i would like to heartily wish you all a happy new year. it seems as if, as the new year starts, i will be seeking other employment options.

"why?" you might ask. "but you were always doing things like that code red research and all those other things beyond your set duties," you might add. "why…you were an extremely knowledgable tech that was respected by a lot of peple on the floor," you would possibly consider closing with.

well…to put it bluntly, chris jaquith [make sure to click that link and email him, by the way] just fired me for rolling calls. with no queue. sounds hard to do, but he pulled it off.

i would like to add that chris was my lead for less than 3 weeks and was apparently completely uninterested in developing a rapport with me, as a co-worker.

so everyone should wish him a happy new year [or tell him to fuck off]. he's a swell guy.

now you know who you're working for.
