Will My Boss Fire Me ???

    I've been working in a cafe for the last four months. Everyday my boss is really mean to me. He tells me that I'm not doing enough work and he shouts at me.

    Today I was cleaning the floor, and he walks over and drops a burger on the ground. "Call that floor clean, that's not clean" he shouted. He then got an omelette and mushed into a table I had just cleaned.

    I snapped. I walked over to him and looked him square in the eye. "Big mistake pal" I said. I then picked up a big bowl filled with strawberry jelly and dumped it on his head. But that's not where it ends. Two of my work collegues who he has tormented for many years then began mushing spagetti bolognese in his face.

    The whole cafe then began dancing and singing in synchronization. All the customers he had overpriced for all those years started cheering and suddenly music started playing. It really was quite remarkable.

    This was the music that started playing.


    Everyone in the cafe was dancing and then trumpets started playing. It was fantastic. We then walked out onto the street where a big parade had formed. Are boss disorientated by the commotion was staggering around while everyone was dancing and cheering all around him. It was magical. I will never forget it.

    Anyway, in hindsight it may not have been the best idea in the world as it's my only source of income and the job markets fairly tough out there. Do you think he will be mad when I turn up for work on Monday?

    If he was as bad as you make him sound, it sounds like he was a thug/bully anyway and your better off out of the place.

    Whose bowel was it - and why was it full of strawberry jelly?

    Should have listened to Graham Norton on bbc - far less annoying.

    Look. These things happen. You are probably making too much of it in your head. He probably won't even remember.

    Lads, christ, this really does sound like a jennifer anniston romcom...if ya did that to your boss (granted, OPs name is indication of age)...in real life. for your boss to manage out of your job is a major realistic result here in fairness....

    Martin, did any of your story actually happen?
    Like is it completely fictional, or based loosely on the truth?
