If you know who can manage to totally ignore/not quote/respond to me the same way I ignore/don't quote/respond to him - perhaps I'll stay. I have completely stayed away from him for months, and I'd appreciate the same consideration in return. We'll see how that goes.

i'll run a block for ya! :p

Thanks for taking the time to call Mo - my boss was practically standing right over me when you did :eek: I'll try and give you a buzz back this evening, hopefully. Last night by the time G and I both got home, we were so wiped out and now we're in this new getting used to us both working mode thing too lol. It does really stink that it wound up this way - after 20 years I can deal with being let go and all, I understand things happen but not at least getting the severence pay really is a kicker.

And get this, OMG I forgot! To add insult to injury? Yesterday morning, before they had a chance to tell me? One of our engineers, that I'm good friends with? Calls up first thing in the morning and opens his trap and says to me "Oh? You're still there?" I'm like..."what do you mean I'm still here?" He says "my dad (father son team) said you were not working there anymore". I'm like "that's news to me!"

So, then I knew I was being let go! And I had to sit on pins and needles the whole day until the bosses called me into the conference room after lunch to finally talk to me! Can you imagine? FFS.



Elora,

Condolences on being laid off... What is with that guy? You'd think he'd be smart enough to keep his mouth shut once he discovered you were there! some people!

If the job market wasn't so shaky right now, I'd say, you're probably better off. And, you know, it may just turn out that way! I'm going to keep good thoughts that a great job is waiting for you.

Sooo, I was watching American Idol tonight (yes yes, make fun of me) when I saw a very odd bald guy in a suit sitting in the audience, just sitting quietly and staring at nothing.
Weird, I thought. He was gone about halfway through the show.

Then I got on the phone for a while and just left the show "Fringe" on, which I usually don't watch. Well, there was the bald guy.

Coincidence? Crossover in a desperate ratings grab by Fox? Too much television on a full stomach? Should I just stick to "House"?

It's recorded and waiting for the spousal unit to get home. I just watched last week's episode which apparently I slept tight through the first time. :confused:

LOL! I remember entertaining the swim coaches during my swimming lessons by swimming like him. :D


Yes. I was on Swim Team & Dive Team. But there comes a time when a guy realizes Speedo's are NOT for him :)

Had I continued past the age of 16 I would've gotten my lifeguard certifications.

And Tod, getting drunk alone and angry isn't really going to help you cope.
Tod, take no notice of any of the advice the "females" here are offering. They are all biased.
