It was the start of the same ol' boring routine; Wake up, clean up, breakfast and go to work, work, return from work, have dinner, do some browsing or watch TV, sleep risen and repeat. You sighed as you started to get up and place the sheet back to the bed.; it was an soul crushing life, one that college didn't prepared you for it. Always went for the motivation aspect or achieving the dreams but didn't tell you that once you are out of it, you are far more concerned on having an stable income and have enough savings to keep paying taxes and not end out on the streets that you lose any notion of it, having a family will only end it further and the pay become even tighter.
It was a soul crushing life that can't get any worse-

*RII~IIN- Beep!*
'Hello! This is anon, please leave your message after the tone *Beep!*'
~Hey Anon! Is me, Reggie! You know, from the job! Just wanted to tell you that you didn't have to come now...~ You looked at the phone weirdly, what was he is saying? ~Remember the allegations that company got of a supposed victim an year ago that Team A got us into? Well, I don't know if you read the news by now but you it's becoming worse and there has been mass firings in the company, this is including members of Team B and C, that includes me... and you. ~ What?!
You rushed and picked up the phone "Reggie? What do you mean we're fired?!"
~Hey! You answered! I guess this make things more... difficult.. So.. Yeah. It's pretry messed up, Anon. Team A had cought up on covering and erasing evidence, HR isn't being helpful as always and the tops are deciding that the other teams aren't valuable anymore and is firing us with the pretext of being an 'restructuring' which is a facing way on covering their loses, threaten us to not say anything and will contract an bunch of subpar but cheap yes men.~
"But... That's bullcrap! We literally are stationed on different buildings! None of the subsequent Team after A have this frat boy culture like them, why are we getting punished as well?"
~Maybe because some on our Team and C are using this to demand better wages as well working conditions , remember that executives said last week? They promised better... everything! I thought that a changed CEO would be a change for the better but this is getting worse by the minute.~
"Yeah.. tell me about it. God... There isn't even a bonus as a thanks or something?"
~Nope! All we're getting is just a thanks and the whole confidentiality deal as well thin veiled threat on not talking about this. Ohe boy, nobody liked that, there will protests outside the campus and other offices, our story is on the media now; we're not laying this down, Anon.~
"Agh! I really needed that payment! May be an misery but I need it to complete some debts."
~What? You went into some dangerous people, Anon?~
"Of course no! No even joke about that! I'm talking about my livehood! By the next months, I'll be on the streets if I don't pay my rent!"
~Well, sorry to hear that but if its of any consolation; maybe with all this outcry going on will get us something. I'm already talking with some powerful people, Anon; Media outlets, Goverment officials, Everything!~
"I don't think it's a good idea involving the goverment, Reggie."
~Maybe but this is case that goes deeper than a murder victim and abysmal job culture.~
"I see.. Good thing too, didn't felt like going out for today."
~... Yeah, can understand that. Well Anon, I have to hang out, gotta talk with some of the press, I'll be on TV Anon!~
"Yeah, you be a super star in no time." You rolled your eyes as you heard him chuckling from the other end."
~Haha, anyway, I have to go, have a nice day.~
"Same to you Reggie." And with that you ended the call. You sighed then groaned in pure frustration. Yeap, it went for worse. Now you're out of job with lots of free time, nothing more can really ruin this day now! At least you have tons free time but not much money to spare.
