My boss here calls me up to her office at 4:30PM yesterday. I go there and she goes, “close the door Mike”….Hummm, this is very awkward, I think to myself. The conversation goes like this
Mike: What’s up?
Boss: Well Mike, your contract has been cancelled effective tomorrow.
Mike: May I ask why?
Boss: Upper management says that the project you’re working on has been re-classified and is no longer a priority.
Mike: Ok, I know this kind of stuff happens. One, question though. Why you pay so much money to get a guy like me in for just 3 three weeks, and all of the sudden change your mind like this.
Boss: Well Mike I really don’t have an answer, I’m just telling you what I was told.
Mike: Ok, I see. No problem then, I’ll pack up and complete what I can until tomorrow PM.
Boss: Ok, and I’m sorry for the short notice.
What pisses me off is that, after putting a move to NJ in 3 days and running around like a headless chicken for 2 weeks trying to get set, this people don’t even have the courtesy nor the decency to tell me in advance what is going on behind the scenes. Hell, I know that shit happens because I’ve been there and done that one too many times. But, hey, come on, at least I have always had the decency and the courtesy of keeping people informed so the have time to react and put their act together. Anyways, I guess that is just one of the many things happening around due to the country’s situation.
I think I’ll be flying home at some point next week. Meanwhile, I’m free to do anything, so bring it on for the weekend and next week NJ guys and gals.
