15 Minutes

I came in late from lunch one day, unaware of the time (common for people running late), sat at my desk, and went straight to working.  After working a while, I realized that I forgot to clock back in, so I sent an email to my supervisor with the time I came back in.  The thing is, I didn’t really remember when that was, and the time I gave was off by 15 minutes, and not in the way that lets me keep my job.

So, I’m unemployed, and, frankly, breathing a little easier.  That place was sucking the life force from me, and I believe that this couldn’t have come at a better time.

VIVE LA RESISTANCE!

p.s. They got rid of my supervisor, who has had an outstanding HR investigation for a while now, at the same time.  These grapes are mildly bitter, but, I mean, come on.

  1. Nuh uh. Oh my ‘not-terribly-surprising-coming-from-that-piece-of-shit-company’. I’m glad you can breathe though.

  2. oh noes! that sucks – but at least you’ve got a positive attitude about it. good luck with getting something else!

  3. at least it wasnt a shock…you knew foul plots were afoot at that place and thats why you thankfully had already begun the job hunt before the firing. “thats why im like fuck hector.”

  4. Somehow I think this is a good rather than a sucky thing. Look at it as an early birthday present, giving you some time to rest before starting your new job.

  5. Dude, all things will turn out alright. That new you guy you were talking about sounds like a total douche. It’s all good, don’t trip potato chip! It was awesome seeing ya today! Vacation time for yous mister!
