Teresa May is shocked at his speech

Sorry to say, but I once had to fire a man because I didn't wear a suit. He was a Specialist who was on a new refinery site to help start-up a very special piece of equipment.

Twice previously, I had talked to him about the fact that I hadn't seen him out on site inspecting and preparing the kit he was there to commission and his reply on both occasions was "I am a Supervisor, not a worker."

I explained that I was paying for a "Worker" not a "Supervisor" so after another week of not seeing him on site I had his plane ticket in the back-pocket of my jeans when I went to talk to him.

After he finished the "I'm a Supervisor ..." statement with "... and my Manager will back me." I'm afraid that I lost it. :whistle:

I handed him his plane ticket and said "When you see Doctor Winkler in Frankfurt, give him my regards and tell him I want him here to talk about your replacement by next Monday at the latest."

His initial response was "You know Doctor Winkler?" (his manager) and after my nod he carried on with "Who are you?"

I must admit that my flabber was gasted! :doh:

I pointed out that I was the man that hired him and I was the man that was firing him, and his immediate response was "Why don't you wear a suit?"

I made damn sure afterwards that everyone realised "The man in jeans and a tee-shirt is in charge; and he's even in charge of the man in the office who wears a suit!" :thumb:

But in all honesty it was my own failure! :doh:
