Gerard says he would program routes for Allison on the car GPS if she was going somewhere new. #badenclay

BUT SHE DIDN"T DRIVE :banghead::banghead:

Gerard says triggers might be "something somebody said", flashbacks to certain situations. #badenclay

I wonder if this reference is aimed to extend and perhaps explain GBC keeping track of Allison using GPS, 'Find iPhone' app, checking her cars daily mileage.

Controlling.

Perhaps Allison used technology same way to gain some understanding of his second life and where it took him (?)

Gerard says he put them on an incentive plan. #badenclay

Um excuse me, didn't he just say the bottom dropped out of the market after the floods, IF SO what on earth is the point of putting them on an incentive plan as if they were slackers?

Oooh he makes me so mad :stormingmad:

Gerard: We had a contract and I bought them out for a dollar each. They were to continue in the business as sales people. #badenclay

Gerard says he put them on an incentive plan. #badenclay

Gerard says Phil satyed. "He never met any of his targets." Says he left the business towards the middle of 2011. #badenclay

I don't think i can take any more. Hopefully hanging out the washing won't make me want to hurl things,:seeya:

Gerard says in 2009, he and Phil bought matching vehicles. Says that was a whim #badenclay

Gerard: First time I test drove my car was when I owned it. #badenclay

Pfft owned - wasn't it leased?

Gerard says after all that, he owned 100 per cent of the sales business and 25 per cent of the rental business. #badenclay

Gerard says Jocelyn insisted on having the first $10,000 bonus payment upfront and "left as soon as the cheque cleared". #badenclay

What a very smart woman Jocelyn is. I would have run for the hills too!

Good for her, take that Gerard.

Gerard says he wanted to own the whole of the rental business because it would give them stability. #badenclay

Gerard says he arranged to buy it from Ben Bassingthwaite (25 per cent) and Jocelyn (50 per cent). #badenclay

Gerard says Ben left the business at the end of 2011. #badenclay

Again: poor man. It's hard to soar like and eagle when you're surrounded by turkeys. Wife's a snivelling wreck, partners won't get out and work, banks won't lend, inconsiderate floods, mistress is demanding ... Never once do we hear "I managed badly" "I miscalculated" "I over extended" "I wasn't assertive enough" ...

The picture he paints of himself is true to a personality type and its not a good look.

Yeah no kidding .. guess that wasn't 'cool' with the partners, bummer.

 

[Radster]

Ok - so now he's dishing it out to Jocelyn and Phil. I know Jocelyn - she will NOT be happy...!

I know Phill, Doc - and ditto!

of course, poor Chucky Tarbey wasn't getting his franchise fees paid.. .. sad, huh?

11:25am: Mr Baden-Clay said his business partners Phil Broome and Jocelyn Frost wanted to shut down the business or sack all the staff.

Mr Baden-Clay wanted to hold out. He agreed to buy out Mr Broome and Ms Frost.

"I actually took practical control of the business," Mr Baden-Clay said.

"We had a contract and I bought them both out for $1 each. They were to remain in the business as sales people."

Mr Baden-Clay said he placed Mr Broome and Ms Frost on "incentive plans" promising to pay them each a $30,000 bonus if they met agreed sales targets.

"Phil stayed he never met any of his targets and never achieved any of those additional bonuses and ultimately he left the business towards the middle of 2011," he said.

"Jocelyn insisted she have the first bonus payment which was $10,000 up front and she left as soon as the cheque cleared. She went on a holiday to Western Australia and she never came back.

"Within weeks she was working at Remax."
