IBTG81 Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 I was promised a promotion a few weeks ago, when when of the managers returned from vacation. She came back this week, and we all sat down to discuss it. The VP (who told me I was getting promoted), changed his mind suddenly, and said they were going to hire from outside (someone fresh out of college and cheaper). Now, I didn't get this is writing, but do I have any legal rights? I tried to discuss it with him, and that turned out to be a waste. I then told him I was disappointed with the organization, and I may have to start looking for a new job. I am so !@#$ing pissed.
/dev/null Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Now, I didn't get this is writing, but do I have any legal rights?366031[/snapback] depends on the labor laws in your state and whether you had a witness when it was "promised" my guess is you don't have any rights

Alaska Darin Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 The best time to look for a new job is when you already have one. A word to the wise. There's no point in looking for a legal solution - you don't want to poison your employability somewhere else. Fug that wench - you can never trust her again. Move on as quickly as you can.
stuckincincy Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 I've insulted you?? Uh, when? 366045[/snapback] Uh, talk to your management. Maybe they picked up on the "Die Bunny Die".
BF in Indiana Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Ever consider becoming a professional dating coach?

No offense to women in power positions here, but I generally believed that men were more straight-forward, bot the stab you in the back type.

IBTG81 Posted June 23, 2005 Author Posted June 23, 2005 Ever consider becoming a professional dating coach? 366051[/snapback] What are the odds of two Ron Jeremy avatars back to back. Don't want to take your day job LA.

IDBillzFan Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Have you given any thought to having some poems published?
Alaska Darin Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Just quit your job and go live with BF. I'd almost be willing to bet we could pitch it to the networks and make you rich beyond your wildest dreams.

stuckincincy Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Now, I know I work for a non-profit, but I'm not THAT charitable. 366069[/snapback] Are your co-workers supportive of you?

I'd almost be willing to bet we could pitch it to the networks and make you rich beyond your wildest dreams. 366067[/snapback] I like it. I like. Stay with me now. I can see it clearly now. Two young football fans share an apartment over an Asian massage parlor but don't like each other. One has a secret internet life. By day, he's a sport-stat-spouting nudnik, and by night, the most obnoxious internet sports message board poster in the history of the world! The other has a thing for telephone poles, but is also a tortured soul, imprisoned in his own world of bad relationships and crappy jobs where he's forced to listen to Christine Aguillera music and wear a hood to work.. Throw in a wacky neighbor, make one of them gay, and put a gun on the table. Madcap comedy ensues. We'll call it: Gitmo, The Baron and A Very Happy Ending. Who's with me?
