I'm sure many of you are wondering what that word actually means. I myself was curious and being the luckbox I am I had the awesome opportunity to learn on Monday. The day started off well, went to work did that whole thing and then around 2pm things started going more poorly at a very rapid rate. I get a call from my manager requesting a meeting(*note at this point I know I'm getting shit canned). In the meeting they don't use the word fired or laid off, no my friends I was "excessed". Apparently it's the new rage, still fucking sucks regardless. Awesome economy strikes again, on the upside I got some relevant work experience and my boss and the director are going to write me letters of recommendation. There was four of us that ended up getting "excessed" in the department and probalby 50-100 company wide. The only part that is really irritating is it was based 100% off senority and 0% off performance. There is one person in particular who is utterly worthless and everyone knows it including the manager. The women's on a work plan which basically means if she does not improve she's getting fired in 3 months, but since she's been there longer she still has a job. Now I can follow my true dream of being a 25nl grinder that has very little ambition to play mass hands......LOL yeah I think this will work out nicely.
