Last week, Frankenstein was fired from his job as a customer service representative for a major credit card company.
“It just wasn’t working out,” said Janice Hall, Frankenstein’s supervisor. “We brought him on, despite having no prior work history, zero people skills, and the inability to speak in basic intelligible sentences. You see, we started a Reanimated Dead Corpses To Work Program about two years ago here at the company. And in that time we’ve successfully trained numerous reanimated dead corpses and many are still with us today, including a zombie named Kent who works in the mail room. We’re proud of that.”
But in the six weeks Frankenstein had been working at this company, he had racked up numerous complaints from customers and fellow employees as well.
“Mr. Frankenstein was never really able to establish any type of report with our customers,” Ms. Hall went on to say. “His method of solving customer issues was to grunt loudly, stump his heavy boots, and to throw one of his co-workers out of his fifth story office window. That’s against company policy. And obviously, that behavior had a seriously adverse affect on our company’s employee retention rate. Additionally, Mr. Frankenstein had previously drawn the ire of the people of a nearby town, who would often gather in our lobby with pitchforks and torches to threaten him. And this would prompt the Fire Marshall to issue thousands of dollars of citations for violating the fire code. It was an untenable situation. Mr. Frankenstein had to go.”
