Going back for the colour in December....
ladycroft - 10/17/12 10:28
it's going to look amazing in colour!
mrmike - 10/14/12 12:38
Very cool
paul - 10/14/12 11:46
That's freaking awesome. I don't know how I missed this earlier. I keep wanting a tattoo but I don't know what I would commit to and I'm sure I'd be allergic to the dye or something.
metalpeter - 10/06/12 11:30
that does look pretty good
heidi - 10/04/12 11:46
That's really nice! Looking forward to seeing the color!

work shit
Well seems that any happiness I may have had about my job is short lived. While at a coworkers retirement party I got a call saying that the position I was given is being taken from me as is my vacation and I am to report to some shithole that can't keep staff way the fuck out in batavia.


leetee - 09/21/12 23:15
Thanks, (e:Matthew). It will work out for the best somehow. In the meantime, it looks as though i will be job hunting.....
matthew - 09/21/12 16:30
Ugh. I hope it all works out for the best.
leetee - 09/20/12 15:33
Thanks, (e:Paul), it sure is.

(e:Janelle) -- yes, they can. I have spoken to my union. They say, to paraphrase, "well, you still have a job, suck it up and stop complaining".

I think my next move is to quit. Having more seniority is supposed to give me more security, but it isn't working out that way.
paul - 09/20/12 15:06
What a nightmare.
janelle - 09/20/12 12:37
Is this a situation where you can appeal through the Union? Can they really just jerk you around like that?

Human Nature
Recently I have been fighting for my rights to gain a permanent spot for myself at work. I was displaced because I was assaulted at my last site.

I found out that my persistence has paid off. I was awarded a placement at a house that's got a good reputation stable staffing and a reasonable director.

I was thrilled. I excitedly published on facebook and told my co-workers.

The backlash is awful. People have been downright nasty to me.

The vibe at this house has gone from pleasant and welcoming to cold and resentful.

I feel hurt. I don't understand why people are unable to be happy for me.

metalpeter - 09/21/12 17:19
I get that it wasn't you that had the bad behavior... That being said I don't think everyone there sees it that way.. I'm sure the boss who caused it blamed you.. And I'm sure if your place is like most stories travel.. I think they think that you being attacked was your fault hence why they don't want you there....
leetee - 09/19/12 21:04
Metalpeter it was not me who had "bad behavior" at another house. I was assault and stabbed. After that I was on light djuty and moved to another house.
metalpeter - 09/16/12 10:55
I'm not saying I agree but I'll try to give it from their view or Possible view.. They Have this good house and here comes someone from that bad house who now gets rewarded for bad Behavior (Yours) With Full time... Aka they might get less hours or less OT.. Now granted it isn't your fault you where attacked it was your bosses or what ever is = to that term.. But see news travels and it isn't from your perspective that it traveled... Also maybe the facebook post was frowned on..Maybe that stuff is supposed to stay at work ? Again it is to bad ... But if you where in a great house and you got someone who was thought of as a trouble maker you would ask and try to be their best friend HA, but most wouldn't.... I'm not saying I'm right but just kinda a guess....
janelle - 09/15/12 14:12
I don't know if it's something about the DD field, but co-workers can be the worst! I have found it easier to just not talk to much to co-workers at work.
paul - 09/15/12 09:03
Congrats on the permanent position sorry it turned out badly with the people.
