Today I learned...

No doubt. There's an ass-ton of liquid water beneath the service, so we'd just need to degas things a bit, dissolve the oxygen from solution, and then torch the joint!

Beneath the service?

Dude, you've been in the restaurant business way too long.

Whoops. I could open a restaurant on Titan, though. They're all the same.

And then there's the Restaurant at the End of the Universe.

Yeah, that jumped into my head about 30 seconds. I actually just got let go a few weeks ahead of schedule, so it's it more of a So Long and Thanks for all the Fish.

 

[CatrionaGrace]

I actually just got let go a few weeks ahead of schedule,

Do I say CONGRATULATIONS! or fuck those ingrates for not giving you more notice?

Sounds like it is time to write a story

I'm cool with it. Honestly, I'm shocked I wasn't shown the door a month ago. They're hemorrhaging cash like you wouldn't believe. All the shit I've been warning them about for years. Whatevs... ain't my bitch.

Welcome to the club, I was unceremoniously let go last Thursday, my position had been eliminated. Retirement is a few years early. Sign of things to come, recession on the way.

Sorry to hear about it. I had started transitioning over 3 months and was planning to leave in two weeks. Fine by me to call it early. I'm fairly certain my position would have been axed by the end of the year anyway. As the guy who monitored the finances and business models, I would have capped my ass too.

I sensed it coming, two high level fellow employees were forced retired at last year's end. I knew my number was up, but I'm 73 years old and really wasn't ready to retire but I won't miss the commute to work.

I'm 47 and more than ready to retire. Ain't happening just yet, but I'm taking as much of 2026 as I can.

BTW ads to pay the server fees are dropping tomorrow.

Kidding.

One of the things that I like best about retirement from A Real Job is not having to be somewhere at a particular time. Unfortunately, as my own boss, I am stuck with this insubordinate employee who talks back and spends too much time reading on the job. Bitch.
