What a jerk. Eff him in the eye!
Happy b-day K-Bug!
On the roommates thing, yes indeed normal. GF and I do spend pretty much all of our evening time together (usually watching a movie) and go to bed at the same time, but we just mesh that way. It wouldn't bother me if she wanted to do something else occasionally, but I like it just fine as is, too. Going from a full to a queen-sized bed helped in the snuggle/space dept. Plenty of room.
My effin mouth still hurts. I took a Vicodin last night and it really did help. I'm starting today with Motrin and if I'm still in pain, I'll switch to the V.
And, yes, MM, that commercial is funnier than shit. Although I of course always thought the Pilgrim was a Puritan
Er...Sean brought that up. I offered to kill Aimee's boss.
I can see where the confusion comes from.
Oh, sorry! Please to commence with the boss-killing.
Sean, YES. So great. One of the few ads where you watch it and think, "God, those must have been some
fun
auditions!"
If you haven't already sent a letter of inquiry to that other company that wanted you so badly last year, DO IT.
I did and they never responded. Oh look! A smoldering bridge.
He sends letters because he lost a big unemployment case last year due to his lack of documentation. And also because he's very non-confrontational - good or bad.
I'll admit, there *are* issues, but a lot of them have to do with him asking me to do shit that ISN'T MY JOB. Does he want me to work on the books or get bids for window cleaning? Does he want me to work on taxes with the accountants or does he want me to get utilities turned on and chase the companies around? Does he want me to chase all tenenats down like an asshole, or does he want me to do it in a way that will get him acutally paid?
The thing is, there was a pretty big fuck up on my part yesterday - I didn't notarize something correctly for his other company (the one he has made patently clear that I do NOT work for) which resulted in him losing a $46k job. I have a feeling that he wrote that letter about the piddling bullshit for my company since he can't write me up for something to do with the one I don't work for.
Either and all ways, it's bullshit and he and I are having a brutally honest chat today that I will discuss from the LETTER I WRITE BACK. And will place in my own damn file since I keep it.
Ugh. Sorry to hear about the shittiness, Aims.
Oh, Aimee. That really is shitty. I'm so sorry.
he'll probably back down and make unspecific grumpy noises and do nothing if you stand up to him,
Signs of this already showing. When I said, "You mean about that letter you sent me?" I was glaring at him in
that
face. honey - you know the one. And when I told him we would talk about it later, think about the tone of voice your parental figure would get - very intentional, very calm, and very very cold. That's the one I used and I swear - he shuddered and shrank into his chair.
Aimee, WTF??? If he "needs more and needs it now," then tell him that YOU need him to be very very VERY specific as to what he needs so that you can provide it. You can't do the job he wants you to do if you don't *know* what he wants.
Put the burden on him.
I was glaring at him in that face. honey - you know the one.
Man, I just flinched sitting here at my desk.
I predict this will end in blood.
