Maybe I shouldn't have started this blog now, not with everything that's been going on.

Today I have an update on the "boss-former employee", or should I say epilogue, dare I hope.

Former employee finally agreed to be sent to another branch, not insisting on returning to the branch anymore where he had already been pretty comfortable without doing a lot of work.

After a few days, he asks to be transferred again, because he had to work on six clients at the new branch.

You'd think he'd be happy to have so much exposure to a lot of potentially returning customers.

Anyway, so he gets moved to the main branch now, something the previous boss thought he would never do because he would be under the watchful eye of the original trainers.

And apparently for some time he did work out, showing that he had more aptitude for initiative and following orders without complaint than had been previously demonstrated.

Until one time comes when, near the end of a particularly stressful day, the head employee asks them who will be handling the latest client. They are all tired, but the first employee says in return that according to their schedule of rotation, he is not next in line.

But when former employee is asked, he also declines, but gives his reason as being he hasn't had dinner yet.

Of course, head employee tells the manager when she arrives, and she yells at everyone if she is the one who is supposed to entertain clients who show up since they apparently don't want to.

Now, a day or two after that, one of the other applicants from former employee's home town is supposed to return.

Instead, it's former employee who returns, after having been sacked, and not even transferred to yet another branch.

Points of irony: first, he was supposed to visit the branch of his first boss on his day off, even though when asked by one of the current employees if he'd go, he says, "I don't want to, the people there are mad at me."

The choice of words says that he still believes he didn't do anything wrong, that it's the actions and decisions of the others that has led to not being able to return to work there.

Good thing he was fired just one day before that fateful visit.

Session 2661 sincerely wishes that that will be the end of that, and the book will be closed. Class dismissed.
