OH boy, how do I
even begin this post. I’ve written it so
many times in my head, but every time I try to write it out I just have a
jumble of 2309409483 thoughts swarm my head!
So here goes…
Adam’s job has
sucked for a long time. Unfortunately,
it paid pretty well. We’ve both wanted
to find him something that he would enjoy and could make a similar amount
doing. There were several jobs that
sounded like something he would like and be good at, but unfortunately just
didn’t pay enough. And while money isn’t
everything, his job pays our bills, so it is something {a very important
something}
Finally a month
or so ago he landed a job that fit the family requirements!! So it’s been a {looong} waiting game before
he could put is two weeks in!
Sorry former
boss, you’re actually going to have to be at work more the 7 {yes SEVEN, he’s
kept track before} hours a week now!
Sorry former
boss, you’re going to miss that Spring Break trip you take each year to {attempt
to} keep your company going. Guess it
makes up for the cruise you took last month with 1 week notice {that you knew
about for 3 months} and took 2 employees from the other office on {while trying
to keep it a secret from the rest}. Can
we say shady?!
Sorry former
boss, that you will probably have to start paying your employees the
commissions they actually earned since this was something you could never
explain to my husband over the past 4 years.
Pretty sure more than one person should be calculating them and the
employee has the right to know how you base them, but whatever.
Sorry former
boss, you’re going to have to find someone else to make up lies to other
employees about. This time you should
tell them to someone who doesn’t put you on speakerphone for the employee to
hear straight from your mouth. {also,
for the record, my husband is not fat or lazy, nor did you fire him, but go
ahead and say whatever is necessary to make yourself feel better!}
Sorry former
boss, you might actually have to hire a couple more people to keep the 24/7
office running since Adam’s not there to do it for you anymore. Good news is that you should be able to pay
them since you actually gave my husband a pay CUT last year. How can you cut someone’s commissions and
expect them to like you and be happy to work for you?!
Sorry former
boss, you’re going to need to find someone else that you can make the company
rules up on as you go. After three years
you cannot just decide the month of to change the vacation accrual schedule. If you always give vacation on their
anniversary date, you don’t just say ‘oh, well after a while you just switch to
the beginning of the year.’ And to do it
without warning says everything about how that office is ran. Your welcome for the extra 3 months of work
{without vacation} that you got from him.
Sorry former boss,
that my husband will actually be able to take a shower, vacation, or boat ride
this summer without making sure he has his cell phone on him 24/7 to help your customers!
Oh wait, I’m not
sorry about any of this!
PS…thanks for
being an asshole and not paying Adam a dime of this 3 {yes, THREE} weeks of
vacation that he had earned…it says a lot about the kind of person you are and
the “business” you run. Enjoy failing! It’s
been fun watching your marriage unravel the last 4 years, can’t wait to watch
your business fail too!! :)

On a positive note...I could not be more proud and excited for this awesome opportunity he's beginning today. I know that he will totally rock it! :) Cheers to new beginnings in 2013!!
