I worked for 6 years at Parker. (Name removed) and (Name removed) were my bosses-it was a living hell. Take (first boss's name) for instance-while interviewing female candidates he would stop by my door and wag his tounge around, making trips and being forced to listen to his favorite XXX songs by Nickleback. Sharing his incessant dreams about having sex with women other than his wife. The threatening e-mails every week that "your job was at stake" if you didn't do this or that.
Finally after 6 years and 6 very good reviews they bring me into the office and tell me that I have done some small things -they didn't say what and wondered if I still had the heart to do my job (my father died two months earlier). Then they give me a choice of a one last change of vague things to do and if I didn't do them they would fire me-no severance. Or I could take 2 months of severance-of course they required that I work 30 days first. What I choice I took the severance to get out of that cesspool.

So sorry about your father, and that they were so brain dead they could not tell that a person was grieving. I hope there is a special place reserved for them in the hell from which they came.

My condolences on your loss. You know what...and I really hate to say this...I wonder how much their job would suffer if someone close to them passed on? Self centered little bas_ards.

I'm curious as to which location of the company you were at? I do some business with them in the Baltimore, MD area.
