This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It's a running joke where I work just how hard it is to get fired. One of the few stories I know of someone who was fired involved an employee for whom my employer paid multiple times for courses of rehab. He was finally fired when after all that they found him at his desk so drunk they basically couldn't wake him at all.

On my first job, there were several employees whose jobs was to aimlessly wander around the office because they had a problem with their logins when they were hired and nobody bothered to fix it for them. Companies really don't give a shit.

I once saw a truck driver not get fired for getting caught for the second time stealing meat (whole carcasses) from the truck.

Similar stuff happens at my job. Only thing people really get fired for is getting into fights.
