Fire all your workers

the people today are usually good, but they all hosed up bad today and one of them gave me a mealy mouthed excuse that wouldn't have flown if it were true and that i knew for a fact was a lie anyway

if they had just owned up to their mistakes i would have just been frustrated, not angry

i like my menial paper-pushing job because it pays hourly and that means i can work lots of overtime to both make more money and distract myself from the soul eroding horror of a fundamentally purposeless existence

any manager who can't adequately staff to avoid overtime should be mocked and then savagely beaten with the company ledger
