Well, I clean up good. And an argument could be made that I’ve got movie-star looks.

You ever hear of a movie called _Every Which Way But Loose_? [I totally look like the star of that movie.](http://www.rangerpulse.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/eastwood__clyde.jpg)

How’s your dental plan?

I don’t know, have you seen the star of that movie lately?

That could be their new slogan: We put the **fun** in dysfunctional!!

If you have, that’s rather macabre. Clyde the Orang died not long after they filmed the sequel.

Umm, that’s not the guy in the picture he resembles.

There were two orangutans, one which was involved in each film. The second Clyde died not long after the second movie. I don’t know what happened to the orangutan who played Clyde in the first.

Enjoy,

Update-

Employee has been busy moving this week. This is the 6th time in less than six months. she borrowed a co-workers truck to move stuff.

Looking at Facebook this morning, it appears that they took the co-workers truck down to the bar. Douchebag then decides to drive the truck into a sign and a building. He then drives off and disappears.

I’ll keep you posted…

Oh. My. God. This should mean some jail time, hopefully. He is way too stupid to not get caught.

Why are they moving so much? Are they getting out once the month’s free rent is over? (Note: some apartment complexes offer that as an incentive for signing a lease. Of course, you’re not supposed to \*break \*the lease by leaving after the month is over, but from **fisha** ’s description, such niceties are lost on this couple.)

I am so thankful for your dysfunctional employee and her studly but stupid SO. Now that SG is gone, its so peaceful that I actually miss the drama.

She was moving for the 6th time in 6 months-to the dream farm with husband, to sleazy apt lovenest, to the farm she and **Douchebag** rented, moved back in with husband, moved back to rental farm with **Douchebag** when they got married, got kicked out of rental farmhouse, moved into hotel for the next ten days until she and Douchebag can move into new place.

She borrowed a truck from another employee to move. Thursday she totaled **Douchebag’s** car. Other employee said she could use his truck for another couple of days.

\*\*Douchebag \*\*got into a fight with her, took other employee’s truck to the bar, antagonized other bar patrons, left bar drunk and promptly ran truck into a building.

**Douchebag** drove off. Other employee gets a call from the cops. He’s not happy.

**Douchebag** drives wrecked vehicle to hotel, passes out in the cab of the truck.

I called today, no answer. I texted her, told her to call me, said I wasn’t happy about how her personal life was negatively affecting my company. She gave me her two week notice.

I told her to come into the office tomorrow to pick up her last check, she’s done.

Boy, is she having a bad weekend. 2 wrecked vehicles and lost her job.

Good riddance.

Wow. Just wow. Suddenly I’m not laughing at her anymore. I’m thinking that there was more than hawt sex involved. Meth can take someone over so fast.

I hadn’t really considered it, but you are probably right. Just awful situation.

I’m now blaming Douchbag for everything. Your employee wouldn’t have started using heavy drugs unless he wanted them. I hope she hits bottom now. Because if she stays with the drugs, she will be homeless next month.

What a sad situation. It was trainwreck-funny (to us on the boards) until this last bit. I hope Douchebag is in jail now, at least.

Where are the employee’s kids now? with their father?
