well, right now basically my job is to keep the entire infrastructure of a retailers advertising team together. that entails everything from server management, database management, computer administration and applicaiton administration down to running proofs of ads back and forth from my company's office to the company that i'm on site at. my official title is "on site administrator". i've never once been late, nor have i ever failed to do my job. however 6 weeks ago the company i work with(not for) brought in a new creative director to handle the VP side of the advertising department. he hates me. it's a deep down kind of hate too, and i'm not sure what i did to make him do this.
so... this week one of my bosses told me he has a meeting witht he creative director at the unnamed retailer to discuss my companys job within their infrastructure... and one of the things they reviewed was my position and what i do there at the retailer. according to him "you've done an outstanding job at what you do". today he went into the meeting and left without saying goodbye to me like he normally does. about 4:00 i got a call from my company's big boss saying "charles, you need to come in here and we need to talk about some things before you go out to gardenrige on monday"
ok, so i freak out. i called him back about 15 minutes later and asked him what was going on, is my job in jeapordy, etc and all he could say was "I can't talka bout it". maybe i'm jumping to conclusions but the only thing i can think of is the creative director went into my boss and said "well i don't think we really need charles around here, and if you want us to continue to use your services you need to get rid of him"
it pisses me off that i couldn't just find out today and that i have to wait til monday. luckily enough i know my company gives a minimum of 2 weeks severance when someone is let go, I also have 84 hours of vacation time accrued so i know i'll get compensated for that, so that gives me 4 weeks to find a job. again, luckily, i have very generous parents. I went and talked to them about my situation and my mom said she's be able to pick up my car note until i can afford to again. that's a major relief.
cliffs:
i think i'm gunna get fired on monday, and i wish they wopuld have done it today to get it over with.
