As I put the finishing touches on my previous post, I received a rather unexpected departure notice from my best minion, let’s call him Number 2.
I really hate seeing Number 2 go because the kid has panache. He won me over several months back when he proposed a simple overhaul to a major process. I liked his plan and brought it up the food chain. After explaining everything to management they were standoffish citing their failed attempts at a similar process improvement a few years back. Just that moment, Number 2 shut them down saying, “It will work. If it doesn’t work, you can fire me.”
They were silenced, we were given approval and he made it happen.
He also knew never to bother me from 8:30-11am. Any interruption during these hours would earn him a face full of boiling hot coffee and a demand for a refill. Number 2 always took it in stride.
He didn’t die or anything, he just quit. Best part, he doesn’t have another shitty corporate job lined up. He just knows he’s not being utilized to his fullest potential and that he’s not paid enough.
I applaud the ambition of this young man, who will never read this. 40 oz bottles of malt liquor will be poured out this evening to Gangsta’s Paradise. Farewell Number 2, I know you will.

number 2 is a God damned idiot.
Never leave an opportunity unless another lies in the balance.
They’re knocking his god damned door down, he can code and scored above 90 percent on his first two CPA exams.
