30 fish a day in beautiful weather up next to god in the mighty sierra nevada's, floating around clear blue lakes in my float tube, smelling the pines in the cool mountain breeze....and all I can think of is the a$$hole boss who fires me after he calls up a possible employer and telling them I need "lots of supervision", this after I ran his fvcking company for two and a half weeks while he was in italy on vacation, what a nice guy. Glad to be home......I think.

Are you saying your current boss called a potential new employer? Then fired you? I couldn't figure out what you were saying.

Yeppers, that is what I am saying. He called a potential employer to give "his referral" and then that evening "let me go", nice huh? All the day before a much needed stress relieving vacation.:)

Sounds like a bitter jerk that was mad you were looking for another job, so he thought he could "punish" you by letting you go, and try to sabotage your chances at the new place at the same time.

I worked for a guy like that once. They never understand why they can't keep good people. I'm sure you'll get something quickly.

But it's nice that you had an enjoyable vacation. Vacation: good!

Thats it in a nutshell, it goes on and on unfourtunetly. Does anyone know which law it is that covers prospective employees and reference checks concerning disclosure? :D

The way I undedstand it when a company is called for a reference all they can say is &quot;Yes he/she worked here and this was his salary range&quot; but I'm not an expert...

I hope you get the better job and EMAIL your exboss thanking him for his reference...

Oh boy............he has told clients that I was never part of that company and any agreements made w/me were not made on behalf of that company, hence any payments due are my responsibility!?!!??!?!
One of the clients called me and asked whether the referral was good or bad, see he told this person he planned on giving me a bad refferal!:Q WOW! So I have spent the day lining up ducks and my wifes very rich family's lawer is going to have statements from at least two clients and possibly call up the prospective employer for a sworn statement. Then he calls me and wants to &quot;work it out as friends&quot;????? WTF????? Sorry, I am the kind of person that is as loyal a friend and employee as you'll ever find, but you fvck me and I will make sure that you never forget who the hell you fvcking messed with!:disgust:
