Laid off

Well today at 3:00 I got a call from a place I used to work at that they needed somebody to start tomarrow, so I gave them a call and politely informed them that I wasn't interested. While on the phone with them I get an incoming call, I ignored it and the caller left a message. I was no longer needed at my current position and dont bother showing up tomarrow So I promptly give the other company a call back and tell them I would like to start with them Monday. So I am unemployed till Monday and now will be only working 4 days a week starting Monday I cant wait to start real estate.

Seriously, that's fawked that they would leave a message like that. Sounds gutless. I would just show up tommorrow and act like you never got that message.

I say keep showing up until they have to call the cops to take you away. Every time they bring up the fact that you no longer work there, start muttering incomprehensible gibberish.
