For nearly two years now I have been surrounded by individuals for 8+ hours a day, five times a week with an occassional Saturday who lack the integrity of a feline, the poise of a flacid penis, and the intellectual magnitude of a jelly bean! I've dealt with incompetence abound from the CFO in a mid-life crisis fucking a subordinate to the Boss that thinks her job is to avoid all accountability to the continuous insanity on display daily. However, todays events have prodded me into action. IT'S TIME!!!
Today, my friend and coworker was fired not for work performance, but for speaking out against the 'status quo'. People continuously telling you "You're not doing your job" or "You need to give more time" or "You're getting and not giving back", etc... What's worse is that when other people (of different nationality I might add...of the orient) sit there and say that they are 'overwhelmed' and get stripped of their responsibilities but I and my friend a few others are told that they don't care about our workload..."Do your JOB", it's a slap in the face. And I've had enough of the bull shyt! I have also spoken up and our division has even made suggestions on how to effectively change the department to get the work done only to get smacked down by the CFO saying "This is how it is. No changes will be made! The work has to get done so make it happen!" That was two months ago and last week we were called into a meeting to tell us that the same work is not getting done due to an inefficient process. Then the audacity of this bitch to ask for suggestions on how we could get the work done after I had worked 12 hour days for 2 weeks, six days a week only to be told it's not enough...?! FUCK THEM!
IT'S TIME!!! I began my search for a new job a few weeks ago and the quest for a new gig has hastened since last week and now today's dose of bull shit! I have an appointment with a head hunter tomorrow for a position for which I'm qualified. Hopefully this meeting will lead to an interview and ultimately exclaiming like Della Reese "Kiss my EN-TIRE ASS!!!" I am studying for the LSAT's and God willing will be enrolled in Law School (NYU here I come!) in the Fall of 09. The Bible says "He will make your enemy your footstool!" I will pray that the Lord is merciful...

That's kinda similar to what happened to one of my coworkers (who was black, by the way). He got the boot for whistle-blowing. But he may have the last laugh, cause he has a nice little lawsuit pending against them. Sounds like your coworker may have the grounds for a nice little lawsuit too.
I was pretty aware of all your frustrations at work. And yes, it's definitely time. But just hold on and be patient cause, in due time, God will make a way for you. But just remember, it's gonna be on HIS time, not yours. He may not come when we want, but He's always on time. And when He makes a way, you can thank God and tell them fools to kiss your entiiiiiiiiire ass at the same time lol.
Wow. You seemed a bit upset! I can totally understand and I wish you the best!
Now I understand all the word of the days about change and moving on. do what you have to do my dude?
I hope your time is God's time or you will be suffering just a lil bit longer. It sucks to have to change jobs but I hope it works out for you!
I need to begin my work prospects for the summer...
Having done it myself, I have a suggestion on the law school thing. GO full time the first year, then switch to the part time program for the remainder. You can pull in cash as a clerk in a law firm during the day AND network a job upon graduation. Three years of lost income is hard and stony path to follow.
@ JB: Yes this much is true. If you remember our convo we had of this past summer, you thought shyt was all rosie. I told you then it was a mess there! LoL
@Arkiem: Ummmm if this is who I think it is, I didn't know you had a blog. Holla at cha boy!
@Jay: Si senor. Always an optimist with a slice of realism.
@Fuzzy: Always.
@ Ponoono: Thank's Ponoono. That was actually the plan. I can't fathem not working throughout the whole thing but I know for the first year I have to be fully focused. Any other advice you have would be greatly
Good luck with everything!
good luck!!!
YOU are not alone, brotha. Best wishes and I hope and pray that God continues to work in your life. Be the change that you want to see!
NYU, my alma mater. Go Liberty, Go Bobcats, Just Go dammit.
Thats whats up do your thing playa. Keep pushing the limit. Like I was always told "A CHANGE IS GONE COME".
Interesting...
