Heh! About a year and a half ago. That turned into a giant CF.
It seems the market research boys were using the "NEW MATH" when it came to the amount of travel I was in for. They said 50% at most, which is why I agreed to the position and it turned out it was closer to 95%. I told my regional supervisor in Seattle I would continue my employment with them if they stuck to their original agreement, but he wouldn't do it.
I called the corporate office down in Clearwater, FL the next day and told them they could hang their job where the sun doesn't shine and that they had 24 hours to come and get their company car off my property or it was getting the hook. The clowns even tried to bone me out of my last check to be pricks, but I still had one of their laptops and most importantly, several files of very sensitive information.
I called the Regional once again who was messing with me and told him they had 48 hours to FedEx down my check, or those files would pull a Houdini and disappear. I also explained that if they “got lost” and ended up in the wrong hands, it could cost them 200K in corrupted research. I had a check in my hand the next day.
