First of all, I'd be really po'ed if I found out some of my friends weren't following my blog. My friends that are following and don't have to worry about their car and/or house being toilet papered are asking the very valid question, "What happened to Poodle?". Well, let me tell you this, I am not the same person I was 10 years ago, 5 years ago, or even 2 years ago. He will survive and I can't be responsible for anything or anyone associated with my past employment.
Let me explain. I've never been fired before. Okay, except when I was 14 I was taken off the schedule for 1 of my 3 part-time jobs for cleaning too much (Korean and German backgrounds rarely see eye-to-eye on whether or not you should be keeping product from 1962. It was a bulk food store...). Oh, and of course, Taiwan, women aren't supposed to argue with a man employing them and I mean, who goes into a job thinking, "I'm never going to argue or speak my mind again?". Well, I'm sure it happens all the time in countries where you run the risk of getting stoned to death, those trendy countries always on the brink of modern socialism. Anyhow, I guess I've been fired a few times before. So never mind my meak little comment, "oh, ooooooooohhhh, I've never been fired before..." F% it. I get fired OFTEN. Anyways, I am a firm believer of business karma. Basically, if you are stupid, something bad will happen to your business. The bulk food store closed down a couple of years later. The school in Taiwan, well, their roof just collapsed (apparently the mice in the computer towers were devestated). A few other places I quit and they also just closed up. And this, friends, had NOTHING to do with me. Divorces, maybe. But that's another story and will possibly be a screenplay someday (How to Break Up a Marriage in Ten Seconds). Just takes one phone call...
Soooooooo, what I'm saying is, business karma. If your stupid, and you know it, then be prepared and get your resume ready. If your in denial about how you've screwed the company up, then I hate to say it, your eating sand at the end of the day because your going down with the ship. I can only wish people luck and hope never to see them again. And that's what I'm doing for poodle. Good-luck poodle, hope to never see you again.

I feel like such a loser. I purposely TRIED to get fired from a job and failed miserably...so I quit. Maybe I should have maimed someone instead of playing the lazy-and-incompetent card (that only gets you promoted).
