Oh, my bad. You're fired.

Another day, another crappy job. Today's edition features sex. lies, and video, without the sex and video. I know, deceptive. But that's exactly what they were!!! I got this job as a bookkeeper and assistant to the controller at an employment agency. The irony, right?

This agency was for placement of engineers and they were making major dough. It was owned by this married couple and everyone there, except the controller, had been there from the beginning. So the controller hires me because he needs help and I spent a solid week looking for shit to do. He kept saying help was needed with billing so I was pretty much stalking the woman that was doing it so she would show me how, blah, blah, blah.

Finally, two weeks go by and I'm talking to this woman and asking her for the brazillianth time what the fuck I was supposed to be doing. She finally says it's time for us to "talk". Oooookaaaayyyy. Here we go again. It turns out they had sold the company and hadn't yet told the controller because they were afraid he'd leave before they could close on the deal and no one knew how to do what he did.

While they were waiting for the closing, the dude hired me! Fucking true story. So I was let go. Again. They didn't need or want me. Again.

Is it really too much to ask for a little sanity in the workplace???? This shit has been the theme of my entire working life. One asshole after another. A never-ending stream of dipshits, hoo-hahs, and brain damaged fucking idiots.
