I've waited a few days to post this.

I'm at a temp assignment that doesn't feel like tempwork because I worked here last year and turned down a job with them to go to school.

On Monday the manager for our department returned from vacation, and was having trouble logging onto the computer. He was called into the supervisor's office. He returned with a shell-shocked face.

He was fired. Effective immediately. There wasn't a dry eye in the department as he stumbled out of there with a box of his stuff.

How utterly humiliating.

Worked at a tech company one time.

All the animators were in one tiny room, (man, OSHA would have had their heads if they found out) with a white board at one end. One day the supervisor came in and wrote all our names on the board with a green marker. Then he underlined some names in red, and checked others. We're all staring at him like he's lost it; he hadn't said a word at this point. Then he capped the markers, turned to us, and said, "Those of you with underlined names still work here."

Then he walked out.

I though my name was underlined, I quit about a month later.
