We lost another one of our Texas "clients" /CEO placements. But this one totally dropped off the radar. It's one thing to leave the program to go back to jail, but leaving all together, well that's the same as risking your life.
Can working for that company really be THAT bad? I'm starting to think this is not worth the trouble if we can't even get them to stay a year.
Sometimes I wonder why I come to work in the morning

The Problem with Jane
I'm afraid my CEO friends have found a new strategy to get out of that hell hole we placed them in. I fear that several of them are TRYING to get fired on purpose.
Jane, who WAS doing really well by all accounts, is the latest problem. Her boss told her to come up with some kind of Gung Ho meeting idea and Jane purposely turned in the most asinine proposal I've ever read. I guess she's just testing her limits but geez, you should have seen this.
She wanted to pay thousands of dollars to bring people to a city in the middle of nowhere with no hospital. Then make people dress up like dwarfs and dance around and do cheers. Then they were supposed to play make believe for the rest of the day. In between the dwarf dancing and the make believe and the cheers, she wanted her Housekeeping Supervisor to give a presentation on the budget process.
Her CFO is threatening to file some harassment complaint saying that Jane was purposely trying to torture her by making her 1) watch dwarfs dance (b/c of some midget phobia she has), and 2) share feelings (a whole different phobia).
I'm pretty sure the complaint will tossed because 1. everyone knows a midget is different from a dwarf, and 2. the feelings to be shared were make believe so didn't count.
Still doesn't take care of Jane's employee morale problems though. She keeps this shit up and I'm going to threaten to promote her like we did when we wanted to punish the last guy in Houston.
What idiots.
PS: What's with these people and their obsession with dwarfs and midgets?
