My Trousers Cannot Repel Firepower Of That Magnitude

 "If your performance does not immediately meet the standards of this division, you will receive no further reprimands but instead notification of termination. Your poor choices in behavior during this recent surprise evaluation from the state inspector have left us with no choice but to employ such drastic measures leading in the direction of ending your employment by the state of California, should your professionalism and workplace demeanor not significantly improve."

FUCK YOU, "THE MAN", FUCK YOOOUUUUUU

Long story short; the boss was out, it was a rainy sunday, so I had my feet up on the desk reading a comic book when the city inspector walked in the door, in order to do an unannounced inspection of our department.

Ooooopsy!

Of all the fucking things for me to get fired for, you know. Not the constant insubordinate remarks towards upper management, the goofing off with security, the endless abuse of my co-workers, my lack of regard for the chain-of-command and procedure during office hours, the fact I've never filed any of my status reports, or the fact I one recklessly commandeered the PA system in a government building to play the Talking Heads for an hour. Not, it's because I was reading a comic book when an inspector showed up. It's not my constant implications that our head of security is an ex-KGB agent. It's not that I'd gotten lit with a couple of higher-level executives. It's not my obvious and blatant contempt for every single client I deal with during my day. It's not any of that shit. Nope. Fucking comic book reading on the job.

Who'dve fuckin' thought.

[edit] Since everyone is asking what comic it was, I'll tell you; it was "The Punisher".

Maybe they would've been happier to catch you reading something by Machiavelli. That would've been much more professional.

why can't you be blamed? perhaps I'll blame you?

and perhaps you were fired for all those things, but it's easier just to say that you're being fired for the "poor choices in behavior during this recent surprise evaluation."

hmmm??

At least you work in a place where you can get away with everything else you've listed here.

If I let the people I work with into even 4% of who i actually am they would call security and have me escorted out. To be fair, I like that I'm so cold and professional during the day. It makes it even more cathartic when I strap on a guitar and tell the audience to go fuck themselves while I brutalize the solo to a song I never learned.

Fuck that shit.
