It's a private, not-for-profit agency that places people with no high school diploma or GED and a crinimal record into minimum wage, dead end jobs.

He's also made unwelcome and repulsive comments with sexual overtones to a number of posters, and asked every ridiculous question when he was job hunting (my two favorites, "Should I pick up the phone when it rings or let it go to voice mail," and "It's 20 degrees outside, should I wear a top coat to my interview or not?" (By the way--he was walking to the interview as he doesn't own a car.)

He got caught trying to collect more unemployment than he was due, and whined non-stop about having to eat Fruit Loops for dinner for a week before he got his first paycheck.

Do I need to go on?
Well...uh...errr...ummm...THANKS!

Frankly in your line of work, turnover is high and jobs are plentiful. I would have quit too.

That's not true at all. I look down on pathetic people with over-inflated egos who cause workplace drama by sticking their nose where it doesn't belong and are misogynistic sexual perverts, regardless of their income.

I saw it happen some years ago when the economy was healthy. At the end of his first day he said something about it being too far from home. But I think he got a better offer after agreeing to come to work.
