King of my Domain ( The Great Escape )

Dec 1st Its official I am now unemployed. After being dealt the disrespect card by the evil VF Corp I became in sensed and got to all the people I needed to speak my mind to. Yes once again this unthinking and disconnected corp had decided that they would pay commissions 6 weeks later instead of 4 weeks. Without even considering the financial commitments of the life blood of stores they short changed all the individuals expecting and calculating there bill payments were left hanging for even longer for the sake of some Corporate saving or money manipulation for there benefit.Guess what, not I, this was the last straw I bitched and complained shouted and expressed my total disgust to all people necessary until all these people moved their slow and comfortable days into total recognition of this complete and utter disregard for the human work force that lives and breathes the JV brand. The next day all Seven stores received their checks
in an advance form minus 60% of total. So far I have yet to be thanked by any of the employees who now have there spending money as they had expected and not this coming Friday as the Corp had intended, However yours truly has been terminated because of such a subordinate act
" He is making us think about what we are doing get rid of him. " I feel sorry for all my fellow
retail monkeys they are afraid to leave the cage the door is open but they are so used to just staying in the confines of it that they never go through the door and explore and reap the benefits of the vast world full of rich fruits and lush vegetation waiting for their pleasure and enjoyment and so the stay stunned but obedient, back to work the fuss is over and all is now quiet in the retail penitentiary. Freedom is now so sweet I have escaped the boundaries of useless and repetitive work I feel a huge weight lifted from my shoulders.I can now work on my future with purpose and meaning I have learned much from these five years in retail , how to plan a business ,how to communicate with any one at a drop of a dime how important it is to follow up and deliver what is promised how to create opportunity from any starting conversation and most of all how I will treat my own partners and Employees I will pay them more than enough I will create an extra thank you bonus with money and events and outings gifts and plenty of thank you notes and hugs to show my appreciation of their time and to make sure that the feel ultimately a very important and valued individual. As I start this month I have no guarantees of where my month will end financially, and neither do any business owners they simply apply themselves into their business and reap the rewards of their efforts at the end. I have made the great escape I am now King of my domain.
