When someone hires a reporter, they check references and ask for clips and writing samples. When they hire a stringer, they want clips and writing samples. When they hire a copy editor, they give them a test to make sure they know their grammar and spelling and they have to prove that they can edit copy.
Makes sense, right?
So...when they hire someone for ME...WHY THE FUCK CAN'T THEY SEE IF THEY CAN FUCKIN' TYPE????
And...if they're not gonna make sure...then let ME interview 'em. Spelling COUNTS. Typos COUNT. 'Cause if they fuck up, I've gotta fix it. And at 11:30 on a fuckin' Friday night, I ain't got TIME to be running around behind some fuckin' twinkie, cleaning up her shit.
"Are you the Lisa that's gonna be training me tomorrow?"
"Yup."
"Oh, kewl. Sa-weet."
'kewl. Sa-weet.' This is NOT a sixteen-year-old twinkie. This is a twinkie by assignment rather than designation.
This is the same woman who is STILL spelling Hilltop Baptist "Hilltop Babtits". Who doesn't space between ANYTHING. "Hilltop Babtits at Calahan(Cahalan)4:00p.m. (and, for the record, it's Calhan...NOT CALAHAN).
Repeatedly. And what happens when I point it out to my boss? When I spend four hours going through the shit that she's typed, fixing as many of the mistakes as I could find?
I come in tonight and SHE'S DOING THE SAME SHIT!!!!!!!!
Are they TRYING to drive me crazy?
:crazy:
