Render unto Ceaser that witch is Ceaser’s by Mike on Myspace

I used to have a helpdesk position for a growing advertizing company. During my short tender there I saw many people come and go; mostly due do their own accord. Supporting more than 20 type-a personality can be very stressful to say the least. There was one termination that shook and made me uneasy. This employee wasn't even with the company two months and I didn't think for a second that the circumstances of his firing had to do with performance. I remember the vice president telling me that morning that "we are going to be letting Kevin go today and once he turns in his laptop I'm going to need you [me] to set it up for me." The VP needed a new laptop because his was stolen a few days before. Of course I did what I was told but I didn't have to like it.

For the longest time I thought of the VP as an asshole but putting it in perspective I don't blame him. He is the VP for a reason. You have to have a cold calculating persona in order to succeed in the world. You have to do whatever it takes in order to breakthrough barriers and stay on top. If it's one thing I've learned from this experience it's that difficult choices need to be making with conviction and without flinching in order to survive.

Come to think about it Kevin was kind of an idiot.
