transfered again Lolz
16 years ago
lol this summer job program my local unemployment office started is getting to be a ride worth taking just for the laughs.
first they put me at the local boys and girls club, but because too many people were sent there they transferred me to the local highway department.
the highway department was good work I guess.
first I was washing their fleet of trucks all day but within a week I got caught up meaning they had to find more work for me and so they put me on the roads with some of their cres and let me flag down traffic while they were moving backhoes and the like throgh the area.
letting me just stand there and do the flag thing wasn't good for them so they put me back in the shop and only told me to pick up trash each morning which only takes like 20 mins considering it is only a three minute walk to the dumpster and back with one of those cans, not to mention the lack of floor space means it does not take long to sweep.
ok now your asking why tell you all that?
why? because the last thing they did was have me walk around picking up candy wrappers from around the building which pretty much clued me in to the fact that there was not enough work to go around.
ok now the punch line to this joke I lived through.
they sent me off to another job within the program because, and remember this is there claim even though I was getting work done with time to spare, they claimed I had low work ethic. LOL the idiot that said that should have been fired because the shop foreman, the very same shop foreman who outranks the fool that fired me, knew I was doing a good job and was actually getting it done at a reasonable pace as well because he was there and actually did not believe it when I was dismissed.
honestly the shop foreman and most of the others their were some of the best people I have met so far and I harbor no ill will towards them but that one jacka** could have atleast been honest and said we can't keep you busy.
I mean atleast if he were honest about it instead of deciding to lie and say that I did nothing I would have been understanding but now I would encourage people to complain to the local government about how idiot's like him waste tax payer money sitting at a desk and firing the one guy who actually cared about his job and was happy there.
but at least I am working with a friend's old highschool shop teacher so all is good
