Have You Ever Been Fired From a Job?
teef replied to Halloween Land's topic in Off the Wall Archives
thanks foxx. we do what we can. it ended up being the best thing to happen for me. i bought my own practice months later, and two weeks ago we moved into our new building. i own the land, the building, and everyone inside works for me. i even created a space for my lab guy who pays me rent. i'm now totally autonomous and i'm never going back. i've been very, very lucky. -

Have You Ever Been Fired From a Job?
teef replied to Halloween Land's topic in Off the Wall Archives
only once, but i was an an adult in my professional phase of life. i was working a very swanky practice in the area was we were growing faster than we thought. I was in line for a partnership, and things were moving forward...until the practice appraisal came back. to make a very long story short, the owner did not think the appraisal was enough for his practice, and increased the amount considerably, (6 figures considerably). we started to have "discussions" about that number, and it got uncomfortable. the owner had a very nice lifestyle, and was getting himself into debt...especially with the IRS. the consultant who appraised the practice actually called me one night and told me i'd be paying his debt, and not to do it. this is unusual because they're supposed to be an impartial party. it was the wednesday before thanksgiving, and i got a call from the owner. i was done. he didn't like how our discussions were going, so they were over and i was out of a job. i went from being inches away from a partner to having nothing. on top of that, i didn't want to tell anyone because my brother and his wife were announcing they were pregnant with the first grandchild in our family, and i didn't want to take away from it. it's been the only time in my life that i've been in a deep depression. -

this is exactly what's going on. i'd do exactly this, and threaten to light up his online reviews. those things have become shockingly important. -

i have a few from each stage of my life that i keep in touch. the two guys from grade school and high school, a handful of guys from college, and a handful of guys from grad school. i see the grade/high school guys the most due to location, but we try to keep in touch. -
simple takes are fine. that's not exactly what was going on. you did something whacky and was called out on it. that's all. i think 99% of us on here know that allen needs to improve. it's obvious. most of us just aren't willing to manipulate stats to take away from the kid. i'm not sure scott would take away a 50 yr play to prove a point. that's not his thing.
