From way back in August: quote:Trump fires Carolyn, hires his daughter Posted Aug 31st 2006 11:13AM by Anna Johns Filed under: Reality, NBC, The Apprentice Do you think he used his catchphrase? Donald Trump has fired Carolyn Kepcher, the blonde assistant who has been at his side all these years on The Apprentice. The New York Post is reporting that Carolyn, who is merely 36 years old, was fired for not being able to focus. Apparently she's quite the busy bee now that she's a pseudo-celebrity and all. The paper says she's trying to juggle her responsibilities for Trump with her many speaking engagements and recently, while away on a speaking engagement, Trump was unable to reach her. Aside from monitoring the teams on The Apprentice, Carolyn's real job was to run the Trump National Golf Club in Westchester County, New York. Trump says her duties on the show will be done by his daughter, Ivanka. Maybe Carolyn's job is the big prize for the next winner of The Apprentice. LINK
It also appears that George is staying back east while the show is filming out west, and that Trump's son, Don Jr., was supposed to fill in. Guess that didn't work out so well. Doing a bit more googling, it appears at Trump had problems reaching Carolyn while she was away giving a speech. And, well, I can only imagine how well THAT went over... NOT! In November, Carolyn was hired by Microsoft, helping MS find the "best small-business idea in America." LINK

I was thinking I'd heard the son was filling one of those vacancies and I was wondering why he wasn't on the show.

It was my first real laugh-out-loud moment while watching The Apprentice to see Carey strutting down the runway in that suit. Nicole reminds me so much of Demi Moore.

Carolyn was hired by Microsoft?? AWESOME! Hope she gives the Donald a run for his money...err..Microsoft's money. Mambatsy, I would put the diaper changing amount at ZERO! I believe he said he's never changed a diaper.

I saw him on Donny Deutsch and here is what he said, "changing diapers does not come with the deal of me being a father, and that is clear from the start." All business. Okay, I love The Apprentice for the business aspect. This season sucks. They just show the challenge being handed out and the final product. I miss the in between stuff. Don't really care about this season at all now.

I'm with you webchiq, hope it changes back to how it was before this season ends. But I doubt it...

I'm with BOTH of you!!!! However, I fear that it won't "change back to how it was before." I'm rapidly losing interest in this season. And honestly? I'm really starting to dislike Trump (whereas before I thought he was mildly amusing, I'm now finding him distasteful!).

Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy are real. It is all the people here who are imaginary.
Back on topic, I am expecting tonight's show to be very boring. I mean the team that is already down and out and living in tents now has to SELF-destruct by competing against itself, leaving it further demoralized???

Self-destruction can be very entertaining, Juju. Isn't that why we watch reality shows? (Anybody else see the clip of Leo Sayer ejecting himself from the BB UK house over UNDERWEAR??? Funniest thing I've seen in a long time!)

That is hysterical and sad at the same time. Poor baby wasn't getting his just desserts and bailed. Male prima donna.

Poor man needs to go spend a day or two in a third world country if he wants to see "unsanitary." Pathetic!
