I got laid off, over the phone, again. I’m not at all shocked, just a bit disappointed that my boss didn’t have the guts to tell me in person or give me a legitimate reason he was letting me go. He claims he was worried I would get injured on the job and he couldn’t have that on his conscience or be financially responsible should I get hurt. In the time that I have worked for him, he has re-aggravated his back on more than one occasion. He claims I was costing him too much to be employed. Well, then why not bring in more customers instead of impulse shopping online for things you don’t really need? i.e. A Giant Pencil, Giant Pen, Giant Calculator, a PS3, outdated PCs and PC parts without the proper research.

In all honesty, I knew this job wouldn’t last. I wasn’t learning anything that I didn’t already know by my own experience or by something called common sense. I did more cleaning than anything and my boss lacked organizational skills that any real successful business has. He would tell me to organize one way then change his mind after I’ve busted my ass organizing things in a way that made the most sense.

But what’s done is done. I don’t regret the time I’ve put in. It was an eye opening experience and I did learn a few things about running a business and managing employees: Just do exactly the opposite of what my boss did and I’ll end up doing it better than him.
