I was totally embarrassed, but figured that waiting for a reply text and her getting her ass to the office would just prolong it, and started the interview myself so as not to waste his or my time. I even delayed the interview with touring him through our art exhibit and other chit chat. Thank god he was still interested by the end of it.
She's on vacation again next week (how does someone on a second probation manage to accrue vacation days, and be allowed to take almost three weeks in one month heading into our busy season?). Hopefully the ED will gave found a way to fire her by then.

Today was... not easy. This evening was a sort of wake for my boss (who passed away Sunday) which was both good and rough. I held it together until I walked out the door into the snow pelting my face and ended up having an ugly cry in the car before driving home.
oh man aurelia. i am so sorry.
Drat! I was all excited coming in, to tell my boss I had figured out a crazy figure we included in a document was just missing a zero. Yeah, no -- she pointed out that I was multiplying the wrong two numbers in my head. Ah well. It would be nice if any of the hundred people who read and edited this thing had reviewed the facts we were asserting!
