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.

one year passes...

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.

wilter, Friday, 20 March 2009 02:46 (fifteen years ago) link

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.

WOOKIE JOHNSON (forksclovetofu), Friday, 20 March 2009 02:47 (fifteen years ago) link

I AM NOT FIRED

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*

StanM, Friday, 20 March 2009 05:37 (fifteen years ago) link

Don't most companies do staff evaluations every few months or so?

Though it might be nice if they said that was what they were doing, not just leaving you hanging in the SACK PARANOIA.

Okay, so this turned out to be me being grilled about something someone else did that's got them freaked out. I am apparently not under siege.
Really wish they'd just let me know what the problem is rather than keep me uncomfortable for four days. I ate a buncha Tums this morning.

WOOKIE JOHNSON (forksclovetofu), Monday, 23 March 2009 16:54 (fifteen years ago) link

Hard House SugBanton (blueski), Monday, 23 March 2009 17:10 (fifteen years ago) link

They'd probably fire you on a Friday instead of a Monday anyway.

three weeks pass...

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?
