Got one more about my former employer:
So this past Monday, I was coming home from an employment seminar (more or less, we went over how to make resumes, and I was there mainly to fix mine). And I stumbled upon one of my former co-workers. From what she told me, the situation I was in is much, much worse than I ever could imagine.
See, while I was still laid off, the supervisors apparently got all fire-happy and shitcanned a lot of their staff (which included myself after some period), and often unwarranted at that. The employee I talked to was one of these unfortunate victims. Having been only one day away from having her probation period lifted. She's now planning to sue them for wrongful termination. And you wanna know the best part: She was fired for suspicion of being too social. I find that a little hard to believe personally. Especially so, since I also found out one of those supervisors was rude as all get out towards yet another former employee whilst firing her.
It's amazing anyone's still working there given the high turnover rate they have. The only solace I can take pride in is that the laundry room attendant that shoved my head into a bin of towels was among those fired (though why he wasn't sooner is a mystery to me).
Also @Old Blighty, when did Barb leave Frank? Because that story was horrible (referring to his treatment towards the animals). If she didn't leave after all that pet nonsense, what did?
