Usurped!
I've been usurped!
I am no longer the hottest topic of conversation here at work. The Payroll Chick totally stole my thunder on Friday.
See, since Nicki left us and the new Payroll Chick took over, the job STILL doesn't have any back-up or help or anything! So it was really only a matter of time before she left.
But there was an additional factor that made P.C.'s career here much shorter than Nicki's. They switched bosses on her, and instead of having a cool, non-meddling boss, she got G.M.'s Golden Boy. Bringing her that much closer to G.M.'s Evil Lair.
I'd quit, too. Oh, wait -- I ALREADY DID!!!
When I talked (i.e. gossiped) in the bathroom with her for 20 min. on Tuesday, she didn't mention anything about quitting. So I'm thinking that it was some unexpected incident that was the last straw, and she just couldn't take it anymore. Proverbial straw, meet camel.
Seems she gave G.M.'s Golden Boy her resignation and ten days notice. And G.M. waddled over, collected her key card from her and told her not to come back. He really has a way with the ladies.
And as much as I hate being upstaged, I'm kinda tickled that she quit, too. I mean, I'm sorry it got that bad for her -- she's a cool broad. But it just further proves that this place is ass on toast to work for.
I'm kinda disappointed that she didn't tell me. We could have staged some grand mass exodux, a la "Jerry McGuire" or something.
"I! Will go with you!"
That would've been cool.
