How I almost got fired.
So, people read my blog, they leave me feedbacks about my posts. I hear a lot that I'm very smart and they like the way I write.
Ok, hereby I reveal a secret: I'm not as clever as I thought I was.
The other day I´ve been preparing a draft for my blog. I wanted to start a whole new project called ´´reception diaries´´ which came into my head on a boring afternoon. At work.
So I quickly started to write down my thoughts in Microsoft Word to print them out and then delete.
Well, I did print them out but I haven´t delete them.
As you all know, I like to write the whole truth with a hint of spicy words, juicy stories and to exaggerate a little bit.. So there was something very unpleasant about my General Manager and my roommate with who I´m having some issues (I say ''some'' because actually I have no clue wath is it about). Anyway, it would be really cool if I'd only delete that thing. But I forgot while it got busy.
As you can predict, just like in a comedy or a sitcom- my GM saw it. Not even saw, he printed it out and invited me for a talk. Such a cliché, isn't it?
I was sure that he will fire me I had no doubts about that. I already started to make a plan, what to do, where to search for a job, or maybe I should go for a week to Poland to visit my folks?
We sat down, we talked. I mean, he talked first. What did I have to excuse myself?
I said that acutally.. It was part of a fiction story based on real facts, with a huge exaggeration to make it more readable.
Not only that I got complimented on my writing style, I also got well informed about plans for extending contracts at the end of November and possibility for me to grow a little bit in the bussines ladder.
Altough I called my GM a gay who should come out of the closet, he still found my story funny.
Sure he said that it's unacceptable to spend time on personal hobby behind reception desk and to sell so many confidential matters to public view but in the end, I know we're cool.
Oh yeah, and he still claims he has a girlfirend (a-ha..!).
Anyway, that's the whole story. So now I am playing the role of employee of the month wannabe.
That was so awkward to hear from him that it's unpleasant to read that he's a pain in the ass, but oh well!
I got wawy with it so easily that I can barely believe my luck!
Stupid people always have good luck. That's what I'm sure of now.
