My birthday was on Tuesday. I was so excited and dressed classy to work that morning. Normally, the small company I work at throws a big party for every employee on their special day. So, I was expectant.
As the day went on, nothing was done for me, not even a “Happy Birthday” came my way. I didn’t want to be rude, so I stayed silent.
Later on that day, about an hour before closing, I got news that they didn’t do anything because I was getting laid off. I felt like entering the ground. I cried all the way home.
Trying to get myself back together now… I hope I never have such a birthday again!
