I Didn't Really Know What to Expect

When I moved to Green Bay, I didn't really know what to expect when I got here. Please note that I am not being racist or any other "ist" in this post. I'm just stating what I was told and experienced.

When I was packing to leave for GB, my mom told me that one of her friends told her that everyone here was red neck white dudes who drink beer and don't really like people of my skin color. Nevertheless, I came anyway. As it turns out the area is quite diverse, except at the station where I worked. That's right. WORKED.

Last Monday they decided to let me go. They said it was because that I wasn't learning their switcher fast enough. This is the same switcher that will be gone in a month anyway because they brought me in to teach em the new system. I really think that they were worried about having a less than perfect ratings period (started on Wednesday) which really wouldn't have happened. They would have been fine as opposed to their February ratings which will suck because these old bastards don't know how to use this new system.

Funny, I left a job and an area i was unhappy at to go to a place i relatively enjoyed, only to get fired. Oh well, shit happens and karma's a bitch. So I will be off home to Tacoma tomorrow. When i said i missed it a few months ago, this isn't exactly what I meant. But it will be nice to be back.

Until Next time

    I am so sorry to hear that they let you go. Will you be going back to Tacoma permanently? I hope you're doing well!
