Odd for Florida for not INQUIRING BEFOREHAND... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

abt JJ's new job. Don't you think if your son came home stating he got hired as an ad executive, he would mention the company name? And if he didn't mention the name, would YOU INQUIRE THAT INFORMATION? I mean, it's just plain common sense. "Oh that's great JJ, what company is this?" "Oh JJ that's wonderful, what is the name of the company?" Nope, not gonna fly with me that Flo wouldn't inquire.

She did ask some days later LOL, Did they say how long JJ had been working there before she asked him?

No. But she did ask herself "maybe he got a big cash advance"...she only started inquiring when he was buying things. since it was a two-parter, i can only assume it was abt a week. Still, had my son come home announcing he got a job and bought fancy new clothes for his work, I would have asked abt his job, the place, etc. It's common sense. she may not have asked for a letter of hire...I have never received a letter of hire for any job...but still people do ask when they have been told by someone "I got a job" your first inclination is to ask "Oh yeah, where?"

Yeah, exactly...that was a red flag right there...WOW IT WAS ODD THAT SHE DIDN'T INQUIRE...

The biggest problem with Florida is that she was way too passive. She let too many things slide by. She didn't inquire about JJ's job, she didn't get angry when James skipped out on a job interview and she always seemed relaxed when James got passed over for jobs.

good description of her. it was obviously a character flaw of hers. It just made no sense to have her character be that way when she was so "keen" abt other stuff.

No. * irene laughs*
I have had many a job, and never received a letter of hire. I have been hired on the spot, over the phone, but never a letter.

Yeah but even if someone is hired on the spot I thought they are told to expect an New Hire Package with salary and health Coverage-LOL The only job I thought didn't give letter of hires was a plae like Taco Bell-lol

I assumed a letter that states "as of blah blah blah, you are hired full-time, with the salary rate of blah blah..." I have seen letters like that, but I have never received anything like that. I have received packages abt the health coverage.
