Yeah, I’ve heard the, “You’re one of our top performers” speech multiple times. I got one once when I said I was leaving the company (it was going down and I didn’t want to rearrsnge the deck chairs).
The occasional CEO tried to get me to stay with that speech and then a story about leaving the Cowboys (they were still in Texas) during a game. He was so clueless he didn’t know I don't watch sports.
So how would he know I was a “top performer?” 🙄😂
@feloneouscat there's 3 shifts at my plant which is the biggest of its kind in the world, I work 2nd shift... both first shift and third shift want me to come to their shifts because of what I can do, I bounce around to other departments quite often, I drive a stand up forklift and work in the coolers either staging/issuing product or putting product away in the racks in the coolers or pulling shipments. there's only maybe 1 or 2 people better than me, but we've been shorthanded this week...
@feloneouscat sorry just walked in the door had a couple things to take care of The problem is my tag team partner is using FMLA on/off and he really takes advantage of it in large chunks and it puts me in a bind because I have to make up for him and he's got seniority, So he's protected they can't do much about it because technically he's not doing anything wrong it's just inconvenient... And we've had three other people that have been MIA this week so it's just been extra busy & stressful.
@feloneouscat because the proof's in my numbers at the end of the night...plus I've got 30 years experience I'm one of the best drivers in the whole plant
