Just had a friend tell me the funniest story I've heard today.

New ownership is coming into his place of employment. Awhile back he had an 'issue' with the receptionist that was documented by HR. In lieu of having the new ownership see this, he went in earlier one morning this week, he actually had a key to the office, and grabbed the paperwork and burned it.

Agree/Disagree? Any better stories out there?

Tell your buddy he can't draw UE when he gets fired.

Also tell him to stop hitting on receptionists. Never get your meat where you make your bread.

I know some dudes who broke into their math professor's office at 2am on the Sunday before Mardi Gras to change grades. The TA and his girlfriend showed up in the middle of this. When the door opened, one guy decked the TA and they bolted, leaving the girlfriend screaming murder. They hid in a dumpster until the morning while LSU PD stormed Lockett.

My guess is the TA was about to nail his girlfriend in the professors office.

Bad timing for everyone all around.

Why didn't he also give himself a raise? I mean if you're going to go for it, you may as well go for broke

Not me, but I know someone who collaborated with another employee who works in HR to get her non-compete taken out of her file because she was going work for a competitor.

Maybe. We're not talking a 1,000+ person company, more like 40+ employees. Everyone involved in the incident has since left and been replaced, so he's really the only one left with a first hand account of said 'issue'.

I doubt they logged it on a computer.

I do not, but I would like a copy a document from a previous job for review. Normally o would call for such a situation, but it's not that easy

I've taken my non-compete before. There was only a hard copy & they kept it in the file cabinet that was shared by everyone. They were so unorganized that they prolly thought they lost it anyway

Edited because newcomers are responding to something that has been addressed.

I get it. The internet was wrong. LAWD.

I wouldn't bank on that. I've seen people taken to court and pushed out of their new job over this.

Back in the early eighties, my cousin worked as a loan officer in Pontchartrain Bank (Tom Benson's bank). He could never work in a corporate situation because he just basically does what HE thinks is right.

Well, he had a dust up with his manager prompting his boss to write him up copying HR and Tom Benson. This was before email so they placed the letters in everyone's mail slot. My cousin subsequently just lifted all of the memos out of each person's mail slot.

The axe came down with the quickness.

How the frick did he think he would get away with it.

This is only about 100% wrong.

I'm glad people think that, though. They always just sign them.

Quickly and easily.

Motion for summary judgment.

The ex-employee also (can be made to) gets to pay all the legal bills.

Try to fight a well designed non-compete and let us know how it works out.
