When I set off work this morning,my car broke down,so I ended up taking the bus.As soon as I get off ,I bumped into an old schoolmate ,Mark.While we talking,he brought up something I had already found out from some mutual friend-that he had come into some money and had set up his own business.He told me that there was a lot to sort out,and offered to take me on, but I turned him down straight away.
When I clocked in,my boss had a go at me,telling me off in front of everyone.When I got over the initial shock,I told her I'd make up for being late,but it turned out that she had blown up over deal that had fallen through,after a client of mine had pulled out of a contract.
She told me that I wouldn't get away with it,that I'd everybody down,and just went on and on......
Eventually,I ran out of patience and answered back-I said I was not going to put up with it anymore,and if she wanted to lay me off,she should go ahead.Anyway,to cut a long story short,I stormed out,phoned Mark's secretary,who put me through your to him.I told Mark I'd like to take him up on his offer.So,in the end,everything has worked out perfectly!
