Here's my rant. It's sad but true, it's all about a forum poster that you all know....namely ME....fatlazyless!
"So if the customer looks out their window, what they'll see is the oil delivery guy doing push-ups in their back yard. In all my years in the oil business, that is totally weird and bizzare. Like, does the UPS guy stop and do push-ups when he does a delivery? How's it all look and does it inspire confidence in my oil company" (quote my boss)
Started a brand new, home heating oil delivery job on Monday for an un-named Lakes Region heating oil company. Training pay- $10/h.; After training- $15/h, and I was stunned to get canned for doing 12 push-ups out in a customer's back yard, while doing an oil fill-up, totally out of sight, and with nobody home.
My trainer was right there and did not say a word at the time, until the next day when he tells the boss. I get no second chance, despite my lengthy claim of ignorance about not doing push-ups and request for a second chance.
Where-o-where did I go so wrong by doing push-ups......12 push-ups....one time.....with no second chances......boo-hoo! I could not believe I got canned over this. I was like....be carefull of the customer's landscaping plants, absolutely do not drip any oil, not one drop, and drive safe-drive safe-drive safet.....safety 1st & last...always driver safety....so I did 12 push-ups just to unwind a little on the back yard next to the oil fill pipe. Ok Boss, just tell me once and I won't do it again. So, it 'no way...you will not be working here....what a bummer!
...end of my unemployment rant!
