What's your best? Fire me. I freaking dare you moment from work. Worked for a newspaper,

editing, and actually putting the paper together, arranging it all, placing stories and

pictures where they need to be, titling, quoting, and sourcing everything. I was a one-man

team and used an overly complicated system that I figured out how to use really effectively.

They treated me like garbage, set impossible deadlines, and berated me for not meeting them.

One day, the boss tells me to fully complete a paper by the end of the day.

Give me no warning.

I had no articles from the journalist and no photos from photographers.

It was my job to collect it all from everyone and he wants me to do it in a single day?

I told him no.

If he wants it done, he has to give me more time.

He tells me if I don't have it done by the end of the day, I'm fired.

I tell him that this paper can't function without me. He tells me I need to,

take the day off and cool my temper, and that he'll do my job for me. I get a call an hour after

get home, and that he needs me to come in and do it, and I can have as much time as I need,

promptly quit on that rumple. Forget your stinky newspaper.

Worked a job where I was the only one who knew how to take apart, clean, fix, and put all the equipment back together and do the weekly and monthly maintenance. I had a boss tell me one day

that I was doing a poor job and not doing enough and that anyone could do it.

If I didn't step up, I would be fired, or else they had manuals for each piece of equipment.

So that night, I took apart all the equipment, weekly and monthly stuff too, cleaned them,

and then just left it apart for them to figure out that morning.

Then I turned my phone off after getting home for the entire day as I had the day off.
