    So the big boy boss came in today. He was supposed to be here around noon but made our store his last stop. He walked into my office and I really thought today was my day it was coming. He then proceeded to point out that my department is on track to finish behind last year's numbers in every single aspect. Gross profit, units, finance, everything. I was actually pretty numb to it. I officially don't care anymore. I really don't know how I feel about that either. Part of me cares I guess, but I think overall I don't care. All I kept thinking about was please fire me so I can collect my 455 a week unemployment...go shack up in a Vegas hotel for a few weeks and have a blast and then figure out my life decisions. I think getting let go would allow me to do what I really want to do which is move but there's something that holds me here and I think it's the resposibilty I feel to the job. I've never quit anything in my life and I think that's all that's holding me back.

    He also mentioned the time I took off the past two months...time I had coming and threw that in my face. I took his shit for about a half hour before I started fighting back a little. I brought up how I have to not only do my job but essentially the GM's job to. I guess I'll see what happens with this. I'm sure I didn't help my relationship with that asshole or I just lightened my workload a shit ton. Not the best way to head into my day off tomorrow as I'm sure I will be talked about all through the day. I don't know. Guess I'll just drink it off tonight and see what happens Friday.

    I feel your pain. I had to make a decision like that a couple of months ago as well. The only thing that kept me at my place were my family and my job that I had for 7 years. I love what I do, but I didn't like the atmosphere in the company anymore and I worked non-stop. I knew it was time for me to move on, but I needed a trigger. Then Cav came my way, and I pulled it. It has only been a rough 2-3 months now, but I never regretted quitting the job and moving to the States. (Okay, Cav made it a lot easier to decide :mrgreen: )
    Take your time and assess your situation and then make a decision. Don't be afraid of change, it can only get better :) Good luck!!



    Can I move in with Cav too?

    Good thing the wife's working late tonight. I don't have to sit through another Fa la la la lifetime movie.

    Finding Mrs. Claus was horrible.

    what's a bizzaro? I'm afraid to look in UD. :?
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    did you actually know your bizarro? I've never met mine, but she has been my bizarro since college...apparently she use to live in FL. My old neighbors from when I was a kid live down there now and went up to her and started talking to her like she was me... :lol: Recently it seems she's moved to MD. In the past couple of years, I've had at least 2 people think I was her...and 2 people think that she was me.

    I AM disgusted with myself, thank you very much.

    Correct. Bizzaros are similar to you, but just slightly off. They did a Seinfeld episode on it ...
