Making a long story short: 9 month's ago my boss's boss asked for
1 out of 5 [6, if you include the boss] names to be fired. He argued
that he couldn't give one name. When I knew about that, I became
very upset that he hadn't given _my_ name, so I've been busy
in these 9 months convincing him that I _wanted_ to be fired.

Yep, I probably can find a job designing Web Sites to
sell illegal drugs online, or to take profit out of
Nigerian Scams. Otherwise I don't see how I can get
decently paid for piloting spaceships when the only
employer here in Brazil is a subsidiary of Worldcom :-/
