Fired on the First Day
A little wisdom to start your weekend – remember to be grateful for what you have. A friend of mine was telling me a story earlier that made me remember how lucky I am to work for a laid back company.
He works at a small marketing firm in San Francisco and they hired a new bookkeeper. On her first day, she was 15 minutes late. The boss brought her into her office and immediately told her that it wasn’t going to work out since she was late, and that she was fired.
