Things that piss you off.

[Grunt]

Maybe he offered the position without approval from the comittee/management?

Did he actually tell you you had the job yesterday?Or that you had teh job if approved? There is a big difference. He may not have justifyed the position enough for them to take on an apprentice.

[ParMaster]

I had the job yesterday. He told me my starting date, hours, pay, everything.

[Scoot]

Sometimes bosses (or supervisors in this case) think they are far more important than what they are. He obviously doesn't have the authority to hire someone.

Bad luck, hope it get's sorted out though.

Maybe your school marks are too low?

[chappy1970]

That F&*king c$%t of a siren that has been ringing outside my office window for the last 45 mins, it is making my already f%^king annoying migraine 10 x worse........

[ParMaster]

No.

The super wants me, the committee don't. And they won't say why... **** em.

[Yossarian]

No not **** them, that is what working life is about. It doesn't have to make sense or be fair it just is. Which is why if you are smart you give yourself the best chance of getting any job. And you know how you do that?

[KristianJ]

Pup, did you receive an offer letter with the stuff you've mentioned above, or was it just word of mouth from the super? If you'd received an offer letter and signed it, then you might have some sort of claim that you've entered a contract, but otherwise I'm not sure what else you could do...

[Yossarian]

The fact he is not old enough to enter into legally binding contracts....

[Johnny Canuck]

Maybe they didn't want someone that could only cut fairways 200m, straight as a gun barrel.

[ParMaster]

Kristian, he said to me yesterday that I had the job if I wanted it. And that I would recieve a letter in the next day/2 days to sign with all the information.

And yes Yoss, **** them. I've been ****ed around by the management of the club before, and even this time they've tampered with my application. Now I get the job, and then the management again refuses for me to start work, even though the super wants me.

[Johnny Canuck]

What has happened in the past that would lead to you being blacklisted by management? Surely there is some sort of back story here that you are not telling us.

I wonder if golflink somehow implicated

[Moe Norman]

clearly there is more to it, divulge!

Pup, what happened before at that Club to warrant this sort of outburst? Is it one of the placed that reprimanded you for poor behaviour/manners etc? Or maybe they just don't want someone who has such a high golf internet profile ie GCA?

[Dotty]

Q1. Could a Muirfield board member browse the posts made on a public forum ?

Q2. Could another club's committee (looking for prosepective employee) browse the posts made on a public forum ?

[KristianJ]

I would guess that potential employers could go to any length that they needed to...

Pup, those are reasonably serious accusations, especially about Muirfield tampering with your application. Seems way too complex a situation to blur it further with emotion driven vitriol - you'd be best seeking some good advice from someone you know personally.

Yoss, I thought that employment contracts were enforceable for minors...then again, I'm thinking back to a semester of business law that I did back in 2005, so it could have changed between then and now. Either way, would seem that this aspect's now irrelevant.

[zacdullard]

That's no good Pup. What are your plans if it doesn't work out?

One particular member of the club has some beef with me, but I do not know why. As far as I am aware, I haven't done anything to warrant this treatment.

I wonder if golflink somehow implicated

I wouldn't rule it out.

clearly there is more to it, divulge!

There is. But Muirfield won't say why.

I'm not sure Jack. Not sure about the behaviour bit, but I haven't had anybody talk to me about it at the club.

Serious but true. That's what they did.

That's no good Pup. What are your plans if it doesn't work out?

I just need the job. There really is no backup plan now...

[ParMaster]

Jack, that is after he puts all the toys back in the cot.

WTF??

[Grunt]

Pup, piece of advice I saw delivered to a kid (about 7- at NSW animal welfare league when we bought our puppy 10 years ago. he was going on like a good sort about how we bought his dog and throwing a real good tantrum.
The little old lady volunteer (probably about 70) pulled him aside and said this;

"Listen to me, this is not the last time in life you won't get what you want, so deal with it!"

Rachelle and I were gob-smacked but I will never forget that piece of advice.

take that advice pup

[ParMaster]

Fair enough.

[Yossarian]

Do you mind if I ask what your folks think about this? And if you are asking them for advice?
