Default Uh Oh......

Guess what? I am unemployed. My boss was nice enough to call me at 11:30 this morning to tell me that he had to let me go. Oh well, I would like to say it was good while it lasted but it wasn't.
I am not upset, just a little surprised because it was done over the phone.

Well, I guess that about tops the cake on that job ey Mike? What a douche to do something like that over the phone. Back to the trucks now? Or do you have some lines elsewhere?

Working on a few things at the moment. Trucks is a last resort.

that was chicken **** to call you on the phone and do that. Makes me think of the commercial where his boss calls him and lays him off as well then the guy asks where he is calling from and his boss says the big conference. His boss is standing at the podium and the guy comes from the right hand side of the screen and just lays him out

I am 34 and have been working since I was 15. This is only the 2nd job I have gotten fired from. The only other one was Napa Auto Parts when I was 17. :censored:

can you even be fired for that? your work ethics must be an issue unless you call him names and stuff at work.
