The manager called me to his office.
I was set for my employee discount,
Only to get fired from my first job.
I contained myself for a few moments
And texted my mom to get me early
As I went out to the curb and let loose.
I tossed aside my dumb little name tag
As a big smile stretched across my face.
No more of those terrible managers,
No more of all the so-so customers,
No more useless union pinching my pay
Despite doing nothing at all for me
But fire me on the 89th day.
I thank that job for one sole thing:
Making me never want a job like that one.
