Exit Interview Paperwork

*don't forget to read "The Right Thing" post first (just below this post), otherwise this wont make sense*

1. What was your opinion of: (Excellent, Good, Fair, Poor)
Your salary = poor
Your hours = good
Assigned duties & workload = poor with comment: "OVERLOADED FOR MONTHS, not days or weeks"
Supervision = no rating with comment: "Under RB, supervision was excellent."
Working conditions = fair with comment: "DHQ was always understaffed in my 1.5 yrs there. For me personally it was an environment that I could only fail in."
Fellow employees = excellent (I didn't mention it on the form, but now that TB is gone things are okay and an exit interview is not the place to point out DM's and KB's flaws)

2. Did you receive adequate job training? Yes with comment: "From HG and RB"

3. Have you obtained another position? Yes

If so, does it have:
Better pay? Yes with comment: "by about $##,###/yr"
Shorter hours? Same
Better benefits? Yes with comment: "100% paid med/den/STD/LTD/401k/403b, and volunteer opportunities"

4. Will you be doing the same kind of work? Yes

5. What were the reasons that influenced you to leave your present employment?
In this order:
1) How the issues surrounding TB's resignation developed, specifically the witch-hunt for RB and the investigator/investigation.
2) Having the opportunity to volunteer with Major Sargents at the Toy 'N Joy for Cmas '06 revoked without any say in the matter despite my pleading.

6. Do you have any suggestions where you feel improvement should/could be made?
Would they be taken seriously? If so - please call me, I DO have some suggestions. *phone number*

7. Do you have any abilities or skills that you feel were not used?
All of them. (though this is a slight exaggeration, I may one-line cross that out so you can still see it but write "Yes" over it) I am moving into "Accounting Manager" position at my new job with the confidence that I can actually do accounting work and not circle payables all day and open mail.

8. Have you returned all Army property? Yes

9. Are you interested in any on-call work? Yes

10. Do you need COBRA? Maybe

11. Where should we mail your W2? *address*

12. Do you have any work injuries? No

13. Have you had any work injuries? No

Passwords: blah blah blah

Additional comments: "I loved working for the Army and I love the people with all my heart. And when I got to do the CFA accounting duties, I loved the work. However, it was too much work for too long with no reward or even recognition. I am sad to leave the Army but happy that I have left on good terms. Thank you for everything. I will miss everyone."

I was meaning to ask you about the exit interview. Was it with an actual live person, or was it a questionnaire. Lame. I'll really miss you, but I guess until you get back to work (slacker) I can expect calls when you wake up each day at noon asking for a story. Love you!

My "exit interview" was mailed to me as a questionaire. A live person interview has not been offered so far. I doubt it will.

It sucks that I wont have insurance in March now though but oh well. What can you do.

I miss you too but I'll still call you with stories even after I'm employed. Don't worry - I shall always have a plethora of ways to keep you from your duties.
