Here’s a story.
A girl, let’s call her Helga, decided some weeks ago to leave the company in which she is currently employed at, in search of a better bigger paycheck. Her friend, let’s call him Drew, referred her and anoher friend (let’s call her Allah) to the company he works for. Let’s call this company Company S.U.WTF. (S for suxxorz, U for Unprofessional, and WTF for Whiskey Tango Foxtrot).
Now Company S.U.WTF. first called Allah, and to make a sad story short, she was not hired.
Company S.U.WTF. called in Helga for an initial interview with Recruiting, and was set up with a FINAL interview with one of the department heads. And then Company S.U.WTF. called up Helga while she was at the beach last weekend, scheduling ANOTHER FINAL interview with the same dude who interviewed her.
She shows up at Company S.U.WTF., was met by a confused man: Didn’t I interview you already?
Helga: Yes, but S—y called me up last Monday and set me up with a final interview?
Helga was told to sit in some teeny-weeny office (a cubicle, more like it) and waited for a lifetime (okay, so it was about 10 minutes, but when you’re doing nothing— just staring at photos and certificates, it does seem like a fucking lifetime. I was half expecting for my grandkids to call me up for a visit), and then was told he (Department Head Man) would see her in 10-15 minutes, and she could go down for a smoke if she wanted to. She does. She comes back, runs into Department Head Man as she steps out of the elevator.
Department Head Man apologizes, says the HR department will be contacting her to finalize her employment.
Helga: So I’m hired?
DHM: Yes.
So Helga was hired right outside the elevator lobby. Whoop-de-do! She goes home, and at 8am, the HR department of Company S.U.WTF. calls her up to schedule a 2pm contract signing.
Helga goes back to Company S.U.WTF., signs the contract, drafts her resignation letter, and celebrates by watching House on DVD while eating cracker crumbs and pancit canton. She would start working for Company S.U.WTF. on November 20.
Saturday night, she wakes up, checks her phone for messages and finds that someone with a Sun Cellular number texted her. So management decided to cancel hiring for the November 20 date and would resume hiring NEXT year, January. NEVERFUCKINGMIND that contracts have been signed, resignations announced, resignations drafted, moms and bosses and co-workers informed— Helga was fired even before she has started her training for Company S.U.WTF. Oh, and they’d call her next year.
Helga’s mom is asking for her copy of the contract, so Helga and Helga’s mom could consult a lawyer.
This song is so cool.
Hi, my name's Helga Weber and welcome to my personal site. I'm 23. My first socio-political scandal will happen at the age of 35 and will include men, sushi, an African country, and lots of money. My lover is the greatest. 
Hey! Great blog you have here. Thanks for visiting mine
Looks like you’re really taking this seriously ..That is a very unorthodox way to kill yourself though. Usually people cut their wrists not their tongue
….nice blog btw
whoa. that sucks about your “job”. GAH. you were fired before you even started. and they didn’t even CALL you?!? wtf?
‘ang SAKLAP naman. SUE THEM! ang daya. ano ba sabi sa contract? peke un? SUE THEM.
totally unprofessional. i bet they’d tell you you weren’t really fired. its just that you’d be coming in next yesr (jan) instead of november. hopefully its stated in the contract that you signed when you will start.
smh. some companies are crazy…that’s not cool what they did to you. :(
i already knew the story so i just enjoyed the reading and i laughed all blog long haha. not for the troubles of course
are you serious? I could understand if they were hiring anyone ELSE after nov 20th but how do you un-hire someone? Err. Ok. I’m sorry you had to deal with er. Company S.U.WTF.
is that a pair of scissors…on your tongue?? =\
aww!
bakit naman sila ganon?! wala pa ngang nangyayari sa inyo then bigla nila kayong paaalisin? napaka-unprofessional naman nila. sabi nila nov20 kayo magsisimula then imo-move nila… :p
well, just don’t cut your tongue ate… hehe :D that picture really creeped me out!
Hi Helga! Tnx for visiting my site. So u have a house in La Union? Wow! How about we teach u surfing lessons in xchange for a free stay at ur place? Hehehe…=)
Anyway, ur picture there is quite scary… God, I hope u won’t do anything like that… I’m sure ul find a better job soon. :-)
Whoa! Talk about unprofessionalism!
And WTF is with the pic?!
oh jeez. what the hell was that? could we launch an all out smear blog campaign against this wretched company?
can i see real blood next time? hehe. kidding. hang in there.
get your lawyer they can’t do that once a contract has been signed. argh someone did this to my fiance years ago and ended up making us lose our apartment because he did like you did put in a notice and quit and then got a card in the mail saying sorry we choose not to hire you. that’s just so unprofessional but he didn’t sign anything like you. fight it i would.
what kind of company does that?
show the contract sweetie. kick ass.
yikes. that sucks. i never thought anything like that could happen. i’m so sorry to hear that from you.
i hope things goes well..
naknamputha dami fans ah. nagfefeeling.i think your blogger friends are chaka and poor. joke. they are just ugly. (maybe some are poor)
how classic. vitriol for sympathy hits? haha
