next few weeks. She asked me to give her a call when I got to work so that she knew I was there, which I agreed to do and everything was fine...or so I thought.
Apparently boss lady has the attention span of a retarded gnat. I called this bitch every fucking day EVERY DAY! to let her know where I was and that I was there. apparently I need babysitting and another mother cause 24yr old baby need butt wiped and ba ba...I get a call today asking where I was and that I hadn't shown up for work in the past week and she was going to terminate my employment. OH THE FUCK YOU DO!
I've been working there a year and change, You've been here 3 weeks and less qualified than a goodwill employee to do the job you're in. I've had 1 complaint the entire time I've been there. I've shown up every day for work and have done everything asked of me and this bitch is threatening to fire my ass as a show of power.
Fuck her, and the horse she rode in on.
PS: I still have a job.
/Rant
I guess now would be a bad time to ask anyone in the seattle area if they want to hire a fast learning computer tech who knows a good deal about networking...
Cliffs:
-Unqualified idiot bumps qualified person from job after getting laid off because of union rules
-I arrange to work on special project with agreement to call new boss lady to check in, clear with her boss the team I am working with.
-I call every day
-New boss lady threatens to fire my ass for not being at work after I called every day.
