after my company was bought out by another, the new management were looking to show how tough they were. all sorts of anti union retoric was going around and indeed several people had been fired. i was given an impossible task to relabel old blueprints to new blueprints to the equipment in the field that had very little resembleance to either. i was being pressured to do this task quickly with out human error or i would be fired, so i quit, walked out that night. i got a phone call from our new vice pres and he wanted a meeting. i agreed to it fully intending to give them my corporate badge and keys and flip them off and go home un-employed. it turns out that he wanted to know why a 20 year employee with an outstanding work record and many operational accolades had quit and wanted me to reconcider and come back. hmmmm go figure. i regret EVER coming back but i only have 5 years till i retire so i guess it worked out. |
