Things Are Tough All Over
Imagine if you will, you’re a dense cloud of gas and dust (some of us will have to use more imagination here than others). You’re floating around the Carina Nebula. You're minding your own business and doing your job exactly as the immutable laws of the Universe dictate.
Then .... BAM! Through absolutely no fault of your own, you’re given two weeks notice (in Universal terms, a few million years) and you’re scheduled for elimination. All because you just happen to drift too close (8,000 light years) to some new stars, whose intense light is already in the process of undermining you completely.
How do you react? Hopefully with more dignity than the Disappearing Clouds of Carina. As captured by the Hubble Space Telescope, here’s an example of how not to assure yourself a good recommendation from your old employer.
