She interviewed well, got the job, showed up for her first day… and then asked one very important question: Where are all the men? Turns out, she had taken the job expecting a large company to be the perfect place to meet someone. There was just one problem: her department was almost entirely women. So she left. In Episode 49 of The Bad Hire, Ken, Emma, and Kyrie break down another round of unbelievable workplace stories involving bizarre motivations, expensive mistakes, open mic disasters, employee theft, fake credentials, and some truly unforgettable first days. You’ll hear: • A receptionist go on an office supply spending spree • A woman take a job because she wanted to meet men • An employee trash the boss without realizing everyone could hear • A booking agent redirect a client deposit into his own bank account • A forklift driver somehow get worse every single hour • A new hire completely fabricate his college education • An employee accidentally reveal a restraining order HR didn’t know existed • A call center employee take the job to sell products to coworkers • A technician insult a client while standing inside her bathroom Key Takeaways: • People don’t always take jobs for the reasons you think they do. • A great interview doesn’t guarantee a great employee. • Skipping normal hiring procedures can become expensive fast. • Résumés and credentials still need to be verified. • When someone starts showing red flags, pay attention to the pattern. 💸 Think you’ve heard worse?
