This April Fools’ they almost had me.
I got into work and was greeted by a note in the office. It was a resignation for who is essentially my assistant, and one of two supervisors in the building. Not good. I had no idea why she’d be putting in notice and as I was considering calling my boss at home (while on vacation) or possibly my district manager I began tidying up the table. I then came across another note. This one from the other supervisor. Again with the two weeks notice! What!? That was when I started to think it was a joke, and said as much out loud. The manager I was training was there and he began to chuckle. Next to him was a stack of several more resignations from associates in the building. It was pretty funny, yet how scary if it were true!
I was then greeted by 12 people outside the office shouting “April Fool” or whatever. Some of the kids were on their own time! I really felt the love today… It says something when they choose you for stunts like that in my line of work.
