Reason #2

Upon the one year anniversary of a job I was recently employed at, the owner gave me a gift.  Enclosed in the card was this:

Now if ever there was a sign that your services aren’t all that appreciated then this is it.  I sort of thought a raise would be an appropriate anniversary gift but she had a different, cheaper way of expressing her gratitude. I often question my contribution to the world, but even on my worst day it’s worth more than $5.00.

I currently have no job and, therefore, no extra money to speak of.  Not working for someone who thinks this is a good idea? A relief.

Spread the love
