VERY VERY NICE! Show them druggies who's the best cook in town. MAn i really think 2011 is gonna be a good year, atleast im prayin for it!

 

Is it an adult or youth rehab facility?


Ive written several papers on youth rehab facilities in Utah.


Fair warning, if it's a youth program instead of an adult, you'll earn that high pay in on the job stress and probably covering up illegal activities. Kids in therapeutic programs in Utah actually have NO legal protection... Child protection laws are regulated on a state-by-state basis, and because Utah has almost no laws that invade the home (mormons have historically not liked people telling them such things as how many wives they may have), so Those places routinely kill kids or force them into near-death experiences as a part of their therapy. I'd know... I went to one. The program (Discovery Academy) murdered my bunkmate and the guards nearly killed 3-4 kids while I was there (for only 5 months). Oh, and I was thrown in solitary for 3 weeks when I first got there because I "made my counselor censor my mail" (I told my parents I was replacing a kid in the program who'd gotten raped with a broom. The counselor shredded the letter without mailing to them, and let me know if I tried to tell my parents anything in the future I'd be beaten senseless).


I really hope your program is a voluntary one for adults, and you have better experiences than I did.

 

WOW!!! You shittin' me? I believe in punishment, but not for kids in re-hab.?

 

Just keep us hanging-Bud

 

My god. Cant you sue? Or something? Did the Law put you in there? Or your parents? I just cant believe this kind of shit goes on... Fucking nutjob Mormons.


There's no excusing what happened to you. Thank god you survived it.


HUG

I dunno how there's 3 pages here and I'm just now seeing it.


I say HELL YEAH!! Best news I've heard/read in a while and it doesn't even effect me. Sounds like a fantastic opportunity that most anyone would be envious of.

 

The guy there has kept ME hangin' all this past week and more!!


When I first spoke with him....he was EXTREMELY excited about my resume, my passion for cooking....everything!!!


He told me that he wanted me to start THIS week...after he returned from a meeting with the owners in Scottsdale last Thursday-Sunday!!


Last Monday, I was supposed to go over the house to see the kitchen and meet in person....after NOT hearing from him all day, I finally called and he had forgotten all about said meeting!! Told me that he would call me in the morning...Tuesday...to set up a time to come down.....NEVER got a the call on Tuesday either....so I called & left a message....never heard back!!


I was assuming that he was simply busy and only thinking about going to Scottsdale last week....like he figured his 'problem' of finding a new chef was solved until after he returned from Scottsdale...and he'd deal with it all then!


So yesterday....I called his cell again...left a message asking if I was still being offered the job....if so, that I was available to come to the center this week....yada...yada...yada!!! I still haven't heard back from him!!!


What an asshole!!!


I have NO Earthly idea what is going on!!!


I WAS under the impression that I DID have the job and was supposed to start this week!! His exact words were: "I'd need you to start next week after I get back from Scottsdale"


Shit pisses me off!!

 

It's a "High End" adult facility. Private homes turned into rehab centers that cost the person above $40,000 to attend! They have centers in Scottsdale, AZ and here in Utah.


to hear about your experiences!!

 

Determination is key


Id go see him.....call his office...find out when hes guna be there and show up

 

Oh man! WTF?? This kind of shit drives me nuts. The rat bastard...doesnt he know he's playing with your life? If something has changed, he owes you an explanation.


Extremely unprofessional and downright rude and inconsiderate.

I wish I couuld spell better but once I get passed 4 letters I'm lost So that guy is a Fucking ass hole-Bud

 

Maybe he's just toking on some of Bud's bud and lost track of what day it is.


What a dick.

 

Well, he did say as he was a recovering addict himself!!!


Fucking DRUG addicts!!


Can't people just smoke weed & be done with it??!!


Yep!! This is some fucked up Bull Shit, for sure!!


I TOLD him this job was PERFECT for me!!!!


He said he'd fired their last chef because the guy had no passion for cooking for the household!! The last chef didn't want to make desserts....I ADORE making cakes and tarts, etc!!! I LOVE cooking FOR people!! I love seeing people enjoy the food I've prepared!!


Unlike their last chef....I DO have a passion for cooking....especially in this type of environment!!! What I cannot do...is cook in a fast paced, stressful restaurant...with extreme volume of output!! Can't take that kind of heat!!


This guy is a fucking flake....and being treated like this is seriously bumming me out!! Thought I finally had some light at the end of the dark tunnel here....now this shit!! WTF????!!!

 

DAMN Geo. If you can at all, get out there and introduce yourself in person. Ask him if he has some time to discuss the job offer. Odds are, he will. Flake he may be but it is an employer's market right now in most fields. Sometimes you have to suck it up and overlook the initial professionalism. Just get the job. Once you have it, train him if necessary. You're a woman. You know how to get guys to do what you want (get your minds out of the gutter, you other guys ) I'm not talkin' about sex. Self -respect and attitude. that's the ticket.


Now GO GET 'EM!

 

Well, my best guess is that I didn't get the job!!


I've called that asshole several times....had to leave messages each time....and he only returned ONE of those calls....in the form of a text message....the guy's big on text messaging...probably has himself one of those fancy Smart Phones that he can't keep himself from playing with...among other items in his pants!!


I asked if I was still being considered for the job, said I was given the impression that I had actually been offered the job and that I was still very interested in the job!


He texted back a full day later that "they were still trying to figure that out"....that was last week!


Yesterday I called the rehab center itself and asked if there was a chef position still open....the lady I spoke with said no....they already had a person who cooked for them who was now working full time....yada..yada...yada!!!


What a fucking asshole!! Couldn't even afford me the courtesy of telling me what was going on....after keeping me hanging....and put on hold for several days!! I had even gone so far as to create and print up several weekly menus, plus several sheets of breakfast, lunch and dinner & dessert lists for them to see what an awesome job I could do for them!! What a waste of time & energy....and printer ink!!!


Oh well! Their colossal loss!!! Now they'll never get to sample my delicious cooking!! My gain!! It's painfully obvious how unprofessional that guy was....he was probably gonna be a dick head to work for!!!


Well.....THANKS everyone for the awesome support & well wishes you all gave me!! I really appreciate it!!!!


Hopefully, some other job opportunity that is well suited to my talents will show itself soon!


Thanks again!!
