Found these stories on a website, and thought I'd share in case they
go away. Most are good reads.

Hi, You're Fired
----------------------------------------

My fiance worked for the company for about two years. He went in one
day to find out that he was fired. They said that they had complaints
about his work but no one told him any of this until they fired him.
They sent him to Washington with two hundred dollars for 14 days worth
of work. How was he supposed to sleep and eat off of two hundred
dollars? If I hadn't of gotten my taxes back then he really would not
have made it up there for that long. I still had to wire him money
though. Yeah the company paid it back after he got home but still. You
don't send someone up to do a job with out the right amount of money
to stay alive. Now that he no longer works. I have to support all five
of us on part time working pay. It is not enough to do anything on. I
can't afford to pay any of my bills so now I'm going in the hole when
we were just starting to get out of the hole. We were looking forward
to moving out of my parents house and into one of our own some day
soon. But no longer can we afford to do that.

So basically the company messed up my familys life really bad. And
they don't care. One boss said that he was doing great and another
said that he wasn't doing a great job so they fired him. No one talks
to anyone about what they are doing wrong they just fire you at will.
It is not fare. So what are we supposed to do now. If it were not for
my parents we would be on the streets with three children.

And does the company care not really.
