Did Gordon Ever Call Gail?

I'm a big forgiveness guy... so I'm very impressed most have forgiven Dwill

I though have not. Too much nostalgia with Sloan - Raja claimed Dwill only mirrored the play that was called in the Chicago game before the half, ok ok.. but It happened more than that one time didn't it? So screw him I haven't forgiven him. Can you imagine Hood going rogue not running the plays Quin called then management just looked the other way?

Why do you hate Polynice? Also, Ostertag was perhaps frustrating from a fans' perspective, but he never had any bad interactions with fans or trashed the franchise in any other way than being lazy.

Amaechi for sure. Actually, he's more pathetic than he is hate-able. Anderson stung for a while but I'm way over that. I always thought he looked like Smokey from The PJs.

Why? He had a really terrific second stint with us.

For me personally hate is too strong of a word for any of them, except as a fan it is fun to hate on players that have wronged my team. I think that there are many of these players that either intentionally or not, really hurt Jazz nation with their actions or lack there of. In Ostertag's case he took a lot of time off where he didn't really even try to put in the effort and his contract was way bigger than he was. Some might feel the same about Kirlenko but I feel that he was never used correctly with the Jazz except maybe the one year he played power forward. Polynice did a lot of really dumb things off the court as well as just not being very good on the court. Amechi was just about the money and was an a$$ so good mention on him. I don't think Shandon really did anything wrong and I'm not sure why Crotty would be hated or Korver.

Let me explain about John Crotty.

Now do you get it?

The relationship between employee and employer is completely lopsided when it comes to hiring and firing. I think there are a lot of advantages to being an employee, you don't have to give any of those advantages up voluntarily. You can bet your *** your employer doesn't give up their power in order to be nice or considerate.

I'm retired now, but I learned early in life that the only right an employee had was the right to quit.

The two-week notice is a curtesy everyone should give their employer, if only to avoid being blackballed (and some employers will cut you a check for two-weeks pay and escort you out the same day).

The more experience I get, the more I agree with Bulletproof on this. Why is there an expectation on the employee to give notice when company after company will drop you instantly without a care. I've seen some good managers that will give fight for their people to have notice before being let go, but that is the manager and not the company. Do what is best for you, because that's exactly what the company will do in most cases, what's good for them, and drop you like a rock. At will state.

I am strongly opposed to the whole 2 weeks notice thing. I feel absolutely no obligation whatsoever to give 2 weeks notice in most circumstances.

One place I worked would walk you out the door the second you gave your two weeks notice. Most places I've worked, when they don't want you to work there anymore and decide to fire you, they might come to that conclusion days or even weeks before they actually do it. You show up to work on a Friday and instead of going to work they pull you aside, tell you you don't work there anymore. Escort you to gather your things and walk you out the door. Yet I'm supposed to give them 2 weeks notice? Yeah, no thanks. If it's convenient for me I'll do it. If not, I won't. If I feel like it will help my coworkers at all I would strongly lean towards giving notice, but I've never been in a situation in my adult life where I can be adequately replaced in 2 weeks.

At my current job, if I found a new place to work I'd take two-weeks off to coincide with when I start at the new place. I'd give the new place two weeks trial. If I liked it I'd wait to get paid for my vacation and let the old place know I wasn't coming back. If I didn't like the new place I'd just return to work at the end of my vacation and let the new place know I didn't like it there.

The relationship between employee and employer is completely lopsided when it comes to hiring and firing. I think there are a lot of advantages to being an employee, you don't have to give any of those advantages up voluntarily. You can bet your *** your employer doesn't give up their power in order to be nice or considerate.

I think it should be mentioned that your job and Hayward’s job are not comparable.
You don’t have a whole state worth of fans buying your jerseys, cheering for you and investing a lot of time and money into you.
Also, I think that if you were making millions from your employer and they were treating you like royalty and wanting to give you even more money and showing you tons of love to try to get you to stay, you might take 60 seconds and pick up your phone to call them and say something, anything.
60 second phone call isn’t two weeks notice. I bet you could manage to do that if your employer and fans treated you like the jazz did.

I kinda agree, ive seen people forced into retirement due to others poor decisions but they needed a fall guy,

The more experience I get, the more I agree with Bulletproof on this. Why is there an expectation on the employee to give notice when company after company will drop you instantly without a care. I've seen some good managers that will give fight for their people to have notice before being let go, but that is the manager and not the company.

Hey, I'm not disagreeing with you. The fact I'm retired wasn't by choice -- I was the scape goat for poor engineering that cost the company a few million. Yeah, I could have caught the mistake, but it never occurred to me that the engineering staff could be so damn stupid and incompetent. Unfortunately, the company had already fired the engineering manager four months earlier and the project engineer and process engineer a month earlier for unrelated reasons, which left only me or the plant manager to take the fall when the magnitude of the engineering mistake became apparent.

Oh, well, I hated that job.

I think framer can clear it up. #pagingframer

That comparison is straight up stupid. There is virtually nothing to compare.

When I quit walmart when i was 17, I had the decency to call sam walton's wife personally.

Also anyone who hates Kanter is a joyless freak. He rules. Just a fun guy. He's not even good and it helped our franchise when he wanted a trade. Imagine if we had paid him.
