Thank You for Firing Me!

Nov. 7, 2008 - PRLog -- CARLSBAD, CA---- Thank You for Firing Me! is comic relief for the working world and those worried about being downsized, laid off, fired, pink slipped or ‘asked to leave’ their job.  
On Saturday, November 22, this wild and hilarious interactive show will be held at the Carlsbad Village Theater in Carlsbad, CA at 8 p.m. and will give audience members the opportunity to vent their bitterness, tell off the boss and get crazy! The show features a line up of side-splitting comedians---some who were former executives and who have made a career out of comedy ---- as well as Malibu Mike, who plays "Dick Tator" the idiot boss in the lobby who will fire theater-goers as they enter the venue. Headlining the show is Vickie Barbolak, a San Diego comedian voted on network TV as America's Funniest Mom. Before she became a success in comedy, Barbolak worked at her family- owned carpet store ---- until her family fired her!
Have you been fired? Do you hate your job? Does your career suck big-time? If you answered yes to any of these questions then it’s time to escape and have your ‘humor revenge.’ Oh, and if you invite your boss, we’ll make sure they are abused and amused.
We have one of the highest rates of unemployment in history. Even the unemployment office is laying off workers!
Thank You for Firing Me! dishes out advice from anti-career experts, Kitty Martini and Candice Reed who warn, “Be extra careful about government jobs. If you try too hard, they'll fire you for working!"
Martini and Reed are authors of the humorous blog: Jobs4yourfiredass and the forthcoming book, "Thank You for Firing Me."
Aside from the laughs on stage, the lobby will feature a job placement table to visit for resources on new and upcoming positions, a CD packed with information about new careers in emerging green industries and other hot markets as well as training programs.
This one-night- only event will change someone's life, possibly jump-start a new career and definitely deliver the laughs.  

Just because Bush is leaving and McCain and Palin are not moving into the White House, doesn't mean you don't need comedy to survive!

The grim news about the economy is nothing to laugh at. Or is it?
