Life's Goin' Good, Then You Get Fired...

I'm afraid so...today at five to five my boss called me aside and said:

"By the way this is your last day."

And I'm thinking "What? What do you mean?"

And she says that I'm not just fitting in, so...out I go.

Well, I was feeling pretty shocked at this, my eyes were burning and I thought I'd cry, but fortunately I didn't. But I had no idea what she meant! Not fitting in? I thought my co-workers liked me well enough. I gave 'em a pretty good laugh this morning when I told them about getting rejected for employment from The Reject Shop and various other foibles in job hunting. The irony!

Ugh, now my poor stomach hurst and I have to go meet my mother, geeze, why does she do these things to me? I don't want to go to Bunnings Warehouse, I'm too bummed.

I don't know what to think! Was that "not fitting in" thing a convient excuse to cover for the fact that they've found someone better, or a real statment about my personality? And now what? I've told everyone about this job, saying how it was my lucky week and everything, and now I have to call them all to tell them the bad news.

Well, fuck.

Dad's rather upset, as a principal he had to fire a few people, and he said he'd never do something so lame as to tell a person they're fired five minutes before they leave. I'm kind of a sad because I didn't say goodbye to any of my co-workers and I liked them. I wonder if they'll wonder where I've gone tomorrow. :O(

As you can probably tell I'm writing this for sympathy-garnering purposes, so please give me lots of comments of support and prehaps some suggestions of what I can do next.

Why Isn't Ch 7 Showing Wimbledon?

I'm appalled! Wimbledon has been the domain of Ch 7 for years! I better those who don't have Foxtel, it's also a problem for me because to allow my parents to watch it I have to turn the digital thingie on, which interfers with my laptop's wireless so I can't stay on the net, which sucks!

Anyway, I'm tired so I'll be going to bed soon...still shell-shocked about what happened today, I really can't believe things went to shit so quick! That's another thing about all this, I mean the boss gave NO indication whatsoever that she was at any time dissatistified with me as a person. There was a certian thing I couldn't do, but they didn't have time to show me, so you could hardly say it's my fault. It sounds like the hired me in a moment of desperation (the last few weeks before the end of the Finicial Year are very busy apparently) and never had any plans of making me permanent. Which when you consider what the person said during the interview is a pretty shitweak thing to do. For the past few weeks I've applied for no jobs and in fact told the old filing place I resigned! That place was the only way for me to get extra money! Now I may have lost my position there! All for nothing, which is really, really fucked up.

Well, I'm sure as Hell not going to get a full-time position unless it's permanent, I've learned my lesson, being a casual is just too tenacious and you can be fired at any time without so much as a by-your-leave. Which is totally fucked up and you can't even blame the new Industry Relations laws for it! Casual people have always being in danger of losing their jobs and being treated like shit. Hmpf the irony of having mentioned my old Boss at the Chatswood Newsagency (aka the dickhead) at work today...

And at one point during today the boss was talking about this other employee who wasn't there, a nice fellow who everyone else considers annoying and I piped up with "I'm sure I'm more annoying then him!" And the boss gave no indication that that was true. Hmpf, I think I've been had.

( Well, quizzies and stuff )

There's a man playing tennis against Nadal (who I believe won the French Open) with strange things on his neck...like sores, or razor rash or something...It's rather offputting, but I'm sure they commentators won't tell us what's up with it.

Anyway, only three minutes 'til midnight and I want to turn in, good night everybody!
