Description

What happens when your marketing director gets arrested for a DUI… in the company car… then uses his PTO to cover the week he was in jail?
In Episode 13 of The Bad Hire, Ken, Emma, and Morgan break down the most jaw-dropping HR horror stories yet. From stolen credit cards and faked IDs to addiction-fueled meltdowns and escort-fueled disasters, this episode proves that some hires bring chaos in ways you just can’t make up.
You’ll hear:
– A candidate who photoshopped his license… and a fake government receipt
– A marketing director who treated jail time like paid vacation
– An employee who had a brand-new illness every time she got caught
– A night-shift gas station worker who lost it all to Clash of Clans
– A receptionist with a stapler territory issue
– And a five-star gala gone wrong involving escorts and a stolen TV

Key Takeaways:
• Just because someone can Photoshop doesn’t mean they should.
• Some people treat employment like a con artist pipeline.
• Addiction can derail good employees if left unchecked.
• PTO is not meant to cover jail time.
• Always double-check conference conduct—some reps go rogue.
