And I quote “I’m going to do you a favor. You’re just too smart. I’m letting you go.” This was like the 3rd day.

I needed a job, any job, so I took a position below my experience level at the time. I wasn’t very happy about it. Like I said, I needed the job.

"I'm doing you a favor" - The person not at all doing you a favor

Being "let go" looks not so great to future emplorers as well. What the fuck kinda favor did he think that is??
