[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having managed many people over the past twenty years, I’d say she’s lying. But probably for good reason.[/quote]

Why do you think she’s lying? [/quote]

Because it came up too suddenly and very few people’s lives are flexible enough to just pick up and move like that. She planted the seed on Friday to be able to give the excuse on Monday. I’ve had something similar happen to me (only once in my career) and later learned the new employee had just shifted to another job that got her an offer a day after she’d started with us. Didn’t take it personally but it was very frustrating.[/quote]

Companies do all sort of stringing people along and will dump employees in a heartbeat to maximize shareholder profit. So I can’t say I blame someone for taking a better job that comes along.

And perhaps she did get a job offer out where her FIL lives. Perhaps they had been toying with the idea of re-locating but it wasn’t lining up and then all of a sudden he got sick and a job offer out there came through. People have to live their lives for themselves, not some boss they barely know.[/quote]
