major bummer. that really bites. sorry to hear about this, m.

i'll bet she regrets how she handled this. certainly her "plans" backfired.

Threats are all some people have. I've never responded very well to that sort either.

Best of luck to you, Bornieo. You know your worth. She can't touch that.

RStar · 10-21-2006, 09:07 AM

Sheesh, some people just don't get it! Makes you want to knock on their head and say "Hello! McFly! Anyone home??"

Borneo - you did the right thing. No need to put yourself in a position where someone manages you through bullying.

Kevy Baby · 10-21-2006, 10:04 AM

I say congratulations Mark! You stood up for yourself and made the right choice. Sure, it can be disappointing to lose a couple of perks, but more importantly, you stood up for what you (rightly) believed was the right thing to do.

Kudos!

Thanks folks, that's sweet of you all to say. I appreciate it!

It is sure that she didn't know what the heck she was doing. I am proud of you for taking the stance you did and glad that you could.

I agree, if she were smart she would have asked you to help train someone else and kept you on even that one day since you have the knowledge that they don't.

Overheard from a woman sitting behind me while waiting for my flight:

"I don't go for the heart, I go for the throat - the juggular - it bleeds out faster"

Bornieo, you could always call the THX TAP (Theatrical Alignment Program) on her - they don't take well to theaters claiming THX certification that aren't up to THX standards.

I had a really bad day yesterday. I don't know why I let his actions affect me so much. I know he doesn't care about me anymore, but it is hard to to let go. After finding out that he has plans today with the widow, I decided to take Nickolas to Disneyland. I want to spend time with him today, but I don't feel that I should have to be around her and her kids to do it. I am pretty much ready to go, just waiting for Nick's alarm to go off. My folks are so sick of him and his actions, the holidays ought to be loads of fun (not!). Even yesterday, all I wanted was to go to breakfast with him, but he told me he didn't have time. I came home and went to bed, only to get up and hear from my son that he took her and her kids out to eat. It has been over a year since Jimmy took his life, I know now htat David will never get over it, and that my marrage is over. I am just so tired of crying over what will never be. I have made plans to go to my entire reunion weekend without him.

My mom aksed me last night, "Why Disneyland?" I told her that it is the one place that I can forget about the bad stuff and just enjoy my son and myself, if only for a few hours. I also have to fulfill a promice to Nick, one I made in September. I told him if I didn't take him to the fair this year I would take him to DCA to play the games.

I may end up volunteering to work Saturdays for othe rpeople just to limit my time at home, but that isn't fair to Nick. He has to have 1 parent he can rely on. *sigh* I think it is time to go back on the Prozac.
