On Tuesday, a good friend of mine in NY had his center manager escorted out of the building by what is known as LIST (Layoff Implementation Security Team). They breached security at the front door, moved very quickly and efficiently right to the center manager office, put a needle in his arm with a sedative, a hood over his head, placed him in a plain white package car and drove off. The men were wearing brown pants with white shirts that had the UPS shield, but no “UPS” The shirts said “World Wild Services” on the back. Rumor has it these men were part of Carol Tome‘s security detail when they/them went to visit the call center in India to give everyone their Christmas Turkey. Turns out nobody took the turkey because they are all vegetarian…. but that is a story for another day. Anyway she was impressed by their brisk pace and professionalism as well as their low cost since they are subcontractors and went back and took them from their family for this 6 week special project. The manager was taken to “FEED” school. FEED stands for Former Employee Evaluation and Deprogramming. He “graduated” today and rumor has it what he went through was evil. He said it was worse than being at Guantanamo Bay. Rectal feedings, the hole (pun intended) 9 yards. This ain’t no Tom Cruise and Demi Moore you need me on that wall GB….this is full on Connie Rice, Dick Cheney rectal feeding GB. He went thru 50hrs of hell. When he left, he got a check for 9 months salary, which was correct down to the penny and a form stating that his stock has been put into a trust with Carol as the executer and sole beneficiary. The trust cannot be accessed for 40 years. I feel sorry for this guy.
