With this thread, I have been able to get several management people interested in this site.
I just had to see if a management person could get fired for "questioning revenue", so I asked some management people that I have known for a while.....and trust.
Their take on the reason for termination was much like all the other posts in response to firedupswife: there is some other reason. She doesn't have the whole story. They did get on to me for giving her a hard time, and maybe we should all back off. That would have to be a hard time for their family, regardless of the reason.
According to them, all revenue is reported through our billing systems. If the person that was fired worked there, they reasoned that there was no way someone with an office job was working long hours! Also, a customer would have paid too much for us to have too much revenue. That wiped that one out for us.
Another scenario they talked about was a person in sales. There again, revenue is generated by our billing systems, so that would be hard to do.
They did think that formerbrown's attitude about their EDR process was ridiculous. They told me that it was much like the grievance procedure, and it works if you are innocent. Apparently formerbrown did something he/she shouldn't have. They did think that firedupswife's husband should try it.
firedupswife: we can't figure it out! Keep us "posted!"
