Re: GOT FIRED TODAY Out of nowhere, they asked me into the office, closed the door, and asked me how it was "goin." I said fine, it was my Branch and Area managers. They asked about my CDW, which was fine, I thought it was about that. Then they asked me how I liked working for ERAC, and I said it was fine, I've not even called off a day sick, in the year that I was employed, never took vacation, anything. I said it was hard work, but what isn't, then asked them why they were wanting to know. They said "Well, we feel that you're not happy here, and you might find yourself working out better somewhere else." I said... "What?" And they said, "Yes, we have talked about it, and your attitude is not that great, so we are letting you go." There was this awkward silence, for about 30 seconds, then I asked... "Can I go, now?" And they said, "Yes." I got a huge smile and thanked them, and ran - not walked - to my car. The weekend started early!!!!!! AND I never have to go back there. Today was awesome.. First Saturday in over a year that I did not have to go there. I woke up like 2 in the afternoon, like Peter Gibbons in Office Space, when he just skips that Saturday, looked around, my GF was out somewhere, but left me lunch in the fridge, and I thanked God that I did not have to spend the day renting cars. Tomorrow the Sunday paper comes out, soooo I'll start the new job hunt. But for now, the fact that I have no more ERAC.... It feels like heaven. |
