I got fired again. They said they were advertising my post in the newspaper and as soon as they had a successful candidate I'm out of there. I can't even walk out cos I really need that last wage.

Maybe it was this that broke the camels back...

Not sure if I should be empathetic or to stand in awe.

Yeah but that's not until September. I can't get any dole money until April.

I'll just look round for shitty cash in hand jobs till then.

When I go to Uni I'm going to use that time to come up with an idea for a business because, seriously, I'm done with working for other people.

wait so why were they advertising yr post? Were you making t-shirts with that on them? You should totally just shave and re-apply under a different name. how are you with accents?

Working is overrated anyway.

Didn't they ban obner form you at work?

Come over to the states and work with me and Derris. Being infinitesimally better than average here makes you look brilliant!

Maybe you should look into doing freelance editing or ghostwriting online. There's various companies that use freelancers. My wife used to proofread/edit software books and it paid decently. A bit unstable, but you wouldn't have to get dressed.

what did they fire you for?

You should really bust your ass while they are looking for someone, and then when they see how great you are and they call off their search, quit.

But then he'd have to bust his ass. And what point is there in that?

That sucks, dude. Maybe they won't be able to find anyone til April (or would that push dole back further, not helping?). Good luck.

That's no good, but you're a resilient lad. You'll come up with a new scheme. In the meantime, go out and buy yourself a record and that dreamcatcher you've had your eye on.

I'm sorry to hear about this Darrin, unless its what you really wanted all along.

How did it happen this time anyways? There's got to be a good story behind it.

shagging the boss's wife?...
taking cash out of the till?...
using the executive bathroom when you didn't have permission?...
