Willie: Yet Another Open Letter, This Time For The Lunch Offender
C’mon, dude. The new Willie is putting a lot of work these days. I sweat through my suit every single day because I believe in being successful at what I do, and increasing the company’s bottom line. The only period of solace that I get during the day is that hour (or less) that I [...]
Willie:Open Letter To The Dude That Came To Work Sick
Dear Ol’ Dude: Just for the record, we’re still cool. I know that I have trouble remembering your name, but i’ll eventually get it. Anyway – here’s my gripe: While I can appreciate the fact that you work just as hard as anyone in this building, there are certain times where you just have to [...]
Willie: Open Letter To The Young Folks At Work
Dear young people at the job: I wanted to take a few moments to share some of my new found universal wisdom with you. Because of my recent enlightenment and current probational status, i’ve learned to look at the workplace in a completely different light. I was once where you are: young, spirited, vibrant, eager [...]
Willie: Sorry – I Didn’t Want To…
I am riddled with guilt today. Yesterday I commented that I was looking forward to a 14 hour workday because 2 of my coworkers called in. Well, the company sought to make me more of a man and tacked 2 more hours on to that. Thus, my work day began at 7 am and ended [...]
Willie: Thank You For Calling In
The last day of every month is a busy time at the company that I work for. Our sales quotas are broken down to a monthly cycle, so the last business day of the month is when most salespeople try to cram in as much work as they can to either hit their goal or [...]
Willie: I Am Thankful For “Call Night”
“Call Night.” Two of the most dreaded word in the world of sales. Every sales job that i’ve had, including this one, has required me to occasionally participate in the idiotic ritual of “dialing for dollars”. Today, my boss has decided that we need to stay for an extra 3 hours after work to drum [...]
Willie: My Response To The “Cease And Desist” Letter
I got a letter from the company the other day. I opened and read it. It said… well, you saw what it said. Here’s my HR-approved, legally safe response to the cease and desist letter served by my employer.
Willie: Cease And Desist
You may have noticed that I didn’t post anything on Monday. That’s because I spent all day at HR dealing with this “cease and desist” letter that I received from my job. I’ll have a response tomorrow. Full text after the jump:
Just To Get In The Pants (Willie)
First day back from training, and my punk ass boss is on the sack again… He tells me that I need to “step up my production” this week because of the 2 days in training. I still have to meet my weekly goals or whatever. What he doesn’t understand is, I have two gripes about [...]
Being Re-trained Part 2 (Willie)
Today i’m going to conclude my “retraining” arc with a couple of clowns from my training class. The Germophobe- I had the pleasure of sitting next to a woman who carried around a 20 oz container of hand sanitizer at all times. No, this isn’t travel size – this is like a half gallon of milk [...]
Being Re-trained Part 1(Willie)
So here’s the deal: As I said in my intro video, I work in sales for this wack little regional company. Every few months or so, they come up with a new “selling method” that they want us to employ. Which means that every few months i’m taken out of the office for nearly a [...]
My First Job (Willie)
I decided that i’d use my first official post to tell you how the saga of William Q. Turner began. It’s a story that needs to be told, because it foreshadows all of my experiences with future whoredom: I became eligible for gainful employment nearly half a lifetime ago, when I turned 16. To say [...]
Meet Willie.
My name is Willie. The good folks at CorpWhore.com invited me to their wonderful, yet utterly depressing site to share my experiences with you. See, I hate my job. I hate my job more than anything that I have ever hated. More than life itself. I’m on a career path to nowhere. I describe the [...]
