Just keep firing him.

Fuciing LOLD

[chino3]

Just keep firing him.

[dave.mc]

Fire the coworker again today and replace him with one of your cats. When you have the meeting with your manager tomorrow, take additional cats with you.

Film everything

[Pad264]

Just keep firing him.

Only course of action now.

[Kiop]

you have been cucked by HR
now he will stay and not play with the team, while you watch him cum and go

[Balls2walls]

This made me laugh, thanks OP!

[azakdan2682]

Bring him some candy, you will thank me later.

[HipHopLyrics]

Act like it never happened. Tell him you think he's been working really hard recently and his contributions are not going unnoticed.

[midcoastking33]

from firing to rehiring: a miscer's tale

[camerondex]

Just suck it up, be professional, and sit down at the meeting with your boss.
Apologize to him, and then tactfully inform him that his actions just don't jive with the direction the company is taking.
Then fire him too.

brb CEO 10k/day you're welcome

[AboveAverage]

ITT OP realizes he was given a meaningless title in lieu of a raise, and is powerless.

[dhawkeye1980]

Go in with your resignation letter typed up, give it to the owner and tell him if you are not in a position to pick who works on your team you do not want to work there anymore

[Aircommander91]

tell your boss you're going to make your agency great again.

and that coworker is a MESS, A BIG FAT MISTAKE. too low energy.

if he doesn't allow you to fire him,

nickname him Jeb or even Guacmole merchant.

[KlayBrah2]

inb4 OP is fired and his coworker is given a promotion

[Zere0wn]

This feels like a troll thread...

You should be asking yourself how the owner found out. It's possible other people on the team told him. In which case, you've got a potential mutiny on your hands.

How are your management skills?

[StateIron]

[Malfa]

Between you and notbadnotbrad, I feel like I've got my life pretty much together.


Thanks.

cracking up

[jyzzbrah]

Go into his office, pull out your dink covered in sticky notes, light it on fire, and yell "YOU'RE FIREDDDDDD!"

Really the only course of action left for you OP.

[ho_124]

Do you work at bestbuy or something?

lmfao. I can see this. Takes his best buy sales job too seriously and keeps telling his co-worker he isn't following the "protocol", when in reality it doesn't matter since it's just a bunch of BS rules from the best buy staff manual. Thinks he has the authority to fire someone but gets told to GTFO when he tries by the actual manager.

[Nicklol]

lol?

[IPoopStandingUp]

then jon gets home and finds out one of his cats fired a few of the other cats

[KurtGrizzly]

[Trapstar4.4]

Lold

Hopefully u get promoted. Op is is a born leader

It's an insurance brokerage.

This is sadly real. How can you and your team perform if there is one bringing the whole group down?

[turboface]

In for updates - big mistake OP.

As someone in the exact same position as you, I would have consulted with my higher up / HR before making a rash decision.

If you need a job tomorrow, I could use a car jockey.

[litljay]

Company has 11 employees. There is no "HR". I run almost all the day to day stuff. Figured this was well within my job description.

Without the ability to hire and fire, you are no longer an exempt employee and therefore are due all overtime hours worked at 1.5 times the normal rate of pay.

*Edit - in California under the Executive exemption. There is a computer software exemption also.

I'm salary, but only work 35 hours per week. Plus usually show up late and leave early. No way I'm getting overtime. lol
