I will not have an opportunity to apologize to the QA guys
who were assessing my Customer Service cases
giving me lousy scores and putting my job at risk
this last year and a half.
I’ve been judging them for being so one-dimensional
in their thinking
and not often understanding the breadth of my logic.

Now that I’ve been fired
I will never have the chance to let them know
that I’m sorry for not giving them the benefit of the doubt.

I’ll never have the opportunity to speak to them again
so I won’t be able to make up
my prejudicial thinking to those guys
who kept my employment in danger
and left me anxious for half my tenure
at the company I just left.

This bothers me
but not enough
to seek a solution
to the problem at hand.
