So I applied for a job tonight. At the company I used to work for as a Customer Service Supervisor.
Only I applied for a Sales Representative position. Which I would be good at - my customers always loved me.
Management - not so much.
Surprisingly I can be a bit of an outspoken bitch. Who knew?
But seriously, when you see someone who has no skills, is rude to customers and co-workers, and is illiterate getting ahead because she looks good in jeggings and fuck me boots, wouldn't you be a tiny bit bitter? She got a nice raise based solely on her ability to "ahem" ego stroke.
Meanwhile, I had honest achievements and got staff reductions.
So I'm sure my former boss is laughing his ass off that I applied for the job - but really he should consider it.
Because I'm damn good. I know the product lines and the customers. I also know the party line. Plus, by now it's got to be pretty evident that knowing how to suck a dick, means nothing when it comes to making a company money.
Eh, we'll see.
But I'll miss the tomato porn!
ReplyDeleteWell then check out this plant. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clitoria
DeleteI think I'm glad it's blue and not pink!
DeleteI hope they at least interview you! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI do too - but I'll understand if they don't. I have a tendency to be outspoken on my opinions with management.
DeleteIt would business wise of him to hire you back. He won't have to waste all that time and money training you. Good luck n' keep us posted!
ReplyDeleteYou can bet I'll keep you posted.
DeleteOoh, good luck! I never could understand people businesses that let things like that happen. I thought the goal was to make money, not promote people who may look good but don't know how to do their jobs.
ReplyDeleteI thought so too. Especially since they hired her into a position that she had pretty much already been demoted from.
DeleteGood luck!!!! Office politics like that really used to get on my nerves. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you. It got on mine as well.
DeleteOh that makes me so mad. Mostly I see it with men though. I don't care if they are a 'nice guy' or 'have connections' if they can't do the work, and do it well and safely, then they have no business doing the job. Grrrr.
ReplyDeleteResults should always count for something - and I provided them.
DeleteKeep us posted! Fingers crossed your former boss can overlook his asshattery and consider you for the job! :)-The Dose Girls
ReplyDeleteHe was never actually "my" boss - but he did have an effect on my ability to do my job and access to resources.
DeleteCrossing my fingers for you!!
