Yes, I would like some cheese with my whine

redemptionsongs I am sorry I haven't gotten the money to you for that camera yet. If you have another buyer or need the money now, please don't wait on me. I appreciate the offer, but I don't know when I'll be able to get it.

I am so scared for my job right now. There have been a lot of closed door meetings, visits from corporate, job assessments, lots of budget and commission numbers being thrown around, etc.

My boss has lost her mind or else is schizophrenic or just plain batshit crazy. I don't believe anything she says anymore. I think she is schmoozing whomever it takes to keep her job and if she has to cut a few people loose to do it, she won't miss a beat.

I seriously considered job hunting, but the job market here is not good now. And, I'm scared of going somewhere else, losing all of my seniority and then getting let go as low man on the totem pole. I've decided, no matter how bad it gets, I'm waiting it out. I've put a lot of time and hard work, earned my license, and for once in my life I have a job goal (or 5 year plan).

If they want me out, they'll have to fire me or let me go. If I'm fired I can get unemployment (which is something I have never done since I have never been unemployed for more than 3 weeks since I was 16). I have paid into that fund for 22 years and seen people like my slacker baby daddy drain it almost dry. Ok, so my plan is contingent on unemployment not being bankrupt in the next few years.

If I'm let go, there are some nice severance packages available that could get me by until I found something else.

Enough about work.

There is more in my head, some good, some bad, some weird. But I must sleep. Damn you internet! Sucking my sleep away ....
