Ensign 1: Sir, I don’t think you should be smoking in here.
\nEnsign 2 Captain, we’ve been over this before, the manual is very clear about the dangers…
\nCaptain Max Pruss: Fuck you both, The Hindenberg is a better machine than the two of you could ever hope to imagine!
\nEnsign 1: You have your parachute?
\nEnsign 2: Oh yeah…..<\/b><\/p>\n
When I gave notice, things were clear on start and departure dates. Then, my current job went wonky on me, saying I had to give them more time. This came, despite the fact that I am piratically spoon-feeding them a replacement. When I told them I had already agreed to a start date, they asked me if I could come back for two half-days of training in lieu of three weeks notice. Checking in with my new employer, I found that I could do that, but only with my boss’ approval, and using vacation time (of which I will have precious little for the upcoming months). I worked things out with the general manager here, and I thought we had an accord, with the understanding that the training would be coming out of my pocket, and that I would definitely expect something more than good will in return.<\/p>\n
Then, the VP here found out that I was giving less than 3 weeks from the GM and flipped. She reneged on what the GM and I had worked out, wanted to call my new boss directly. After she was reassured that I would ask for three weeks, she wanted the three weeks and the two half-days!! I put my damn foot down. Talk about unreasonable.<\/p>\n
At the end of all this ping pong of umpteen phone calls and whatever else, it came down to me getting the three weeks, and a personal guarantee on my part that I would answer e-mails and phone calls in a timely manner in an emergency should arise. It is not like I am moving to Mars. As a result of all this mess, I am definitely not taking off any time in between jobs, and am making the switch mid-week to try and make up for the last minute bs going on my employer’s plate.<\/p>\n
