We have a winner for the creepiest thread of the day! ... month .... year ... /8/4c/332552/1.html (ymmv, of course) . I never thought that something posted in an iternet forum would ever make me physically ill, but reading that made me sick. Once the shock subsided, it took several tries to respond in anything resembling a civil manner. What a horrible idea! _____________________

Has anyone ever heard of Tranquility Garden?
I was looking for a place to go tonight and stumbled on to this place. It is gorgeous! If you have not been, you really owe it to yourself to see this place. |

@ Rhonda and Clover - nice to see you back!
@ Elora - wow, sorry you have such a mess to deal with! I hope you're documenting everything. I never thought that something posted in an iternet forum would ever make me physically ill, but reading that made me sick. Once the shock subsided, it took several tries to respond in anything resembling a civil manner. What a horrible idea! Your reply was well put. It must have been difficult to say. . _____________________

/me looks at the odometer: three zeroes approaching. do you know what I'm doing tonight in just another hour? it involves wax and a noise like ripping. but no screaming. at least it shouldn't. maybe some mild imprecations. I'm overdue. . I'd like to talk to you about this. Seriously! I've always wondered. _____________________

@ Rhonda and Clover - nice to see you back! @ Elora - wow, sorry you have such a mess to deal with! I hope you're documenting everything. Your reply was well put. It must have been difficult to say. . It was a lot less "colorful" than what I wanted to say, that's for sure. _____________________

/drags weary self into Thread to say hello to everyone. OMG the woman I replaced was such a fuckup. First, it appears to me and the accountant she most likely was robbing petty cash blind for the past couple of years. She left NO receipts for 2009, at all for me. Claims it would better for me to "start fresh", she "couldn't find them", etc. Left me a journal with bogus entries; very generic with nothing to back it up. She was taking out like $800 a week from the bank and NOBODY was questioning her at all! The partners never looked at the books it seems, and when the accountant would question her she always had some excuse why she could not accommodate him for this particular thing. He got to a point where he just stopped asking. $30,000 worth of petty cash last year, some was legit but I'd say a good portion is a mystery and this year, the same. Plus, talk about sloppy bookkeeping in general. It's an embarrassment. I've already been on the phone with several clients having to apologize for her errors and try and figure out ways to rectify them. Missing deposits, doubled entries, invoices not recorded, fudging of numbers, on and on. I tried to talk to the powers that be but they do NOT want to know about it as she was their "golden" girl in many ways as far as how she related to the office staff. They just want things fixed, taken care of and continue to keep their heads under the blankets all warm and cozy trusting the accountant and I to make it nice and happy again. Ugh. So, in some ways it's been rather stressful as she left me betwen a rock and a hard place in many ways and, it's all on my shoulders to figure it out on my own and take care of it. On the other hand, I do like the place on the whole. The staff are wonderful people and for the most part, I'm left alone by the principals to do my thing. I don't need a lot of direction normally, so once I settle in this will be a decent situation for me. Plus, I've now seen all of the financials and they are doing quite well and are exceedingly generous to the employees come the holidays. Not too much to complain about other than the current state of affairs which will work themselves out in due time. Other than that - I have no time for SL lately at all. I hope that changes soon All is else is pretty good and if I could only make a concrete decision where Ghosty and I should go for our extended Xmas holiday (I have 11 days off, plus will be eligible for vacation time by then if I choose to take some), things would really be set  /me waves to Elora. HOLY COW!!!!!! I'm so glad you're able to make heads or tails of her messed up stuff. Wow...thievery. Glad you're doing OK...Can't wait to catch up! _____________________
