Why You Souldn't Say Anything Intelligent at the Workplace
Well the day many of you have been secretly pining for is about to come.
I'm sure everyone has seen the movie Office Space by now. Initech brings in some consultants to go over the company's budget and employees and gets the people that don't do any thing fired (i.e. Tom).
Flash back to reality - a week or so ago my boss at work lets me know that I will be able to have my job full-time over the summer. Perfect, it's a great do nothing job and the pay is awesome. Unfortunately, I had the dumbass inclination to open my mouth and say the immortal words
Well I said this during budget review season apparently when the building manager was in the room.
Flash forward to a week later at the budget review meeting... Suprise! My job is eliminated for the summer! Granted, it will still most likely be there for me in the Fall (until my particular division is outright eliminated... which is on the chopping block, too.), but it still means I have to do the bullshit job search again for a new job during the summer. And if last year's retard fest at Micro Center is any indication... it's gonna be sucktacular.

That's awesome! I'll get paid 40hrs a week for ten minutes of work!
