I left the dogs unattended for 30 seconds to save my dog. The one dog was hurt (a hound) and my boss had to pinpoint this on me somehow so that she could look good. Well cut to make the story short, I was told on Monday to come in the next day for pointers. I drove 45 mins up to my work to be told that I was being terminated. What makes me the maddest is having to drive that far up to be fired. What in the world. anyways now it's time to go job hunting again and I hate this process. So please pray for me while I look for a job.

Just one look at the ol' bat shoulda been 'nuff fer 'em ta see she weren't ta be trusted around food! ORWEN: Oh, little sister, if you wanna' avoid being embarrassed to tears, you should stay strictly OFF the topic of being fired! Remember how you went ballistic at Disneyland back in 1985 when you managed to get the entire cast of The Black Cauldron fired when you couldn't control that vile temper of yours? Just because an old man mistook us for cleaning women on Main Street and wondered why we weren't lifting a figure to clean up the horse pucky on the pavement, you jumped on top of him and started beating him on the head until it took 3 insecurity guards to pull you off of him! That had to be the most embarrassing day of my sorry life--all because of YOU! ORDDU: In the meantime we're all keeping our fingers crossed that we don't get fired from our latest venture into the work-a-day world. (We currently work for a company called Brooms to Go!) Anyway, KatieKate123, dear, we sincerely hope you find a new job soon. Many hugs to you from Morva!

Originally Posted By Witches of Morva ORGOCH: Just had ta bring that up, didn'tcha, Labuda, ducklin'? Talk 'bout one a the most embarrassin' experiences in my whole sorry life! And that's ANOTHER job we all got fired over! 1985 was the beginnin' an' the end of my show business career! But then whadaya expect after havin' share ev'ry dang scene I was in with two looney sisters like mine? Didn't have a snowball's chance in hell ta win no academy awards standin' next ta THEM two losers! ORWEN: (Gasp!) I beg your pardon, old biddy! If our scenes were ruined at all it's because of YOU!! It's not my fault that they decided to change their minds and give the body that was originally intended for me to that Jessica Rabbit person!! But even so, I still ended up being the prettiest looking sister witch in Morva!! ORDDU: Now, girls, this is no time to be high-jacking someone's topic. This is about KatieKate123 and her job seeking situation. (Besides that, if things work out the way I'm hoping, I might be getting a job as a personal doctor's assistant to Dr. Hans Reinhart. That could lead to a marriage and I'd be set for LIFE!!! Keep your fingers crossed for me, everybody!!)
