Gofuckyourself.com: pretty pathetic story
 

I own a small adult call center (1-900 lines) and my main guy, my protege if you will was moving up really fast. After the first month I promoted him to floor manager and eventually became my right hand man and office manager. He was getting paid a very good base salary of $60k a year with incentives out the ass. All in all, he was clearing close to $100k a year. He is 32 years old with a wife and two beautiful girls.

Then came GFY!

He would come in to work in a daze and almost always late because of the lack of sleep from the night before. If any of you have ever worked in a call center then you know that its a high energy place with a lot of stuff always going on. There were even times where I had to drive to his house to get him because he wouldn't answer his phone. When I got there he was unkempt and pretty much in mass disarray. I gave him warning after warning and he just brushed them off and continued to let a fucking message board wreck his life.

Needless to say, I let him go yesterday and it was one of the toughest things I ever had to do. To see someone that young with that much promise ruin a great paying career over a message board is a fucking disgrace! His wife works as a insurance claims specialist making probably $40k a year and they will eventually lose their house, cars, and pretty much everything else.

I feel so guilty for letting him go but what else could I do?!?!? Has anyone else ever encounted something similar to this with their employees or friends? It truly is a tragedy.

Moral of the story...if you have never visited gofuckyourself.com then don't start. Even if you want to go there "just to see what the hype is about", don't do it! Would you try crack or heroine once to see how it is? That's the first step to addiction.

I feel absolutly fucking horrible!!!!!!!!!! :Oh crap

I hope this is a joke

are you being serious?

how come someone ruin their life on gfy :\

all vices are good in moderation!

It can be addicting..maybe a support group is needed

Totally fucking sad..

Thats really sad, hope I never become an addcit :pimp

This is hilarious.

lol
Stupid idiots ...

I agree GFY is addicting, but WOW prolly has the upper hand

Damn! :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

If it were GFY he was addicted to then I would understand. At least he'd be networking in a forum that MIGHT be beneficial to the company not slaying Orcs and what-nots to get neat armor and higher levels of mana. :helpme

:1orglaugh

A lot of spoof threads today...

Is this some sort of joke? :helpme

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery. :winkwink:

My cow died last night.

OK I'll try to remember to never go to GFY... Txs for the advice :1orglaugh

Congrats on the beginning of his new career as a sig whore.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

i don't get it. he couldn't stop posting?

no, we are talking about Manowar...

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

GFY owned him :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

guys, this is an imitation of the WoW thread...

PLEASEEEEEEEEEE :1orglaugh

Am I losing it or was the exact same story used about WoW additction?

HAHA !! You know this entire sig whore thing is entirely Lars fault imo, hes the one that started off buying everyones sigs one month :1orglaugh

That is why the boss makes more money than the workers. Dedication to the job and because you have to make the tough decisions.

I would not feel bad at all, that guy was systematically destroying his life and soon he would be systematically be destroying YOUR life as well as those of your workers. Your job is to destroy anything that would hinder the prosperity of your company which provides for your workers, you did your job because he did not do his.

If this was just a joke, good story :1orglaugh

wow did take up alot of my time too when I started playing it, now days I only play like a couple of hours a week

Its all about time management.

sounds like my life

Funny spoof.

I think it was more than GFY that fucked his life up...sounds like he needs a doctor visit.

this has to be a joke. If not I doubt it was GFY that fucked up his life,that might of been the excuse he used. lol

Shhhhhhhh :winkwink: :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Sorry Corey, I showered, shaved and put on a tie, and I'll never play warcrack... uh, post on gofuckyourself, ever again I swear.

Can I have my wife back?

fucking idiot

Nice story

I am addicted to this board as well... lol!

that's a parody on the WOW thread :thumbsup

GFY can be addictive. There are lots of good connections here.

:)

what's his user name ?

Wow that SUCKS, it can be addictive, but to that point? His wife didnt catch on or care that this was going on? She musta known he was slacking & up all night etc... ?

<--- ownage
I just read the other thread on WoW..

nice lol

all I can say is WOW ;)

Thanks. That was a good 'drink my coffee' tale.....nice spoof on the WOW thread.

call centers suck. I managed one for 3 years and even with only having to deal with high priority callers I was swamped for my entire 10 hour shift every day. :(

ummm ok,
