Dear Matt

I recently found out I’m going to be fired. My manager hasn’t said anything directly about it, but I was suspended and overheard him telling someone Friday would be my last day. I want to make a scene, but that’s what they expect. What can I do to really stick it to them?

Your friend,
Bobby Teenager

Bobby Teenager,

Here is a tip: if you have a uniform, or even a nametag, make sure you wear it while your manager is firing you.

Then, just when you’re about to make your exit after flipping over some trash cans, spitting on some kids, or whatever scene your instincts direct you to create, rip off the shirt/nametag and throw it in his face. It may seem like no big deal at first, but right around lunchtime, they will realize how insulted and scorned they now feel by your gesture.

Matt
