gettin' fired

Dear Livejournal,

Argh. It appears I might be fired this afternoon from my terrible restaurant job.

Asides from being incompetent, I was apparently supposed to work yesterday. This will be my second no call/no show in less than a month. Not because I’m disinterested but because I’m too absent minded to check the schedule.

I think they might keep me since they have a difficult time filling my position. If they do fire me I’m screwed as I have about 20 dollars in my bank account. Yikes!

Dear Mr Goodman,

It is customary, when employed, to show up for work.

Sincerely,

Livejournal

I don't like liars, I don't like cheats. I don't like bullshitters. I don't like schmoozers. I don't like arse-lickers. But I've got a gut feeling and I'm following it.

You're hired.

Love,
Alan S

Owner of AS Restuarants Ltd.

A nice "lol" before I leave work for the weekend. Cheers ken et moonship.

FYI This year I was fired twice by the same pub within two weeks of each other.

That sucked.

my boss got fired yesterday for stealing 2,500 from our store.

it was party ok bcuz he was incompetent and no one liked him, but i think he stole our tips u_u

partly*

did you have a party tho

well everyday from yesterday forward, so in a way, yes.

stop snitchin

Well, I got fired. If anyone knows of a job that’s available in Boston ... let a brother know. Or I suppose I could start panhandling in Harvard Square.

my boss has a habit of sending me emails on friday or so once every three months that basically read "you me and the co-owner need to meet at noon on monday" and then offer no additional info when I ask; so every three months I walk around going "am i fired?" and they generally suggest I start work on something that totally confounds me, I tackle it and then repeat.
But every time I spend three days walking around going "am i fired?" and i always feel like it's gonna be this time. And this is this time.

From across the house, the gf hears me sighing and immediately asks what's wrong now. I should really not look at my email after I get home.

damn, sorry forks

hope shit works out for you quickly

:-( I'm so sorry.

Agh, I'm sorry forks.

But really? You found out by email? That's LOW.

oh, wait hang on!
I am not fired!
I am just perennially worried that I'm gettin' fired!
Do not be sorry for me!

lol u fucker

By "This is this time" I just mean the cycle of getting that email is repeating itself. NOT FIRED! NOT FIRED! CANDYMAN! CANDYMAN! CANDYMAN!

:( sorry Forks

Honestly, i'm sure i'm NOT getting fired (i think), it's just that I get these weird mystery emails and then never get a response as to what they're about, just "we'll talk about it on monday" and then i get charlie brown stomachaches all weekend for no reason.

I AM NOT FIRED
DO NOT BE SORRY FOR ME
IN THIS ECONOMY

God, though now i feel jinxed and you have me positive I'm gonna come back here on Monday and have to be like "i am not crying wolf this time"
oh god charlie brown stomachache is coming and i have tied my peanut butter sandwich in a knot

i really should stop reading newspapers

sorry forks:(

NOT FIRED
DON'T FEEL BAD FOR ME
SO MANY HUNGRY CHILDREN NEED YOUR PITY

Forks, we are all praying for you.

sorry your boss decided you are a forks in the road:(

:(

as someone unemployed rite now, i feel for you. thanks for sharing your story, it takes guts

Good luck USAForks

Oh no, Forks! I just saw your revive and I'm so sorry for your loss... I'm usually not religious at all, but your horrible misfortune got me praying. I'm trying to find a silver lining here, but sometimes, there just isn't one (maybe you won't be able to afford that girlfriend anymore after this weekend, is that helping?)

Stay strong and hang in there, man. *chokes up*

Sorry to (maybe) hear this, dude

People, forks is PROBABLY NOT FIRED.

You are one cold hearted son of a bitch.

sorry to hear, everyone. mark e I hear you re the commute though - really appreciating not driving through this city in rush hour...

my org is currently being reorged and has had some unnerving press recently but fingers crossed all of us are fairly safe.

I might be visiting this thread in a few months

I'm genuinely sorry to hear that VG, mark e and Morbius are all going through uncertain times right now. 3 fucking brilliant posters there - all the best to youse.

All the best for the future, Dr M.

The Marines need you

You don't want me despoiling the region, big fella, and it sounds like too much work.

Look at all the other locations where an experienced GS-1084 could contribute, though

Sorry 1035. I get all my 10XX series mixed up now

How hilarious is it when you are being canned in 2 weeks, and you are told to go the extra mile (on something you've never had to do before) because "this editor (who you've never heard of before) IS PICKY"? lol, what's my motivation?

filling the time

the warm glow of satisfaction which follows a job well done, presumably

The gall

the spleen

the goin' postal

sorry to hear about this vg, mark and morbs best to you all
my wife's been out of work for 7 months definitely relate to the stress

yeah Morbs, seriously fuck that. don't even go an extra inch. you don't owe them shit.
