ass. What man worries about the mayo on his damn sandwich? I guess the same kind that requires non-dairy, low fat French Vanilla creamer for his coffee every morning.
“What did you say to me?” he asks, slowly and quietly like he can’t believe I’ve insulted him in such a disrespectful manner.
“Which part? The part about your ridiculous name or the part about you being named after a character from Gilligan’s Island. I can’t keep track with you anymore.”
“That’s it. That’s the last straw,” he says, sitting down and opening his desk drawer for what I can only assume is a termination slip. “I’m sick of you always being late.” His hand scribbles across the slip. “I’m tired of the stupid ass excuses.” He looks up at me. “I mean, come on, a grade school kid has more believable excuses than you.” He goes back to writing. “And I’m tired of you either not doing something or screwing it up when you do. You’re fired.” He says, tearing out the slip and trying to hand it over.
My eyes widen and my mouth falls open. “I’m fired? I’m fired?” I yell, taking the bag with his sandwich in it and throwing it onto his lap. “Good fucking reddens. You think you’re going to keep an assistant with your attitude? With all your whiney, I’m rich and better than you demeanor? Ha, good fucking luck. Duces, Mr. Matthew Lewis the third.” I flash him a peace sign and leave his office, slamming the door behind me. Daniel heard everything and he’s leaning against my desk with his arms crossed over his chest, laughing his ass off.
“What’s so funny?” I ask, moving around my desk and grabbing my things. Luckily for me, I don’t have much here. My purse, jacket, and phone.
He shakes his head. “I’ve just never heard anyone tell him off like that before. Funny shit.”
“Well, I’m sorry your entertainment for the day is leaving but as I’m sure you heard, I’ve been fired.”
He waves his hand through the air. “I’m sure you’ll be back.” He stands up to walk to his office.
“Don’t hold your breath,” I say, just as the door clicks shut.
I spin on my heel and head for the door myself, more than ready to put this place behind me. As I’m about to push through the door, Matthew’s golf clubs catch my attention. That asshole deserves everything that’s coming to him. Maybe I should help karma out a little. I grab a club and take it out with me. In the parking garage where he parks—because his priceless sports car is worth far too much money to park in the parking lot with us common folk—I lift the golf club and swing, smashing out his headlight. It feels so good to let the aggression out. My body floods with endorphins and powers me to do more. I move to the other side and swing again, busting out the other headlight. I move around the car, swinging at the taillights. I’m tired and my breathing is heavy, I’m about to drop the club and walk away when I think of one last thing. I climb up on the hood and swing again and again, busting the windshield.
“Hey! Stop!” someone yells. I toss the club, grab my purse off the ground, and take off running.
