From Morning Briefing in the Los Angeles TImes:
On the final episode of “The Apprentice” on Thursday night, Donald Trump told winner Bill Rancic, “You’re hired.”
Rancic, of Chicago, had a choice of jobs — general manager of the Trump Plaza in Chicago or general manager of the Ocean Trails Golf Club in Rancho Palos Verdes.
He picked the Chicago job.
“I definitely breathed a sigh of relief,” Mike Vandergoes said with a laugh. He became Ocean Trails’ general manager only a month and a half ago. He had been the director of golf until getting a call from Trump telling him he was promoted.
The last thing Vandergoes wanted was a call from Trump saying, “You’re fired.”
