A Greeeeeaaaaaat Day


When I woke up this morning, I let out a big sigh and just said “greeeaaaaaat.”  I woke up late, as usual, and got myself off to a bad start.  Maybe one day I’ll actually wake up on time, but for now that’ll never happen.  To make my day even better, as soon as I walked over to my closet full of emptiness I realized that I should probably do laundry at some point so I can actually have some clean clothes to wear.  So there I was all dressed up in dirty clothes that I tried to cover up with some body spray, which now made my clothes smell like a weird combination of good and bad.  As I walked over to the kitchen with the thought that I had food to look forward to, I had the most “beautiful” sight in the world: A fridge full of absolutely positively nothing.  I just had to let out another “greeeeeaaaat” before I was off to the place that I loved the most…..not.  On my way to work I was thinking “it’s okay, at least I get paid” and the thought of earning money essentially gave me the determination to actually go to work.  As I was trying to talk myself into how much I love working, some jerk came out of no where and cut me off like it was nothing to him.  As I saw him speed off I just hoped that some cop would be sitting and waiting for a guy like him to speed by, so his ass can have it.  But of course, he got away with cutting off me and almost every other car he encountered while I sat in my car heated with the fact that he almost wrecked my car and I couldn’t do anything about it.  So after this “wonderful” morning I finally made it to work and kept saying to myself “at least I’m getting paid.”  Once I finally got into my office and just wanted to get my shit done, I saw a note from my boss sitting on my desk.  I couldn’t help but let out another “greeeeaaaat.”  So there I was at my bosses office wondering what she possibly had to talk to me about.  All I wanted to do was go back to my desk and get my work done so I can go back home and my day would be over.  Once my boss finally came into her office, she came in with the biggest smile like everything was all fine and dandy.  The way she was acting even made me think "damn maybe I'm getting a promotion, finally."  So I sat there waiting anxiously and kind of excitingly for what she was going to say, when she let out words that hit me like bricks to the face.  "You have been working excellently and have really been an asset to our company, I really like the work that you've done and applaud you for it but I'm sorry I'm gonna have to let you go.  The company is just unable to keep you on as an employee as we need to make some cut backs," this statement turned my face from the biggest grin to the maddest stare anyone could have ever seen.  I literally just walked out of that room, grabbed all my shit from my office and drove home and didn't say one word the whole time.  Once I finally got home and just took a seat on my couch, you already know I couldn't help but let out the biggest "greeeeeaaaaaaaat" of all time.
