When they told me that I was fired, I had to pack my shit up RIGHT THEN and leave....I was working there for three years and I couldn't even walk around and say goodbye...

So when the white lady told me to not look at porn at my next job, I told that bitch that I was going to get paid for what she just fired me for.....I had already bought my domain name and had a popular yahoo club at the time so I went home, built the site, put up ccbill, and sent an email to my yahoo club....Within an HOUR, I had my first sale and I've been doing this ever since.......A year later, I sent an email to the boss and the couple of snitches with me in the DR with two bitches and told them that I'm making more than my boss....



So YES, when I was fired, they dig me one of the biggest favors of my entire life....
