<p>I hope George isn’t next!!!</p>

<p>Carolyn Kepcher, Donald Trump’s left-hand woman on the first five seasons of The Apprentice, has been fired, literally.</p>

<p>She “was fired earlier this week. Rhona Graff of the Trump Organization confirmed to CNNMoney.com that Kepcher no longer works at the company,” according to the site. (That is the Rhona, the woman who calls the candidates early in the morning to give them their orders.)</p>

<p>The New York Post, which first broke the story, quotes an unnamed source who says Carolyn “became a prima donna. Being on ‘The Apprentice’ went to her head. She was no longer focused on business. She was giving speeches for $25,000 and doing endorsements.” The Post reports “that when Trump tried to reach her recently, she was off on a trip to make a speech. Another time, while giving a tour of the pro shop at the Briarcliff club, she didn’t seem to know the prices on any of the merchandise.”</p>

<p>Despite the firing, Trump and Carolyn are reportedly still buddies. According to a Post source, “Trump told her what she had to do was take some time off and spend it with her family, and then get another job. They have a great relationship.”</p>

<p>OMG, I opened this thread thinking Trump fired “our Carolyn”, CC mom and friend! Phew…back to the regularly scheduled program…</p>

<p>I couldn’t believe it when I heard it. I thought she and Trump were as “thick as thieves” Guess not! He was probably looking for an excuse to put Ivanka on the show! Now she can go home and say to her nanny, “you’re fired!” Ha!</p>

<p>As you can see, I don’t watch much TV at all, nor this show, so the only 'Carolyn" I knew was the one on CC. I am much more familiar with the characters on CC than on TV! :eek:</p>

<p>This is a a great website for all things Apprentice. My family loves this show, although some seasons are better than others. We were in NYC a year ago this past spring in front of Trump Tower when we saw Bernie, who occasionally subbed for George, getting into a cab. My daughter yelled out, “There’s Bernie!” Forget art museums, shows etc. That was the highlight of the trip for her! :rolleyes:</p>

<p>surely The Donald cannot have a subordinate more popular than he…</p>
