Someday I’d love to hear about how it feels to be so universally loathed by your coworkers and acquaintances and clients. I’m guessing you have a different theory about your employability that doesn’t involve your brother owning the company. I’m guessing you are still telling yourself and everyone else who will listen (or feign interest) that the reason you get work is because of your TALENT. The real reason you have a job and a fancy apartment is because you can’t keep a job anywhere else and your brother feels responsible for you. How many jobs have you been fired from now ? I guess those anger management courses never really paid off, and if I were you I’d tell your doctor the medication isn’t doing you a lot of favours either.
Anyway, looks like your on your own now, you stunted little psycho – I just wanted you to know that – literally- everyone else who has to work with you here squealed with JOY at the news of your firing. Here’s a tip: if you do manage to find another job somewhere, you may want to consider being a little nicer to the people who have to work with you.
Oh, and have fun trying to figure out which one of us wrote this, can you really think of anyone who wouldn’t ?
