Synopsis

As my colleagues wrapped up a week of putting in hard work overnight, they were all set to celebrate with a dinner. Meanwhile, I submitted a ten-thousand-word letter accusing the entire team of shirking their responsibilities. Their bonuses were wiped out, performance ratings nullified, and salaries deducted. Everyone was in shock and questioned me relentlessly. The young recruits just entering the workforce were furious, and one even stormed up to give me a slap. "It's people like you who ruin the job market!" "Just because you're the top salesperson, you think you're so great? We've all put in a hard week of work, and you can't stand to see us relax for a moment?" They were all waiting for my explanation, anticipating that I'd plead for mercy. But having lived through this ninety-nine times before, I simply held my cheek and chuckled. "Yes, I do think I'm great. And no, I can't stand it." "If you have the guts, go ahead and fire me!"
