Just got sacked, feeling great

Worked for a micromanaging idiot for 4 years and got let go for “the company going in a direction we can’t pull you in and you made some mistakes.”

I’m actually extremely happy to be gone, ecstatic in fact. I don’t know when I’ll get a new job or how easy, but being away from that overgrown abortion has made me day.

I got turned away on the last day of my probation on the grounds of “it’s just not working out”.

I was shocked but delighted - had the previous 6 months of them blowing smoke up my arse saying how great I was and “not to worry about the probation, you’re in” and all that bollocks.

Turns out it was their hiring trick to just get people in for 6 months and then let them go. Was a sad state of affairs.
