When I set off for work this morning, my car broke down, so I ended up
taking the bus. As soon as I got off, I bumped into an old schoolmate, Mark.
While we were talking, he brought up something I had already found out from
some mutual friends- that he had come into some money and had set up his own
business. He told me that there was a lot to sort out, and offered to take me
on, but I turned him down straight away. When I clocked in, my boss had a go at
me, telling me off in front of everyone. When I got over the initial shock, I
told her I’d make up for being late , but it turned out that she had blown up
over a deal that had fallen through, after a client of mine had pulled out of a
contract. She told me that I wouldn’t get away with it, that I’d let everybody
down, and just went on and on….Eventually I ran out of patience and answered
back– I said I was not going to put up with it anymore, and if she wanted to
lay me off, she should go ahead. Anyway, to cut a long story short, I stormed
out, phoned Mark’s secretary, who put me through to him. I told Mark I’d like
to take him up on his offer. So, in the end, everything worked out
perfectly
