Bob Wins! (for those of you who haven't been here before, this is a multi-part post)
Ok Bob, you win! You made me say "uncle".
I get home and check my email a few hours after posting about the contest and it get hit with this! I laughed until a had spit strings. I laughed until I hurt.
So what's it gonna be Bob-- Shirt or Fez? Tough decision, I know. Shirt? Or Fez? (as the Jeopardy theme plays softly in the background) ______________________________________________
Now hopefully I'll be able to finish the initial story and I won't mind facing my blog anymore. The close to this damned thing has been like a rock that I couldn't move. Not that it's all that monumental or anything, I just realized well after I posted the damned thing that it was boring and it was old news. Anyway, here goes...
Actually, the gist of this story wasn't to bitch, moan and groan about how shitty the company had been.
That would've been to easy.
The reason I wanted to share this whole thing was that the company actually did something worth mentioning. Something completely "stand up". A real live commendable action.
(I'm going to really "brevi-tize" it) A few days after I sent the letter. I received a call from the district manager. A few days after that, the regional vice-president of the company flies in to apologize face-to-face. No excuses. No ramble-on bullshit. Just a true, sincere apology and a request that I stay with them (my choice... for free no less) until they worked through the problems.
The v.p.? Hell for all I know he may have been the janitor in a tie, but after all that time, after all the hassle somebody "Heard Me."
