I stood up at the end of a meeting that I had to drive and stress and worry about for days today aftet it was five minutes of information we had already been emailed and yelled “WHAT THE FUCK, THAT’S IT?”


The deputy took me aside later but couldn’t even argue with me that it had been a manipulative waste of time and let me go

I was ‘officially’ told it was Frowned Upon that I yelled the above and more (“I wasted 40 minutes for this and I’m the only one working at my office!” and “We got all this information in an email already!”), but unofficially I’ve been given high fives and 'you said what everyone was thinking’ clearance from anyone who has any effect on my life, really.

I made no concessions and no apologies. And it felt good.

'You did that in front of the new people.’
'Now they know what they’re in for.’

'Don’t say those kinds of things where people can hear it.’

'My office is open if you just want to vent. Nothing leaves my office,’ says the woman I overheard gossiping about my disorder and got reported for fucking HIPAA violations.

'Could we have gotten all these faces in an email?’
Well, we’ve had photography since AT LEAST the 1800s, shitlord. It’s 2020, you figure it out.
