Should You Say Anything After "Goodbye"


It is over.  You terminated an employee.  There were lots of issues leading up to the termination, not the least of which was the employee's inability to act appropriately under stress.  But, you gave her plenty of opportunities and you handled the termination by the book.  There is no need to worry about anything else happening with that employee, right?  Wrong

THE BLACKLISTING PROBLEM
BY
Don D. Sessions
May - June 1995


Very few employers would consider hiring you unless they check your past references first.  Employers are very concerned about the likelihood of potential litigation and costs if a new employee does not perform as hoped. The very slightest possibility of a problem is enough to      destroy your chances for employment.

A survey was done in March 1995 by documented Reference Check, a company that conducts thousands of employment reference checks every year.  Based on 1,000 random reports, they found that the careers most likely to get a negative reference are in education, health care, engineering and media.

(LUF Note:  This is the wake up call.   An excellent report showing a former employee taking the initiative to investigate himself through a background checking service and the out come.)

BLACKBALLED: A PERSONAL DRC EXPERIENCE


After working for the San Mateo county Sheriff's Office Forensic laboratory, I was unemployed for six months before deciding to attend business school at a cost of between $20 - 25,000.

It is now seven months after graduation and I am still unable to find gainful employment.  In total, I have been effectively unemployed for almost three and a half years.

I ask that a reference check be performed (using documented reference Check, see Employee University) as I neared graduation last December.  Unfortunately, I did not receive the results until three to four months later and so was unable to take preventative measures.

WILLAS SHAW EXPRESS BLACK BALLING DIRT BAGS MISTREATS AND ABUSES YOUNG TRUCKER, ELM SPRINGS INTERNET CONSUMER SUGGESTION ..WILLIS SHAW


I drove a truck for Willis Shaw for 10 months.  I turned over a trailer and I was fired at the end of March 2002.

Since then I have applied for numerous jobs, both driving and non driving and no one will hire me and they refuse to tell me why.

Before I started driving I never had any trouble getting a job.  A couple of companies I worked for before I started driving for Willis Shaw told me that if ever I wanted to come back to come on back because I was a good worker. But now they won't even talk to me.
