Bad Bad Stoopid Jobbie Interview People

SAMMY

Mommy camed home from her innerview and was furry furry upset. She gotted there a little early, so she hanged out in her metal monster wif wheels for a while. Then she wented into the building and wented to the see-kurity desk like she was tolded to do, and gived the guard purrson the name and phone number of the purrson she was 'apposed to meet. It was a little early, and the purrson was not at her desk. So, at 4:00 she hadded the guard try again. Not at her desk. The guard tried about efurry 3 minutes to call the lady she was 'apposed to meet, but the lady was nefurr at her desk. Mommy gotted furry upset and after 20 minutes tolded the guard she was going home, and if the lady efurr happened to call back, to tell her that it was rude of her to not be there at the 'pointment time. Mommy then finded the innerview confirmation and finded anofurr phone number, and called that. It was to the lady's "backup" purrson and he saided that the lady wented home at 3pm 'acause she saided that she hadded nofing else on her kalendar. He lookeded at her kalendar and Mommy's name was no where on any day on it. Mommy was furry upset 'acause she hadded an email from this lady telling her today was the day. So, she drived 87 miles there for nofing. She saided that was alot of gas for her metal monster. So, we spented most of the evening purring on her and making her feel better.

What is wrong wif peoples these days, theys is all getting to be so rude and uncarring. If they are dat uncaring, then you don'ts need to werk for dim, I know you all need jobs, the Lord will provide the right jobs for you.

Lux said...

That's awful! 87 miles is almost across the country, from what I hear!

If your Mom didn't cry out of frustration and and anger and sadness, she should have!

I feel very badly for her. She should find out who the lady's boss is and tell them. Unless the lady IS the boss.

Karen said...

Ok that was so rude. I do hope a scathing email went out. Also with a copy of the original and maybe you should send the email to her boss to show how unorganized she is. I sometimes hate people

Oh man....that makes me so mad. I hate rude people. Tell your mommy that she doesn't want to work for that lady anyhow. She'll find a much better job closer to home. I just know she will.

87 miles is equal to 3 naps and 2 snacks, a long way. That is awful and was very ruud of that purson.

That is an outrage! Momma said she had that happen once and would never have it happen again. She said that such a place is not worth working if the superviser is that unorganized!

Omnibabe said...

Well... your mommy certainly wouldn't want to work for someone that rude and thoughtless.

I'm saying lots of prayers for all of you!

Renee Nefe said...

I agree with all the cats here that behavior was very rude and a email to the rudelady and a letter to her boss are in order here. However, I wouldn't want to work for a company like that. Oh, your mommy should also request compensation for gas money and your mommy's time for that dead end! Her time is very important and if she had known that rudelady was going home mommy could have stayed home taking care of you.

Daisy said...

That makes me very, very MAD. Steam is almost coming out of my ears. Some beans can be very rude.

LZ said...

Lets all hiss at that woman! That was very rude and I hope she calls to say she's sorry. Couldn't someone else have at least talked with your mommy? I don't like that company.

The Crew said...

Oh, that's just wrong & so rude! A kitty would never have forgetten about an appointment with your Mom.

That is just inexcusably rude. I agree with the others that your Mom wouldn't want to work for people like that, but a followup should be done to try to prevent her from doing it to others. Tell her boss and ask for compensation for your wasted time and gas. Somecat needs to put the bitey on that woman.

Angel Junior, Orion and Sammy said...

Beans can be so clueless! Maybe that is not a good place for her to work after all!

Good job making her feel better!

Max said...

While I think people who are so inconsiderate should have their nipples twisted... some bridges are better off left unburned, ya know?

I hope the next interview goes better, a whole lot better.

Forty Paws said...

Oh that was awful!!! Absolutely horrible. What a disorganized and stupid woman. Yea, your momma doesn't need to work for someone like that. Everything will work out the way it is supposed to.

we're not supposta talk like this, but THAT LADY SUCKS

Tommy and Teaghan said...

That's a classic symptom of non-customer service these days. Bet da lady feels like cheese when she finds out she missed you. Their problem, not yurs. Do you really want to werk fur a place wif someone so incompetent in da company?

Spock said...

Poor Meezer Momma. We am so sad for yous gys. We will say more purrayers for you.

Just Ducky said...

First, let's all teleport over to that lady's desk and leave a purresent(if you know what I mean).

Yes, ask for reimbursement for your time and gas.

Last, be thankful. You probably don't want to work at a place like that.

Purrs to you Meezer Mom. A good job will come.

Jake and Bathsheba said...

Did your mom have to go all the way to Syracuse? Our mom has nieces near there.

Yes, that is rather inexcusable behavior, and Mom also recommends a follow up email that includes a forward of the confirming email. But don't make it too scathing. Perhaps it was an honest oversight by just that one individual, and the company might be willing to fit you in when you go for the other interview in the area. Who knows?

Our Mom does quite a bit of hiring of admin assistants for a large local government. She is very conscientious about getting back with people, which surprises many of the applicants. She used to even call people that she had interviewed to let them know when they didn't receive the job, but delivering bad news over the phone got too hard for her. Though she's had her job for a very long time, she still remembers being left hanging all too often. There are so many discourteous employers out there. On the other hand, she cannot believe some of the awful resumes that cross her desk. Can't people use spellcheck?

Best of luck to your mom.

I'm so mad! That's so not cool. I'm sorry your beanmom had to go through that. I'm sending her some loving headbutts.

Sammy and Miles:
I agree with all of the bloggers ... Your mommie showed great grace and patience when she could have ranted and/or cried. The interview lady should have the bitey put on her BIG TIME.

Tell your mommie that efurryone in the blogosphere knows that she'll get a better offer closer to home ... We just know it.

Keep givin' her those cuddles and purrs ...

Ooh! That was mean of the "innerview" person to make your Mommy go far away in the noisey thing for no reason.

We don't quite unnerstand what a "innerview" is, so we asked The Big Thing about it. He said he did lots of them before he stayed home an one thing he made sure of was that "innerviews" were done and were fair (we think that means "good").

He said he gives a serious HISS at the Big Things that "botched it". We decided to hiss at them, too! We'd like to bite their ankles.

Lone Star Purrs said...

We agree wif efurrycat that's posted!!! There's not much left fur us to say except....HISSSSSSSSSS! We'll go wif y'all (& Derby) to leaf "presents" if'n y'all want us to.

I'm officially in a secret fight with that lady. How inconsiderate.

May she choke on a recycled hair-ball!

Good bye my sweet Nicky

 Good bye my sweet sweet Nicky.  You has a hard time sometimes with your brain injury, but you were always so sweet.  I love you to the moon...
