Remember that problem employee I had last year?

[MeanLaureen]

If you followed my saga of the nutso assistant I had last year that harassed me, tried to get me fired by filing false complaints, threatened me etc. among other things.. you'll love this.

My boss stopped by and said she received a call from my former boss who changed to another district and that she said she received a letter in the mail and was wondering what went on. Apparently, this nutcase wrote her a 4 page letter saying that his real estate venture (aka.. took the class but never did anything past that) didn' work out and he's still without a job and times are getting very hard... poor poor him.. so....

COULD SHE WRITE HIM A REFERENCE???!?!?!?!?

My current boss told the other supervisor... "DON'T. YOU. DARE. GIVE. HIM. ANYTHING!!!!"

Can you imagine having the nerve to ask someone from a company that fired you for harassment of employees, management and customers to write you a reference????

I guess he found out that milking unemployment as far as it would take him would bite him in the butt when it came time for it to run out and him to get a job.

Ahh.. lovin' the last laugh.

OMG!!!

That man needs to get a real life! I love when karma comes around and we get to see it! Keep watching, I am sure there will be more!

 

[Keli]

Lauri be careful with this guy. He really seems like a nutjob and if I recall you had some worries about your personal safety. I hope you never hear from him again.

 

[disneynutt1225]

Wow, I can't believe the nerve he has! But, I agree with the sentiment to be careful - this guy is definitely a few fries short of a happy meal.

 

[snowwhitesmom]

As someone told me once, Lauri - "Revenge is sweeter than Christmas" - I hafta admit - it was.
How are you feeling these days?

 

[agnes!]

maybe he's a few bricks shy of a full load

or

the lights are on but NOBODY'S home

or

he's nutty enough for an entire fruitcake

or

"The Smithsonian called...they want their Strange Brain back".

or

...?

Seriously, I agree with the sentiment of being careful. This guy must be one of the most psychotically self-deluded individuals I have ever heard of.

agnes!

this is exactly why the place i worked for would'nt say a word about former employees. we told them to hold onto their copies of performance reviews and submit them as personal references (and told them to advise a potential employer that they were free to contact us and verify the policy).

since i had to retire out because of my threatening 'nut case' employee before they FINALY canned him i don't know if he's pulled this stunt-but i did have a co supervisor who had supervised an absolute nightmare of a guy (prone to throwing chairs and once an entire desk at people) who had the audacity to ask if based on his court/employer mandated 'anger managment training' she'd be willing to verify his claims to a potential new employer that he had 'training and expertese in interpersonal communication far in excess of other employees within his job classification' (he also based his constant run-ins with h/r and the district attny's office to claim he had professional experience with personnel matters involving legal issues ).

 

[Shugardrawers]

It's really too bad the company can't write a frank, open and honest reference for him. It'd be a wonderful read and his next employer could really use the heads up

 

[minniecarousel]

whoa! Yeah, I remember you telling us about that nut! Pretty nervy of him.

 

[Meezers]

OMG....I had wondered what happened?!

What goes around comes around....in this case silence should be shouting louder than the written word!

 

[MeanLaureen]

Yeah, you guys are right. If he's delusional enough to think that someone associated with the company would give him a reference after what he did, he's delusional enough to strike out at me as he gets more and more desperate for money.

It's kinda scary

 

[Meezers]

Please tell me he doesn't have access to your home address? If so a self installed alarm system might be a good idea...just my paranoid self talking!

 

[Tigger&Belle]

What an idiot! Yep, too bad you all can't write exactly what you think about him. Of course many, if not most employers simply verify employment information and don't say anything about what kind of an employer someone was. Steer clear of this guy!

 

[liamsaunt]

I remember following your saga about the horrible man you worked with. I am glad it worked out OK for you--he seemed really, really weird, to say the least.

Do you remember the episode of Sesame Street where Oscar the Grouch went on a tirade about some person or another that made him mad? Some of Oscar's gems:

"His elevator doesn't go all the way to the top!"

"His river doesn't run all the way to the sea!"

Maybe those are the quotes you can recommend that your boss/supervisor use if they get reference checks on this "gentleman" in the future.

Unfortunately I hosted most of the company functions at my house - so he knows where I live.

hey I did a few searches and come up with a pic of the guy, better be carful his eye is kind of scary

[momrek06]

Ahhh...Lauri...well the one saying that comes to mind...

To the Dude:...."get to steppin' and don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya"....

That eye is pretty scary, but I think I could take him. One good poke right there in that big old eyeball and he's down for the count!
