That Guy Got Fired
|
|
I was in the Internet cafe at work when Fred, a.k.a. "I Gotta Click All Dem Muddafuckahs?," came in. About five minutes after he sat down his team manager appeared at the door, gently rocking from foot to foot and wringing her hands.
"Uh, Fred? You're in unavailable," she said, meaning he wasn't on the phones taking calls.
"Yeah, I went unavailable," Fred nodded, and returned his empty gaze to the screen.
"You're not supposed to be in here if you're not on break," his boss explained further.
Fred said, "Okay," and once again returned his attention to the monitor, giving no indication he was about to get up and return to his cubicle.
So that guy got fired. And the rumor is...he went right off to another job where he makes $34,000 a year in customer service, meaning he increased his salary (if this is true). Sigh...
-------------------- Enough? No, Not Enough!
If I'm interpreting Rankin' Rob's latest one-word post correctly he's had enough of writing his blog and is leaving the "blogosphere," and it will be a blander place with his exit. Somehow...I doubt he'll stick to his decision to resign; he's threatened to quit before. But if he does...I am now the greatest blogger! William Smythe asked that I not make anymore political comments as he reposts his course schedule yet again; Brian, sorry, but you only update on a quarterly basis now. I only occassionally peek in on Larry Wachs' blog anymore, and have kinda left Douglas Rushkoff's blog behind altogether, and so that means I am now the only blog I read. It's all about tenacity.
This serves as your latest evidence that I am, in fact, alive. |
