RkyMtnHigh 0 #1 July 29, 2005 My heart is overflowing with love and support for someone who needs some lovin, support, or just a hug. If you're having a tough time personally or professionally...just know you are not alone...my heart is abundant with love and support...close your eyes and when you feel the goosebumps...know that it's my warmth of comfort and big hugs of support....but it isn't just me..."we" are all here for you and love you unconditionally. Today is the first day of the rest of your life...It's all going to get better from here. I WILL promise you that much (I don't know who this post is for...but it my heart made it important to post it regardless)As some of you know, I read tarot cards, and I dont know who, but one of our .commers is really struggling and they need our support right now and is in a lot of emotional pain...they are humble and are afraid to reach out...but it's okay...we're still here. We love our fellow jumper and we are here for them. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lick ya back Rev...I miss those dayz when we licked a lot but this is actually sad...one of our .commers is really mourning. I don't know who he/she is..but it's really a tough time..I just found it out when I did a reading with my cards....and I became saddened myself. If they are near me in FL, I would love to give him/her a loving hug of support/comfort right now. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I got fired from my job Wednesday, 2 days ago. I was not happy there. Have not been happy for a few years. Supervisor was a prick. I mean a real hard-on prick. Nit-picking sonofabitch would write people up for the smallest things. If he makes a bad decision that costs the company on a project, the blame goes totally on the employee working under him on that project. I'm not going to list everything wrong with that guy or this thread will get tooo long. Things came to a head Wednesday when it was time for my performance evaluation with the manager (my supervisor's boss). My review was less than glowing, and the manager questioned whether I should stay or go. I was given the rest of the day to think about it. So 3 years of frustration started welling up, and I decided enough was enough, and wrote an email to the manager totally ripping my supervisor's ass. In some way, I knew I'd had enough and it was time to move on, but I wasn't going to do it without getting this shit off my chest. So, at the end of the day, I was fired. Next morning, I find some 10 emails at home from co-workers asking "WHAT HAPPENED". Sure enough, they all hate that same supervisor and are pissed off at him. He's driven off several good employees in the past who couldn't take the way he manages. I don't know what I'm going to do next, but I'm not going to do any more full-time CAD/project management jobs for a while. I'll try something totally different. Just need some time to figure things out. With a mortgage and bills to pay, and a baby on the way (yeah! gonna be a daddy!), money would normally be the main issue, but it's not. I have plenty of emergency funds to draw on if needed to stay afloat. The main thing is doing something that makes me happy, for my sake, my wife's sake and the unborn baby's sake. That is all that matters. There's no need to be coming home depressed every day when there's a wife and kid eagerly awaiting me and trying to pick me up. They deserve a happy husband and daddy.
