Colleagues Actually Kind Of Sad That Universally Hated But Entertaining Employee Is Leaving

There was a glum silence in a Betoota Heights office this morning, as employees at a marketing agency were left mourning the disappearance of a universally hated but highly entertaining colleague.

It’s alleged that the hated colleague in question, who will be referred to by his nickname ‘Teflon Tim’ for privacy purposes, was fired two weeks ago after the agency lost a major client.

Given more chances than most due to his close ties with the boss, it took multiple infractions and coworkers working together to compile evidence  for the boot to finally drop.

Though his firing was initially met with some jubilant Friday knock off drinks, it appears that everyone is feeling the loss now that the dust has settled.

“The office is quite boring now. Nobody really has anything to talk about now that he’s gone”, admits Gwen, who was one of the account managers who had the misfortune of working directly with Teflon Tim, “the shared hatred of him really brought everyone together.”

Paul, who worked as Tim’s subordinate, notes that the office is now unusually quiet.

“I feel like Tim was kind of a personality hire in his own way, but a shit personality”, explains Paul, “now there’s no more secret Slack conversations, or shared looks of horror.”

“Missing a day of work was like missing an episode of Love Island.”

“God I miss that prick.”

More to come.
