Sorry to hear that, Kalshane.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

I am so sorry. That sucks. And also seems really deceptive and selfish to tell you something stupid about answering the phones. Couldn't they have come to your place of employment at your normal arrival hour and re-orged you?

Ann, that's a ferret.
Egad, Kalshane.
Is it too soon to wish Good Riddance to 2007?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Fuck them Kalshane. Fuck them hard. And not with anything pleasant, either.

May every book or webpage your former employers go to only contain Anita Blake sex scenes.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Jeebus, Kalshane. I'm so sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, fuck, Kalshane. And man, insult to injury with the whole crack of dawn thing. I'm so very sorry.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Kalshane, that's just evil. I'm sorry! But maybe you're actually better off NOT working for Satan. May you find much better employment with a better company real soon, with just enough time in between to make it like a long vacation.
Aimee is the smitingest.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I'm sorry Kalshane. I hope you find something better than the soul-sucking job from hell's hell soon. Bastards, the lot of 'em.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Thanks, guys.
I'm just glad I hadn't found a house yet. They gave me 9 weeks severance pay and I've got a good bit saved up because of the aforementioned house-hunting, but it still sucks. I figure I'm going to spend this weekend wallowing in misery and start my job hunting in earnest on Monday.
Apparently my boss wasn't even aware this was happening until last night and he's willing to keep an ear out for me and help me with my resume if I need it. It sounded like he had no say in any of it.
It just sucked not being able to say goodbye to any of the people I've worked with for the last 9+ years. I turned in my keys and got escorted straight from HR to my car.

I just got re-orged right out of the company.
Bah, Kalshane. It seemed like they were heading in this direction, what with the whole being so horrible to you that you almost think they WANT you to quit... Ptui. I'm so sorry. I hope that this means that you have time to regroup and find a much, much, better job with saner hours and more understanding management, which will be SO NECESSARY once your little one is born.
But having you come in early and lying to you just sucks. So much a insult + injury thing.
