why did Dean get fired?


His manager Dan was going to promote him and Dean just decided he didn't want the assist. manager position and quit instead. Dean never did anyting wrong to get fired. Dan musta really been an ass and I think that's kinda harsh.

Dan saw Dean as his protege and reacted very immaturely to Dean not only taking the assistant manager offer, but quitting entirely.

Kinda hard to get fired when you quit. In other words, he wasn't fired.

It was funny how Dan was like you came in here and you're fired I write the books around here.

Dan seemed really like a badass and loved to bully. He reminds me of a grocery manager i used to have while stocking, which was pretty harsh as well and would let go or fire for no particular reason.

reply

Wouldn't call Dan a badass. More like douch bag instead.

"Here's how it went down.. You walked in and I said 'You're fired!'"

That line always makes me chuckle, David Koechner is just such an underrated comedy actor. He's up there with Richard Jenkins in the fantastic-funny-actors-whose-name-you-don't-know category.



Ya Kirk-loving Spocksucker!

In real life. A manager would much rather you quit.
