And You Thought Your Boss Was Bad.......
Sep. 18th, 2004 02:53 am"He Couldn't Tell Me Who To Vote For." Lynne Rene Gobbell of Alabama was fired from her job last week when her boss saw a John Kerry bumper sticker on her car. Lynne worked for her company for over two years. She lived in the same small town her whole life and attended New Hope Baptist Church. She was worried because "jobs around here are slim."
When Lynne went to talk to her boss, "I asked him if he said to remove the bumper sticker." When her boss insisted she remove the bumper sticker, she replied that "he couldn't tell me who to vote for." Her boss, who had distributed Bush propaganda in his employees' paycheck envelopes, stated that she had to leave the room.
A few minutes after their conversation, Lynne's manager broke the news to her. "I reckon you're fired," he said. "You could either work for him or John Kerry."
John Kerry heard about Lynne's story and this week he called her and offered her a job. Now watch for Lynne telling her story on the campaign trail.
A clear choice between the candidates: George Bush, who has presided over the loss of net jobs than Herbert Hoover, or John Kerry, who is committed to a Jobs First policy.
