Really bad memos!
mumma to KMC:
The following are for your viewing pleasure. They are two memos sent out from the new head person at my old job (officially done as of yesterday!!).
This lady, "B" was hired to do one job and within 2 weeks was promoted to do another job and not because she was qualified. She is a major brown noser and laughs at all the boss' jokes (for real, I am not making this up, if you laugh at the boss' jokes, you will get promoted, I received a promotion and pay raise last year, before I went on maternity leave w/ds, because I "decided" to play to game to see what would happen). She also thinks that the bosses "pet" is a royal treasure and laughs at all his jokes (always about "making babies"). At the office Christmas Party he made Jr. High jokes about biological functions and life saving procedures.
So here are the memos:
First one:
December 18, 2006

The second:
December 20, 2006
I was informed last night that at one point in time if a (Child Protective Services) pt No Showed
Their Case Manager was called in and informed of this, So, we are going to be
Doing this once again. Please remind me of a No Show (CPS) pt until I get
Used to doing it.
Thank you,

The clinical manager (in charge of all the therapists and drs) asked me what the first memo was. I looked at it and really couldn't help myself. I said "A really badly formatted memo with lots of grammatical errors?"
Ah, freedom, freedom, to be away from that place. I have to say it was a humbling experience to be there. I saw the people who had the qualifications and the ability to do a great job pushed aside for people who knew how to kiss up the right way.
ehellion:
Wow, are these the ACTUAL memos she sent? Capital letters and all? Sheesh!
mumma to KMC:
All I did was change the information that could point to the actual clinic. As I was typing them out for you all, I realized just how awful they are. I mean, I don't have the best grammar in the world, but my goodness!
IndianInlaw:
Is "no showed" a verb?
Fluffy_Brit_Bunny:
Someone should tell her that a word processor isn't like a typewriter - she doesn't need to hit return when she reaches the edge of the page. Much less hit it twice!
Sheesh, it maddens me to see people without these skills doing jobs where they're essential. Can someone politely she go on a computing skills course? Suggested it skill development, of course, rather than remedial.
