From your e-mail, I'd say you are suffering from more than three. Check out the list and see if you agree.
1. You don't fit in. Your values don't match the company's.
2. Your boss doesn't like you and you don't like him or her.
3. Your peers don't like you. Feeling isolated, gossiped about, and excluded from the inner workings of the organization is a very bad sign, as is feeling that you're not part of the team and wouldn't socialize with your colleagues even if they asked you.
4. You don't get assignments that demonstrate the full range of your abilities.
5. You always get called upon to do the "grunt work." 6. You are excluded from meetings your peers are invited to. Sound familiar? If it's painfully clear that your ideas aren't valued, why stick around?
7. Everyone on your level has an office. You have a cubicle in the hallway.
8. You dread going to work and feel like you're developing an ulcer. Ah, here's yet another of your symptoms, and a particularly nasty one at that.
"If the idea of going to the office makes you anxious or physically sick, and you're counting the hours from the time you arrive until the second you can leave, it's time to move on," says Bayer.

I like to think of myself as irreplaceable...Mrs. labette assures me that in reality, I’m the only person stupid enough to do the job this cheap!
Welcome to my world L0L
OK,now i am upset..I’m out of balance...i’m leaning too much to the right...That’s bad because it means i’m missing a pen or pencil...ALRIGHT, WHO’S GOT MY FRIGGIN #2 Pencil?.....and those cabinets behind me..everytime i turn around-wham,right in the face...and the bulletin board is under the cabinet so i have to bend under it to get to my notes...Is this what happens when you are on the way out ?...you get the worst cubicle ?....#11
“I cant get fired, Im self-employed.”
In that case, your boss just stops paying you.
Honest. Just happened to me.
Truth is, that if your’e at the bottom you get stepped on, If your’e at the top you get sniped at. If you are middle management you get it from both ends.
It is what it is
If you fit this profile your probably a socialist, belong to MoveOn.org and have a willingness to vote for Hitlery.
You worked at the public library?
Instead of deserved raises, your company now offers cheap prizes and phony, unrealistic incentives in lieu of raises, and suddenly everyone goes from salaries to being paid on a commission basis.
When this happens, you know things are going down hill fast.
I just helped my son-in-law through a period of “unjust firing” by a uppity, self-serving female. Advised him to write a letter to the home office explaining the circumstances about his dismissal and requesting a company investigation in to the possible unjust and “illegal” termination of his position. The HR people and lawyers were falling all over themselves and he got his job back, a bonus, personal cellphone number of the President of the company and offered training as a district manager.
There is justice in life. You sometimes just have to use PSYOPs and the cunning of a retired Special Forces Sergeant Major to up to and almost terminate someone who is nothing but a rectum to society.....
If you got to go down...go down fighting and take as many of the enemy with you as you can.....
You worked at the public library?
Sounds like any government job.
Hey it’s not a big deal you got fired. Pretty obvious you’re defensive about it. Sure you’re a nice fellow and all...
I like your attitude
Hasn’t happened in 28 years and I’m pretty sure it won’t before I retire.
9. Your company car is a Yugo.
10. The owner of the company keeps referring to you as “that new guy Harry hired right before he was fired.”
9. You feel like you are back in high school.
"#9. You work in an office of stinking, slime ballMarxists liberal socialist leftist pigs who vote Dimocratand love abortion and homosexuals and hate the USA and the military." You worked at the public library? Sounds like any government job.Sounds like a lot of places I worked in Silicon Valley. The tech industry in the bay area is a festering hive of moonbats.
The cubicles around you continue to be emptied.....(This is happening to my husband as I write. The remaining are waiting for an “announcement.”)
CAN’T.
STOP.
LAUGHING!!!!!!!!
Brilliant job, sir!
ROTFLMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GREAT movie!
ping in case I ever have to work again.
