Return of the Fired

There are rumors roaring around the web about the return of Omarosa and Troy to the show.

Given that
- this week's preview includes both Omarosa & Troy
- the summary of the episode says "candidates are subjected to a grueling round robin of one-on-one interviews."
- and Mark Burnett's proven premise that confrontation makes good tv... (see the penultimate episodes of the Survivor series)

I think this may be a 360-performance review of the worst kind. As a leader it's not just about how well you get your team to produce, it's also about how well you work with the team.

It would also make good tv. Especially if one of the questions they ask is "why are you a better hire than me."

So the questions are

do you think the "one-on-one interviews" are between the remaining candidates and candidates that have been fired?

and what do you think they will ask?

Show a little backbone would ya?

Wow - well... I guess it's clear now. Trump is looking for people who stand up for themselves. Jessie is the second Apprentice fired for letting Omarosa patronize her and run roughshod over her while Jessie continued to say she liked Omarosa and not defending herself when attacked. And come on... it's not like he didn't give her repeated opportunities. Kristi, too.

I'm becoming more and more impressed with how Trump is treating the people in the boardroom - or at least how he's edited. I’m not saying I would make the same decisions, but he is giving the people at risk not so subtle clues to what he thinks is an appropriate response to what is going on. In fact, in most cases he has given each of the potentials a very clear idea of what he's thinking and how they should respond in the last phase of the boardroom meetings.

I’m astounded that these women aren’t asking for Troy & Kwame’s advice on what Trump is looking for in the boardroom. They’ve seen the safety line and pulled themselves out.

If Kristi & Jessie are too dim to see Trump throwing them a line - how can he rely on them to pick up subtle clues in a real business situation?

Omarosa on the other hand, seems to try and pick up on these clues –almost too late, but not quite. Omarosa’s “sharp edge”, rude, and superior nature has pissed everyone off, including Trump, George and Carolyn.

The Donald and his Trumpettes

Wow - all I can say is ... wow... now what exactly was it that he said to the women in last week's episode? Wasn't it something like - you're bright, dynamic and built young ladies, and you should use that to get a head...

And I say again - Hire me up a shooter girl, I needs me a CEO.

Donald looks like he needs the other kind of throne to me though.

So the question is... will we see Troy, Nick, Kwame or Bill in Boxers on next week's cover?
And... will Omarosa & Ereka take this cover on job interviews?
