Madness @ Work

There was a little mix-up about being clocked in and it turned funny.

NP came in to work and was immediately asked to do something by the Pit Boss. He got hot on the case and worked like a fiend for five minutes, then realized he had not clocked in for the day. He clocked in, then went and took back those five minutes by sucking on a cancer stick.

PB came out and told him to clock back in when he came in from the smoke pit. He had clocked NP out. This was the lesser of two punishments. Company Owner #1 has an office window overlooking the smoke pit and the General Manager had wanted to send NP home for the day without pay to teach him a lesson. I told NP he could have used the day to find himself another job.

VFD: (as prospective future employer) So, Mr. NP, why did you leave your last job?
VFD: (as NP): Well, they sent me home without pay for smoking on the clock, and I didn't appreciate not being able to smoke cigarettes on company time.
NP: LOL (in fake hurt voice) Shut up!
VFD: LOL
