To show you guys how well "liked" the guy that we fired yesterday was here in the plant, I give you an e-mail that was sent out by our QA Dept this morning. I X'd out the last names for safety. Read this, it's classic.




Gentlemen,

As you well know, The Company has suffered a great loss in the production area with the dismissal of Mr. Ken ****. When I say great loss to the production area, we actually mean the Quality Department as a whole. With this loss, we have found that our workload has been cut by more than 86.7% due to the lack of stupid questions, needless meetings, scrapped parts, numerous E-Mails, and excess time reading retarded, lame *** excused Non Conformance Reports. In light of these findings, we have determined that the following Lay-Offs and reassignments are needed:

Reassignment:
Rich *******: Senior "Gopher" and all around "Go get it Bitch".

Reassignment:
Tim ******: Assistant to the assistant that watches the new guy in Buffing polish parts(3rd shift)

Richard *****: Laid off

Reassignment:
Mike ********: SL-400 operator

One other Employee has made this list. Mostly because the majority of blame for this falls directly on his shoulders.

Reassignment:
Ryan ****. Trainer/SL-400
