We are ready to go
Why have I called the blog “The Tale of Two Roads”? Well, it will be two stories in one.
One will tell my story as export manager, and the other the story of my life in Italy.
I hope that you will enjoy the coming true stories. And I hope that it will help those that are planning to go it alone in the business world realise that it can often be a cold and cruel place.
Being sacked by email by Eme, for no reason and for only doing my job well was one of these cruel actions that I will never forget or forgive.
Well John you did call the boss junior an idiot? Yes, but I did apologise (Italians are so touchy). Yes, but on the other hand you must agree that sacking somebody by email is a bit cowardly and not actions of a gentleman.
After more than 40 years with Eme, I have a lot of tales to tell concerning my working experience with them. I am sure that my history will see many people go red in the face. The same people that wish to rewrite the history of EME.
