The only thing that settles is my suspension

 

With my OT, I make more than my supervisor. He is salaried.
They hire Mechanics (entry level) and Senior Mechanics (prior experience). A lot of new hires just have military experience but are being hired entry level.

 

Well, that was a strange call from my General Foreman...

I get a call basically telling me things are not working out the way he would like and that he has to let me go. and that foreman didn't want me on his crew anymore and how others have said the same thing. I was a bit shocked but ok... in this line of work being able to get along with your crew is important since your life is in there hands, trusting there abilities and there judgement is crucial. and moving people around until they can fit in happens.

I called up a coworker who i have worked closely with up until recently, and told him I just got fired, and told him what was said. he was like.. you need to call your foreman, because what you was told and what i have heard doesn't line up..

So I called my foreman and told him I just got fired, and told him was was said, and was like.. "Hold up let me call this dumb ass" about 60 seconds later i get a call from the GF saying "OOPS wrong person, made a bad mistake.." there was another guy that should have gotten the call, and deserves that call. and for some reason I seem to be the default number he calls for non local numbers.

Yea so Fired, and then unfired all in the span of less than 5 minutes

 

So sorry...and congrats!

 

Man what a mind fawk, at least it worked in your favor. I’d go have a beer at lunch to calm my nerves.

 

Sounds to me like he owes you at least one hell of a good lunch, on him of course, minimum payment for the pain and suffering it caused (real or not )....

 

Wow, just Wow! I think I'd ask for a sick day just to rescramble my brains.

 

he already said he was buying lunch...

guess it would have really been confusing when I turned in my base pass tomorrow... or when I showed up in non FR and tennis shoes

 

Think I will skip the beer and go full pirate mode and break out the Havana club 7 year old... and have a triple rum and coke

 

Yes sir

 

Stressful five minutes!

 

A in my hardest class

 

Congrats looks like rocket science to me.

 

yea a bit... I might have taken my cousin up on that transmission work.. and gone on the road for a bit. transmission is much bigger and heavier work.. but would be kinda cool to do the barehand thing..

 

Looks like my Tax Return.

 

My head... it hurts....

Math was never good to me

 

Must be a Canadian thing.
