Unless of course you refuse to listen to/believe my side of things. Too much junk too little details, and right now I'm too damn nervous to explain it all.

I just pray I can post an update to this from my office machine in the next hour.

Do you have some notes you can take in, to help defend yourself? Also, think about a few things to say if they spring the dreaded question, "Given all of this, can you give even a single reason why we should keep you on here?" :p

Altho, with firings, they tend to spring them on you when you aren't expecting it*. So I'd say this is more likely to be a formal warning.



*speaking from my own experiences :D

No wonder he got fired, his memory ain't worth squat. :)

He was supposed to come back and let us know what happened. Add to that unreliable. :)

Good luck man, we're pulling for ya'.
