Two Weeks’ Notice:

Four Days Until #PleaseFireMeFriday

Our book is out. Celebrate by joining in 5/6/11 for Please Fire Me Day. Walk out after lunch and party. Tweet in your plans using the hashtag #PleaseFireMeFriday or send them in on our Tumblr or Facebook.

The mission of the Please Fire Me Friday is to unite and make public the huge number of malemployed people out there and show our economic power to effect change in the workplace. It will take massive public demonstrations, labor shortages and lost earnings to change how workers are treated by corporations that only consider the profit motive.

To keep the Please Fire Me Friday fun and in a throwback to senior ditch day (doesn’t that j-o-b feel like the limbo of your last year of high school?) PleaseFireMe.com is organizing the nation-wide strikes and urging all workers (and sympathetic managers—you were workers once too) to leave after lunch on 5/6/11 and party and enjoy your leisure time in the most public way possible: drink, dance, and be merry in the parks, beaches, pubs, and streets. Let your joy be seen and heard!
