I think the CEO firing you meant that he wasn't bluffing.

He first lade a threat. Then I called his bluff and then he pushed through.

In that way I got my full year off.

The stupid thing was that I was fired for reading a newspaper. I didn't take it up to court because I knew I was getting a full years pay if they fired me that way.

How do you get a full-year's pay after getting fired?

In Canada. If I get canned my severance is 1.5 years salary. (Based on length of emplyment.) It's even better in Europe. It's what happens when a country doesn't flipflop between two right wing parties and actually has a party focused on the working class.
