Black Andy Dwyer
ATL
Welp, after a month and some change, I got fired right as I walked in. I walked into the office at exactly 9:02. As soon as I sat down he called me into his office. I'm thinking it's gonna be the daily meeting to go over the stuff we need to do for the day.
Instead he says "you're late and this is honestly not something I can keep have happening. We're going to have to let you go".
At first I thought he was joking. Like "ha, yeah good one. Me and them two minutes
"
But dude was dead serious and asked me to turn in my hours for the week so I could get my last check
Keep in mind this dude pretty much contradicted himself on more than one occasion. Before I even started I asked him about attendance. He told me "as long as you're not showing up ridiculously late, I'm good. I'm not the type to hold a stopwatch at the door to try and catch you.". Yet that's exactly what he did. Before y'all ask, the latest I've ever gotten into the office was 5 minutes.
And on top of that, this cat was training me on some other areas of the business because he told me there's a place for me with the company long term. This was Wednesday when he said that.
The icing on the cake is that while he was firing me, he was complimenting my work skills. Said I was good at what I did, but he couldn't have me coming in a few minutes late. He even said he'd be open to rehiring me on a temporary basis in the future
The only thing that makes me mad about this is I was offered a position with a black business that I turned down because I had already to committed to this two weeks prior
Anyway, I'm not tripping to be honest. I've had a strong desire to get back to my entrepreneurial pursuits but I had gotten complacent. so maybe this was the kick in the ass I needed
But yeah, free daps to everyone cause I apparently got some free time now

-CAC boss fired me this morning after a month despite always smiling to my face and acting like everything was all good.

Are you the last one to show up all the time? I don't see why he would make a big deal out of 2 minutes.
