15 years of slaving away at a place that I poured my soul into? Not even a "hey, what can we do to keep you?" Right, so that's how it is. I guess I know I made the right choice. Oh...and if you're wondering why my boss didn't answer...he didn't have my number programmed in his phone, so he didn't know who I was...15 years. Wow.
So...here's to a bit of freedom starting in just under 2 weeks. I think I'm gonna start a blog, and maybe post more on here. Kinda still in shock!
OP, methinks the title of Johnny Paycheck's song is apropos in itself.
So is the lyric "I been workin' in this factory For nigh on fifteen years."
"Take This Job and Shove It" Johnny Paycheck
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left and took all the reasons
I was working for
You better not try to stand in my way
'Cause I'm walkin' out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
I been workin' in this factory
For nigh on fifteen years
All this time I watched my woman
Drownin' in a pool of tears
And I've seen a lot of good folks die
That had a lot of bills to pay
I'd give the shirt right offa' my back
If I had the guts to say
Take this job and shove it
I ain't working here no more
My woman done left and took all the reasons
I was workin' for
You better not try to stand in my way
'Cause I'm walkin' out the door
Take this job and shove it
I ain't workin' here no more
Well that foreman, he's a regular…
