On more than one occasion a defensive player made a nice play for no gain or a loss (yes, that actually happened believe it or not) and the other players didn’t even acknowledge it. No reaction whatsoever, just turned around and miserably loped into position for the next play. No fire whatsoever. The culture on this team is absolutely awful.
been fired twice in my life. mentioned the second time the other day when new management cleared the office
first time i had some early success with the firm, got into some bad habits and really hadn't developed a solid, consistent process that kept me focused each day. when the slow stretch hit that always happens in sales i looked for the reasons why i didn't get each sale instead of looking at what i needed to correct in me.
what made it worse was there were a few other guys in the office who fell into similar habits and instead of helping each other get out of the slump we just compounded it. this was the sales manager who told me you see opportunities or look for problems and if you can't see the opportunities you need to look for another place to work
when management (i.e. the coaches) aren't held to any standard of true accountability and the best players aren't always playing it doesn't take much to sour the water
