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?

I'm Not Coming Out!!!RachelSwipes post about agrophobia reminded me of a job I did once.
Basically, the company I worked for won a contract to supply computers and associated peripherals to disabled home-workers. My job was to deliver and setup the equipment, test that everything worked and make sure the modem links back to head office worked and then fuck off. (Some other dude had to train these monkeys thank God.)
So one day I rocked up this house and rang on the door-bell. No answer which was odd seeing that this lady had agrophobia so I was pretty sure she was home. So I rang again and heard:
"Go away - I'm not coming out!!!"
"I don't want you to come out love - I'm here to setup your computer equipment.."
"No!No!NO! - Go away! I'm not coming out...."
And I got the giggles....Everytime I tried to get her to open the door and let me in she'd screech "I'm not coming out" and I'd get the giggles really. really badly. I know it sounds cruel, mocking the afflicted, but you should have been there.
Cheers
I'm not coming out....
