  • I’m on TOR, fuck it.

    About six years ago, my boss at the time, who was also a close friend got fired by the asshat company we worked for. They gave me his job and a 25 cent raise.

    I said “You’re joking? You ruin someone’s life and insult mine?” not in the best mood and sitting on $6k at the time

    and the reply from them was it was all they could do. I played coy, thanked them anyway and waited.

    One day, I got a call saying a big job was coming up, huge for the company, and that our site would be involved how lovely. The requirements were that I was to deliver a 26ft box truck to <redacted> and meet a group of contractors. They kept hyping up what a job it was and how much money it would make the company. At this point in time, I am the sole worker at my site, 300+ miles away from anyone at HQ or otherwise.

    The night before, I turned my phone off and slept in, then woke up and started browsing indeed, I was hired as a service tech, same field with a $5 raise a week later.
