What a cunt! :mad:
At least you saw him after the interview... I can't think that your mind would have been were it needed to be if you'd seen the tosser before hand! :-\
You know up until this point, I was trying to do the devil's advocate thing of trying to justify his actions by maybe saying he'd got wind that he was about to be made redundant or that he was there to try & give you a great reference in person. In the words of Norman Stone, 'what a piece of shit he turned out to be'. Don't do anything violent, the fact that he was your referee & applied will likely have set alarm bells ringing already. Then once you know whether you've got the job or not, go slash his tyres & smear shit on his windscreen.
What will be all the sweeter will be if you get the job ahead of your old boss. That would be incredible.
Also if you don't get the job, I'm fairly sure that on a employers reference they are not allowed to bad mouth you, only refuse to comment. If he has deliberately sabotaged your interview and chances, I'm pretty sure that legally you might actually have a case against him. I'm not sure, but I'm sure I've read a comparable story somewhere that resulted in a loss of earnings payout.
Oh and shit under car door handles is far better than on windscreen! ;)
Less chance it will get seen and more chance they will get it stuck right under their nails on the way to work in the morning. ;D
There was once a father who had a wild horse.His son thought to tame it and went out into the yard on his own,the horse threw him broke his arm and jumped the fence and escaped.
Everyone was sad except the father who said oh well we'll see what comes.
The local warlord soon came through the village and took to war each oldest son and the best horse from each house. He left this family, he wanted no man with a broken arm.
They lost the war and most of the men. The Fathers horse returned when the natural feed was down with a pregnant mare and his sons arm mended.
When a door closes another opens, dont miss the one thats opening by concentrating on the closed one for too long.
H can you give me his address please?
Nah, not quite ......... in the US and UK an employer is allowed to bad mouth you - but only if what they say is proveable and factually correct. For example, if you had a record that showed you were late for work 4 days out of 5 they could say your timekeeping was poor. If you had a series of complaints about you recorded on your file, they could say you were a poor teamplayer.
They could say none of those things (even if they were true) if they did not have the empirical facts and evidence to back up the statement.
Relax, chill and move to the next job interview. move on.
