Yep, got fired. I saw it coming, too, after something broke on my way in to work. I said to myself, "I bet he's going to turn this into the excuse he wants to fire me." Sure enough, he thought that i should have handheld the project manager (who called me) to troubleshoot the issue, and to guide him on the phone to power-cycle the machine. I thought, "Why the hell would i assume the project manager has keys to the server room?" He grumbled about the train delaying my arrival to work and i pointed out that, had i been driving, i would still have been far from work. He responded by pantomiming himself troubleshooting the problem on the phone while driving. I tried not to stare too much.
Anyway, i already have résumés out at Apple and Danger. I think i'll spend next week having lunch with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif){kind=small}

Date: 2006-04-15 01:18 am (UTC)i agree with the sage comments of those who have come before me: good damn riddance. he sounds like a filthy asshole, and while my cats seem intoxicated by that sort of thing, 'intoxicating to cats' hardly makes for 'good manager.'
and, we're, uh, free a lot. we'll do stuff with you.
