Joseph:
Sorry sorry sorry but this is going to be an unhappy post. If you want to read happy things skip it.
One of my best friends jumped off a bridge Thursday. I'm on the earliest flight to Vancouver tomorrow. I can't stop thinking about it and I feel gutted. The hold music from Air Canada is not helping. Probably won't be online much for a bit.
Barmymoo:
Joseph, I am so sorry to hear that. My prayers are with you and your friend's family and friends.
Kat (who is not, on second glance, Stephen... grr avatars), I don't actually have a contract. They can do anything they like. They could decide to stop paying me altogether, although in that situation I would just leave. I fully agree that by making me leave they are not paying me, and that they should be paying for me to stay elsewhere. But I am too much of a wuss to agree with you when she is standing there talking to me. Somehow this lady brings out the wuss in me.
I think the problem is that I have had too many conversations where what I thought was an innocuous remark caused her a huge amount of offence, so now I am tiptoing on ice trying to avoid offence. I know that telling her she is acting unreasonably will offend her hugely (because she has this image of herself as a wonderful, amazing, brilliant, incredibly generous employer, which sometimes she can be but certainly not all the time) so I do not want to do that.
Gemmwah:
My god, man I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope you hold up okay, my thoughts are with you and everyone affected.
Metope:
I'm so sorry, Joseph :(
Ptommydski:
Sorry to hear that, man. Our thoughts go out to you, your friends and family.
