Hello fellow GC Haters!

Although I'm new to this forum. I was well aware of its existence for a very long time.
Now that I am here, I can share my story....

As you probably have surmised from the title, something bad may have happened to me today. In fact, quite the contrary, I was fired today!!!
I know what you're thinking, "How is getting fired a good thing?" Well, I'll tell you why: because now I can start collecting unemployment and actually get paid a liveable wage!! Weird, huh? I know. But don't fret for my well being fellow hatebags, for I will be just fine.
Now I can afford to buy groceries for my family, pay my bills on time, AND still have enough left over to go to the movies every other week.

Now for the gory details...

I've worked for GC for about two years. Everything was running as it should: I fell for the brainwashing, sold my soul on a daily basis, took crap from the customers, got yelled at by the middle management pricks, cleaned s4!t off of the bathroom cielings, and went home to take my daily mind-rape shower. Until one day, the Idiot GM decided to offend me: he called himself God.

Do you believe that?!?!? GOD. He actually had the audacity to insinuate that he was all powerful and all knowing and could smite anyone of his choosing.

Well, being the kind of person that I am, I voiced how offended I was by this; and he said "So? I can do what I please because I'm the boss..."

It was at this point that I decided to do everything in my power to bring the store down and make him realize that he is just as disposable as I am.
I realized the best way to do this was to spread dissent among the troops and bring down morale as much as I could. Not to toot my own horn, but I was damn good at it. For the past 5 months, my store, which was normally in the top third of the chain, was now in last place. Every Month.

All it took was a little suggestive speaking and the ball was rolling. Everyone knew, deep down, that no matter how much you work, how many customers you call, how much effort you put into it, you're still working for a pittance...

and paying for the Regional Manager's Porsche.

Two AM's have quit recently, the other gave up thier keys. The GM has hired about four teenagers to replace the "Experts" that jumped ship. and best of all: the STM is 19 years old!! Man, is this guy desperate or what?

These last 5 months were tha happiest I've ever been at GC. Watching the DSM come in every week and make this guy sweat was totally worth it.
I know this probably isn't all me, but hey, I'm still dancing a jig about it.

I know that, in a few months, I'll be making a difference in the world. The idiots that choose to stay will be in the same place they've been in since high school: struggling to "make it" with their band, working for minimum wage, and getting raped by the corporate machine looking to make a buck.

So, I'm going to sit back, relax, and watch Maury for the rest of the day.

I'd like to say thanks to all the friends I've made,
to the people who warned me about my impending "doom",
and to those who sat around and did nothing while we talked about how much we hate GC....
You Guys Rock!!!!!!

To all the middle management pricks: suck a big fat sopping wet donkey d!*k!!!!

And most of all,


GUITAR CENTER SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

Good for you! I worked at guitar center for over 4 years and was stupid enough to be courteous and give them a resignation notice, but they just screwed me over and decided to stop scheduling me. I completely agree that guitar center is by far the worst place to work at and a terrible atmosphere to shop in. Congrats for making a final exit that I oh so wish I could have done. The guitar center that I worked for  was in constant violation of my states' meal and break laws and still had the balls to act stupid and clueless when approached about it. Now, like you, it will be my personal vendetta to make sure that customers and potential employees know that they are more likely to succeed working at mcdonalds than guitar center.

So someone has a new Porsche and cans your ass because you're just an automated cretin with zero skills and now you're a parasite on society living off the taxpayers and instead of being ashamed you're dancing a jig?

Delusional. I would tell you to get help but you probably didn't have health insurance at Guitar Center.

I hate to burst your bubble but 10 minutes after you were fired nobody remembered you work there and a day later they had you replaced.

Good luck to you Mr. Pilot in your future endeavors.   Hopefully you'll find something that works better for you.   Took me a few tries, but I'm satisfied with my current employment.

Wish ya the best man.
