@Wildfire: my husband is ending his long haul trucking. Quitting.
I found him a job here.
I just have one week of hell. My boss called to bitch me out and cut my 2 weeks notice to one week.

@Koah: ...oh... OH! Is that a good thing, that your husband is quitting the long-haul trucking? How long will you guys stay with your mom, then, before moving back to your house?? Or have you made other decisions about your permanent residence? Is hubby excited for the new job?... and (hopefully) spending time with his family regularly?

Why did your boss bitch you out about giving your two week notice??

@Wildfire: my plan is to stick out at mom's until the school year ends. Hopefully send the husband ahead of me, so he can setup a job out there first.
He's breakin a contract, so the fee is ... Substantial. Hopefully worth it, for everyone's mental sakes. My son really misses him.
My boss turned in to a B---- because i put my 2 weeks in during a crappy time to do so. Holidays are busy. She chewed me out. /eye roll.
As mad as i am she felt the need to do that, i am hurt from her call.
I told her Originally i would stay until spring, however better paying jobs is better for me.
the worst part was that she nagged on me about the things i Haven't done. -sigh.

@Koah: Ouch. I hope that the gamble (and, apparently the financial hit) pays off for you all... although it's hard to imagine that having your husband around won't be a positive change. I bet your son misses him a whole lot - not to mention your daughter or that little one of yours :3 I like your plan. I hope it works out well for everyone :3

I'm sorry your boss felt the need to give you grief over changing jobs. It's not a good managerial skill to vent at your underlings... particularly for something as normal as quitting for a better-paying job. It suggests that the boss is overwhelmed and stressed, and if she nagged you about things you didn't do, it also suggests a tendency for drama or dysfunction in that environment that you probably just haven't seen yet, so it's good that you're going (and not only for the raise). I hope the rest of your time "on notice" there goes smoothly.

@Wildfire: you nailed my boss down pretty well.
She is dealing with a lot in her personal life and stressed with work too. I am glad im leaving.

We'll be living in a small space, and my husband has a big personality. So im nervous for that.

Coffee sounds amazing right now.

@Koah: That kind of stress is not productive for anyone, and can be seriously detrimental for a Boss-type. I'm glad you're leaving too :3

LOL -





Coffee does sound amazing, doesn't it? I really should go find some more...

@Wildfire: Right? Like I feel the same about the roadside billboards, maybe I just want to look at the trees as opposed to another ads for a sketchy law firm.

Anyways, how has your week been going?

We got our christmas tree up finally.

@Koah: I'm glad you get a break from your boss' moods today!
LOL- your son really misses his dad! <3



@Rei Ann: me too! I really just don't like anything being pushed on me or in my face like that... I'd much rather look at the trees or the sky without stupid things getting in the way, trying to sell me things I don't want, don't need, and don't care about...
It's actually nice to know I'm not the only one... Must people seen to just accept billboards and ads as normal and expected instead of annoying and pointless...

@Koah: good morning.
Yeah, I bet that you do want coffee right about now! How many more days of double jobs do you have left?

@Wildfire: My husband also think the same way. I just want less ads, not every second of the day has to be a sale chance.

@Rei Ann: exactly. I'm sure you've seen the sci-fi movies where the "customized" ads pop up for the character as they walk down the sidewalk. I feel like we're not far from that, and I really don't want to go there...



@Koah: wow. Please make sure you're taking care of yourself too. At least maybe if hubby is home, he can take care of baby and let you get some sleep?!! Good luck, hon... <3
