...and all I got was this lousy pen.
The top brass at my workplace completely stole my idea.
See, they give cash rewards to employees who come up with ideas that they decide to use. I don't particularly give a fuck about improving the workplace but they give out between $150 and $400 if they use your idea -- I once got $50 and they didn't even use my idea. The money's nice but, mainly, I wanted the letter they give you which says they used your bright idear, with which I could pad my resume.
So, I submitted my idea to my immediate supervisor, who checked to see if it was even worth thinking over, and she passed it on to the upper echelon douches.
I thought it was a damn good idea, too: I was already planning on what I'd spend the bread on.
A week later, I got a letter back saying thanks but no thanks, it's just not feasible. Oh, and a goddamn pen. This all happened a few months ago.
Well, today, my immediate supervisor was dicking around on the computer and found something: she said, "So, they decided to implement your idea afterall?"
"What?"
Yes, they did, but they didn't pay me or give me a fuckin' congratulatory letter. Miserable cunts. Naturally, since it was all senior management shitasses, I basically have no recourse.
This is a major, world-reknown company and I think there's even a rapper that took the name of the company.
Oh, well. Turns out it really WAS a good idea.
Nevermind. I'm just bitching. Please resume masturbating.
