Why should you be fired from your job?I spent three years "working" in the Ministry of Agriculture carefully crafting projectiles out of folded paper and drawing pins that I would then fire at colleagues with an elastic band. On discovering I'd been conducting all-out warfare when I should really have been in a field counting cows, I was asked to "reconsider my career options" outside the service.
Why, then, should you be fired from your job?

*sigh* Impeccible timing on this QOTW.I just got laid off- or, as they say over there, "made redundant".
I've been worried for about the past month or so, when I've had fuck-all to do at work, and spent a significant chunk of the day web surfing because no one had anything at all to work on. I took whatever CAD work they had (I'm an engineer, not a designer, so I really shouldn't be doing CAD work, according to them), I did research for them, did whatever they needed- but as every damn proposal they put out there seemed to disappear into a puff of smoke, they decided that they needed to cut staff.
They told me this at 2:15 on Thursday. By 2:30 they had my key, and I had all my stuff out of my desk and was standing in the parking lot.
CUNTS.
(Apologies for the lack of humor- but as I need to pay my mortgage this month and that will take me down to about two week's worth of food money, I'm just a bit scared and freaked out.)
