freshly fired
I've just been fired from the restaurant. When I told Marcus, the boss, that I'm going to Morocco on holidays during August he got very upset. He thinks that after just 3 months working there I couldn't ask for a whole month off. He said that I'm all the time asking for days off, and now also this... As the British say, it was "the straw that broke the camel's back".
The thing is that I agree with him for once. In fact, I loved the people at work, and in particular I really loved my dear manager Metin. But Marcus was right saying that I was becoming too demanding. What happened is that working there was becoming more and more boring for me. And having to do two jobs at the same time was too much, I had nearly no spare time. So I wanted to leave Café Emm and at the same time I didn't know how because they had been so kind with me. Somehow I feel relieved after all.
But I also feel quite sad; I'm going to miss Metin so much! He was the great thing about working at Café Emm. He was so funny, always making jokes to create the nice atmosphere, so helpful from the beginning when he hired me... There was some sort of platonic love going on between us.
