I’m being laid off from my job next month, so I thought about what I will and won’t miss from it.
I won’t miss:
- Idiot coworkers
- Idiot customers
- Incompetent manager
- Jerkface department head
- Idiot temporary employees trashing the place
- Carl (there’s always a ‘Carl’)
- That guy that tries to justify the crappy things the company does
- Our crappy software
- Our crappy websites
- Our crappy apps
- Our crappy phone system
- Having to tell customer our crappy software doesn’t work because it was made in 1999.
- Having to tell customers our crappy websites, apps and phone system are down…again
- Having to tell idiot workers to do their jobs
- Telling idiot workers how to do the job they have been doing for years
- Workforce (mis)Management
- Waking up early
- Traffic
- Lousy parking
- Half-hour lunch
- Lousy places to eat in the area
- Timesheets
- 2% raises…when there ARE raises
- Shagnasty coffee
- Overpriced vending
- Having to bring my own coffee
- Insulting ‘contests’ from management
Things I will miss:
- The nice gal from Legal
- The ‘office mom’ (there’s always one!)
- The metalhead guy (there’s always one!)
- Money, but most importantly…
- Health Insurance!
