Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, my boss fired me, saying he’d had a lot of patience with me, but now the time had come to part. Funny, a few months ago he told me that he had to have a lot of patience with each of my coworkers when they started, but that I was the only one who grasped it all right from the start. FML
Today, my boss got angry at me because my English is better than his. He accused me of trying to steal his management position, and implied that I'll be lucky if I still have a job by the end of the month. FML
Today, I got fired from my job because my boss thinks that me doing everything he says makes me untrustworthy. FML
Today, my boss found out I had applied for a much better paying job. He told me I'd do a better job and make more money there. Then he fired me. FML
Today, my boss called me into his office. I've been working hard doing extra work so I can get promoted. He called me in to tell me I'm to reliable in my current position, so I won't be moving up. FML

At least he didn't follow that up with "appearances can be deceiving".... but seriously, OP, it sounds like you still have a chance to impress the guy if you bust your ass.

Time to create an air of mystery around yourself, never say anything, just hang out looking intelligent! Or take your intelligent face elsewhere. Good luck op
