My completely unproven theory is that she was in trouble at work and flounced. In the time that I've been following her, she has never done a job well. Everything has been done as shoddily as possible, often not even meeting the bare minimum her employers would expect. Think of all her brand partnerships, her TV work, and her crappy books. She never does anything properly or to a good standard. She often just doesn't turn up for work engagements, or makes excuses so she can get out of them.Hello fraus - finally got round to registering after a month or so of lurking - mainly so I can like posts during this most auspicious of occasions.
I had a lot of sympathy for Jack when I originally became aware of her - back when she first came to prominence - I am a single parent and had been barely surviving on benefits too for some years. But I very quickly became suspicious. Why did she have to give up a £27k job? Surely she could afford child care on a salary like that? Why wasn't she chasing her ex for child support? It just didn't add up.
Then when she released her first book, I just found it really distasteful. I couldn't afford to buy books at the time (and thank duck because it would have been money down the drain - I wouldn't eat her slop, let alone my kids). I couldn't understand why any of my lefty friends who were all over her didn't see how inappropriate and not-socialist it was to market a book to the poorest in society. And yet - she is still adored by them.
I feel simultaneously gratified and sickened that I have been proved right in my suspicions, and I'm looking forward to her downfall.
Have a good evening.
Based on this, surely she would have found it even harder to be a good employee in an ordinary job sitting at a desk all day with significant responsibility.
She can't even manage occasional work now, let alone every other day for very long shifts where people might die if she gives bad information.
I suspect she was doing a terrible job and the fire service couldn't believe their luck when she quit. She probably lasted as long as she did because of her dad being a manager.
