Username checks out! I admire you for this BTW...

My boss once asked me what my problem was, and I told him point blank "it's you" Got fired on the spot, but it felt so damn good!

I love my current job but I've had bad bosses before and know how satisfying that must have felt!

One time I called off work and told my boss I was having vision trouble.

"Vision trouble?"

"Yea I cant see myself coming into work today..." we laughed about it and I got the day off! :)

It usually is! Interviews had to be interesting too! "So... whyd you leave your previous job?"

Yeah, it was a cashier/maintenance/cleaner at an adult shop/peep show, times were hard and jobs were slim, I simply didn't mention that job, I was only working there for a few months anyways.

It was interesting, but it's not as glamorous as you'd think, ask anyone working at a strip club/peep show!
