Apparently I live in a book titled 1984

Because I was fired from work due to a joke.

I cant fucking believe it. Make one joke about shooting people at work in an absurd manner while also in context of myself being an ex-bounty hunter, being an ex-heroin junkie, and going home to do my usual activity of cleaning-guns-getting-drunk-riding-dirt bikes.

Fired.

"If you yelled bomb at an airport as a joke...." They tried to tell me. Pardon me, but this is a fucking machine shop, not an airport. If I reported every lewd joke made about another, all the anger, all the bullshit, well I could've had a lot of people fired as well. I just have the misfortune and BASIC LOGIC to know these were jokes. Seriously, I know times have changed, but this is bullshit. I didn't know I had to be such a conservative fag at work. I thought people there knew me better. Hey, lets stop jokes at work that are not safe, even though they're obviously jokes.

The one gay kid and manly lesbo of all people reported me to the office. People I didn't even want to talk to because they're ugly, but did anyways because I figured I would be social. Do I need to wear a fucking shirt with a disclaimer or something? "Warning, makes jokes, potential threat".

So great, now when people ask me why I was fired from work I can tell them: "People thought I was going to bring two uzis in and shoot my coworkers whom I got along with. Well right after I get drunk and clean/reload my guns on my dirt bike in traffic."
