well I got scolded today by a 3 or 4 year old child. while waiting for the tram, unbeknown to me, the little munchkin found shade from the sun in my shadow. as I looked where the smurf the tram is, she got upset because she was in the sun again. the mother was apologising, I was laughing and the munchkin was standing her ground

i got canned a few weeks in. asking a sensible question was apparently a big no no. the funny part is that if I didn't get canned on monday, I would've gotten on friday that same week. there was an issue my former boss has been trying to figure out a solution to for about 2 years. i talked some of the details over with the other staff and had a solution in 4 hours. the guy was so steamed about it that he gave me paid time off while i was on my 2 weeks notice just so that he wouldn't have to deal with me

Just seeing about the job as well ::) Congrats :cheers: So how is it going?

i got canned a few weeks in. asking a sensible question was apparently a big no no. the funny part is that if I didn't get canned on monday, I would've gotten on friday that same week. there was an issue my former boss has been trying to figure out a solution to for about 2 years. i talked some of the details over with the other staff and had a solution in 4 hours. the guy was so steamed about it that he gave me paid time off while i was on my 2 weeks notice just so that he wouldn't have to deal with me

Oh man....... :facepalm: Sucks, sorry to hear.

Ran into an old colleague today, one of the hardest working people I've ever known, but not a self-promoter.  After 11 years at his previous job he got worked out by a new boss and his new buddies.  >:(
What makes me so angry is I heard from other acquaintances that Leon never changed from his hard-working ways, never rested on his laurels after putting a lot in order after he started.  To add insult to injury, he's a very friendly and pleasant guy.....

I'm so sick of work politics and backstabbing.....I can only fix stuff, can't play those games  :facepalm:

At this point only thing I can say is that it happens. Not a whole lot that can be done about it without someone landing in jail

There's a saying that people generally don't leave a job because of the job; they leave because of their manager.

only thing that is worrisome in all of that is the fact that i'm a coordinator for volunteers and when one looks at my degree it is more geared towards the managerial part of IT. so I gotta wonder if I'm being the same type of smurf
