High Five Part 2

I am now in a predicament. As I stand here watching my boss with her hand in the air waiting, just waiting for a high five. I think quickly, I tell her I am getting A cold and I don’t want to spread any germs. I walk out of the conference room and I honestly feel like skipping to my office. No high five for her!! The next morning I get to work with every intention of milking this “cold” for as long as possible. I check my email and my boss has the nerve to write that I should stay home until I am over my cold, to prevent anyone else from getting sick. I know good and damn well this is retaliation for not giving her a high five. I plan on going to her office to give her a piece of my mind. I get there and she is in tears. Her assistant says she was just fired for reasons she doesn’t know yet. Her boss walks out her office I immediately raise my hand to give him a high five.
