“It’s not the end of the world. I've been fired more than once from a job. Of course it was from a job I didn't really want to start with."

“That's great for you, but I really liked this job and I thought I was doing great, right up until the boss called me into the office and said you're fired!"

"Did he explain why you were fired?"

"He did, said the other employees had complained about me."

“That's weird. You're like one of the nicest people I know. It just doesn't make any sense."

“Well get this, everyone I work with is a Republican and I mean deep rooted Trump card carrying Republican. I guess when they found out that I was a Democrat I was somehow going to upset the whole dynamics of their tight knit group. That I was a cancer that had to be removed."

I have an appointment with a reporter on Monday. Their mistake is that this is a deeply rooted Democratic state. Once word gets out, the people will decide the fate of the company democratically."
