I'm not sure if I should be relieved or pissed off.

try relieving yourself on all of that new paperwork and pissing your co-workers off instead.

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Dude, write a puff piece on Elijah Dukes, what a great guy he is, and how great Rigglemann is and send that with your stuff - guaranteed hire.

im pretty sure everyone wants the writer to rip of the nats for being a complete and total joke. im not even sure what the point in sending an email is, so many good and qualified writers are out of work and will jump at this. im 6 months out of college.

Good and qualified = high salary demands

Young e-mail spam writer fresh outta Temple = cheap

Okay...now the boss has decided to change my title, take away all the creative tasks I was involved in, and give me all kinds of mindless, menial work that nobody else wants to do. I suggested that he lay me off...but he refused. So basically my choice is to take it or leave it. Do the job or quit. I certainly can't get immediate work elsewhere, so I'm forced to stick around and eat shtein while I look for an acceptable way out.

Go find a new job with solid opportunity, then return the favor by telling him at 4:45 on a Friday that you just worked your last day.  When he asks about two-weeks notice, tell him that you asking to be laid off should have provided plenty of advance notice.
The drawback to marital longevity is your wife always knows when you're really interested in her and when you're just trying to bury it.

I'll definitely work on that. Of course, the "new job with solid opportunity" thing is kind of like chasing unicorns these days.
