It's amusing to think this was that company's loser boss version of firing by voicemail. New load of tile, you put all the tile on the roof, hey there's one extra, hey there's writing on it, aw what the hell!!?

I'm reminded of the Kids in the Hall sketch where a boss calls his underling in for a superficially normal work meeting, puts his feet up on the desk, and "You're" "Fired" is written on the bottom of his shoes, sending hints until the employee quits.
