Please fire me. I’m not allowed to have a life. Ever. If my boss finds out that I have plans of any kind: dinner date, movie with friends, babysitting, even mowing my lawn or shoveling my mother’s driveway, he will slap me with mandatory overtime.

Please fire me. I’m 28 and work with mostly older coworkers. Today they decided it was a good idea to practice “twerking” in full view of the customers’ face palm (this happens a lot actually).

Please fire me. My boss lets my other coworkers have their cellphones on them at our front counter, yet when I brought a book to the front counter to read I was told I couldn’t read it because, “I’m wasting company time during her busy season.”
