I wished I could tell my previous supervisor something. They abuse you until you stick up for yourself. He called me at 5:30 PM when I was off duty, to tell me that I wasn't getting a raise. He had all day to do this and he wimped out. I was so mad that I didn't want to say anything so I just hung up on him.

If I followed my heart I would have told him "I quit", right then and there as he had nobody to replace me. He would have been beside himself and I probably would have gotten a raise. I like to think it would have been funny, as he would be calling me all night and asking if I was going in the next day and my response would have been "I quit and it's your problem now". I would have frusted the heck out of him. They throw around nickels like manhole covers. LOL

As The Godfather wisdom says, "You can act like a man". It was a classless way in which he handled it. Then they wonder why people quit like they don't realize people have a life.

Onto to happy thoughts!!!
