FML Open Letter (work related)
Dear Boss,
You know, I truly don't mind being reprimanded for my mistakes. By all means, I take criticism to heart and hope that any changes I make can be reflected in my performance as a better employee in the future.
I screw up, you yell. I get it, improve and you benefit. Win, win.
But this time, I'm catching hell for something I have no control over. You asked for directions to XYZ. I took the address for XYZ listed on your brochure, put it into Google Maps with your home address. I printed the directions and stapled it to your brochure and hotel information.
Yesterday, you called and said, "OMFG these directions are WHACKED! IDK where I am but YOU GAVE ME THESE BAD DIRECTIONS! Get me to the right place NOW!" I got coirker to pull up the maps and call you back. As it turns out, the road you were on is just on the back side of the convention center's property. You simply had to follow it in a loop to the front doors. In fact, the road you were on led to the parking garage and valet station. When we called to give you that information, you screamed, "BUT I'M FLUCKING LOST AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE I AM!" Then you hung up on us like a 15 y.o.
Today, you strolled in around 2p.m. with a funk in your attitude that only prescription medication can cure. You've done nothing but complain about how you missed your conference yesterday and had to turn around and come home thanks to *MY* directions.
As I explained,
#1. I do not work for Google Maps.
#2. I've never been to this convention center, so IDK where the fluck it is.
#3. And this is the most important - YOU HAVE A MOMOFLUCKING LEXUS WITH A FULL NAVIGATION SYSTEM. Why in the everlovingfuck am I printing out directions for you?!?!!?
#4. I'm sorry you were lost and the directions were confusing.
#5. It is not my fault that the directions were wrong.
#6. Again, I am sorry you missed your annual convention.
#7. I will not apologize again.
Sincerely,
Legolicious

He's the kind that will drive his car into a lake because the GPS told him to, ala Michael Scott. Clearly that's why he wanted Google Maps. His GPS is trying to drown him.
BTW, his own fault for not having enough time to get to the convention if he had never been to the site before.
