Today, while at work, I was asked to see my boss. I was informed that the company would be laying off 20 people, and that I was one of them. I was told I could finish off the week, then was sent back to work. Twenty minutes later, my boss walked around and handed us all Christmas party invitations. FML

Text back and say "Error 404. Text message not received. Please contact service provider." Show up the next day and quit. Checkmate.

Who voted "You deserved it"? Nobody deserves a piece of shit boss! It was very rude of him/her to act like that.
