Recently lost a manager. Actually, his boss got removed as well. It was like having two Christmases in two weeks. Now our shop and department operate much smoother and happier.

My manager never should have been hired. When I was informed they got the job I thought it was a joke. But I tried to help get the guy on his feet and make him a success, but he just didn't have the brainpan for the job. It was beyond obvious. By the end, he was having constant outbursts, telling everyone to eat his dick, getting successive suspensions, blatantly lying to HR when there was irrefutable evidence against his statements.

When he put his two weeks in, he told some people that he might not leave. I told him I was making it my mission to ensure that he doesn't not walk out that door. Thankfully, he left. But, both he and his girlfriend have reapplied to an entry level position that has opened up do to someone (the person who should have been hired in the first place but because our director wanted a person he could push around in place) being promoted into his position. He was never a good worker in the first place, and his girlfriend was even worse.
