Quoting Dave Drum to Nancy Backus on 10-16-18 06:10 <=-

They clearly dropped the ball there.... I know that this has been in
the works for quite a while now... about a year, maybe....?

This particular deal just appeared. But, Misty had been looking for
other avenues for a revenue stream .... she has enrolled in training
to be a radiologist - which is part on-line and part classroom. She's going to continue that - so if the service writer thing blows up
.......

Or even if she gets offered a radiology job before the service writer
thing blows up... :) I wish her all the best, there... :)

So Bryan (my store manager) contacted the Regional Manager and threw
both the DM and TSM under the bus. The regional guy had not been aware
of Misty leaving until the day before her last day of work - and he
should have been in the loop from the beginning.

Absolutely.... and might have been able to do something had he known
from the beginning what was going on....

I think the TSM may be going to the unemployment line - ultimately.
Not that I would give the regional manager's contact information to any
of my shop people or anything. Riiiiiight .... when a shop owner tells
you that "If the @%%$ #@%%& comes around here again acting all superior I'm never buying anything from you guys." I tell them "I can't control that. But, here's Jason's office number - he can fix it."

If he's that incompetent, and a liability to the company, he should be sacked....

It was hard to see her go. She asked me for a hug as she was leaving
and I was afraid I'd not be able to let go.

I hope you gave her the hug anyway.....

But, of course. And it was hard to let go.

I'm sure it was....

And when I paid for the cake I presented my Fuel Saver and got the
spiff. They neither know nor care that Auto Zone is reimbursing me
for the cost of the cake. And Auto Zone doesn't know I got a
"hidden benefit". Bv)=

Nice deal... all around... :)

The only good thing (for me) from this whole rancid affair.

I hear you....

More pleasant things ....... before I start training a new boss.

I've done that at least once in my life.... a long time ago... :)
