So, after I cleared out my internet history and all my bookmarks, deleted all my personal stuff on this computer and snagged a few office supplies to take home, I get called into a meeting with Bossman and Bosslady.Bossman made me explain the entire situation *again*. He seems surprised that I wasn't in tears or genuinely desperate for the job. He hems and haws a bit about all the changes coming up, then sits back in his chair and gets all magnanimous and shit and acts like he's doing me a HUGE favor by saying "Well, I guess you can stay, 'least until we find someone else."*
~~~ Note to all managers, supervisors and CEOs who read my blog (because I'm sure there's a bunch of you) - this is a fantastic example of what NOT to do to foster loyalty and boost morale~~~
*In the next breath, he tells me that it could be weeks, months or years before they even start to look for someone else. I neglected to mention to him that I've already started looking for another job and will continue to do so.

Nah, I might as well keep it and slack my way through the days, seeing as a slightly smaller paycheck is better than no paycheck at all. Unless I can get them to fire me so I can collect unemployment...

Shocking isn't it? Weren't you supposed to beg for your job? It's unreal how little management "manages".. Slack through your days.. why the hell not.

What is wrong with these people? It's going to be sooooo easy for you to kiss it all goodbye when something else comes along.
