Default WMC - Told the Boss I Was Done!

So last week Wednesday I told the owner of my company that I would be looking for a new job, and would probably be moving on within a month or so. He responded by firing me on Friday!

Just wanted to put the word out that that I have all sorts of free time now. If anyone has any Corvette projects they need to tackle, get a hold of me. I have a fully equipped garage, and as most of you know, moreC5/C6 wrench time than I care to admit. (motor/trans rebuilds, driveline work, etc).

I'm getting bored! Send me a little motivation to not spend too much time on the TV and internet over the next couple weeks!

So by firing you, he gets to contribute to your unemployment checks!

Congrats and wish you the best. Your boss is not so smart a guy IMO so its best you move on. You offered to leave voluntarily and he fires you.

Good luck

Thanks Don! I may take you up on that. Right now I'm trying to decide what I want to do. I may wait until I put it up for the winter and do all the mods at once. Also I have a friend with a hoist, so it should make doing the headers a little easier.
