If you’re in the mood to throw yourself under a bus, don’t do it in Somerset, England because the boss of a Somerset bus company, Nippybus, just took his entire fleet off the road and gave everybody the sack, in an epic profanity laced memo.The Guardian:
In an internal memo to staff, Sydney Hardy, 57, explained in no uncertain terms he was “getting off” after 13 years in charge of Nippybus, which is based in the village of Martock, near Yeovil.
He wrote: “There is a difference between giving up and knowing when you have had enough. I have had enough and realise I cannot work with you, the people I employ, a moment longer.
“There comes a time in any relationship when you just have to say ‘Fuck it’, say goodbye and move on. This is my time! I am quitting to pursue my dream of not having to work here.”
Hardy added: “The gates are now closed and will not open so you can stay in your scratchers and have a lie in.”
The gates were indeed closed on Wednesday and Hardy was not available for further comment. A security guard was posted at the fence and fetched possessions for employees who arrived from time to time. Some were also handed payslips – though they said no money had gone into their banks.
Most men live lives of quiet desperation, but this man is quiet no more. It’s the full moon in Ares, God of War, tonight. Just sayin.’ It’s no wonder the Brits haven’t invited Donald Trump to visit. They have quite enough to deal with already.
