("frown" didn't seem adequate)
I had to put my sweet black dog to sleep yesterday... knew it was coming-- she was 14, & had been treated for lymphoma for the past several months-- but it just never gets any easier. We were friends a long damn time, and I miss her very much. Pics & FB eulogy here: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.179450365448242.45816.100001498387941.
Many of the 2-legged creatures in my3-D world fail to understand the sadness magnitude of this event... like, "that's too bad, oh well she was old"... then I kick them in the shins/ balls, and go back to bed.
Cyberhugs needed.
for going to HR about this... on occasion i took the low road and snapped back via email... i had already admitted this to HR, i was never the first to spew malicious things, i would just fire back on occasion :( the "investigation" will be over monday supposedly... went home crying again today... my boss acted like she had no clue this was going on which really pissed me off cause i went to her time and again (not documented though) and she always said "ignore it"... i'm pretty depressed right now :(
ETA: ya my boss was acting pissed in the meeting with the HR manager for me "not telling her about this"... fuck my life
jeez, amy. that's shitty. <3 i hope everything turns out ok

Go back to HR and say that you feel this write up is in retaliation for going to speak with them.

i know, the few people i still have in my life (i am really pushing most people away nowadays) call bullshit and say i should seriously get a lawyer... fml... this is all such a guilt trip, i've been painted to be this poster child "problem" and i am trying to claw my way out of it but there is just so much bs around me it is impossible... i'm small so i suppose i'm the easiest to chuck under the bus :/
Get some legal help, Amy. They are counting on you running scared and backing down. That's how this guy rolls. And the boss woman is probably afraid of him too, because either he has some hold on her or she just wants to keep her own job, and he or some of those above her have convinced her to turn a blind eye or else.
Non Iligitimi Vencerat!!-- Don't let the bastards win.
I am quite sure that these days in the US legislation is on your side. Fight back! If you don't you're just allowing yourself to be f*d for free--emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
On no account roll over!!
i really want to thank you ladies for your kind words, i've had an awful week... i'll keep u updated, have two job interviews monday... ughhh
Good luck with everything, Amy.
Sometimes people will shit on You when You stand Your ground and do the right thing... it's so much easier to back down, but resisting that urge will always make You a stronger person.

2nd this! Bullies should never be rewarded-- don't let 'em steamroll you... glad you've got other interviews lined up-- I know you'll be glad to be outta that place! (... but don't let the bastards push you around, til then!)
my friend who helped me out with all my eating problems is now going through it herself. i'm glad that i can be here for her, and that she's actually willing to talk to me about it, but i feel soooo bad that this is happening to her. it's not fair. she's gorgeous, kind, smart, everything. i wish she wasn't in so much pain.
you are a good friend Alison, i know that you will be an incredible support to her. <3
amy i wish you the best in all thats going on.

thank you! i don't understand why i keep getting shit on when i'm already at rock bottom... hopefully something good comes from all of this :/
Amy - I know you're going to be awesome and that you're going to rock those interviews tomorrow. Just sayin'. :)
My reason to cry like a baby? Music. Music just gets me. It re-centers me and moves me forward.

thanks!
(((Amy))) I'm sorry you're going through such a difficult time. Definitely stand your ground. I've bee thrown under the perverbial bus many times, but keep peeling myself off the pavement. You have so many people who love you and are in your corner, including me! It may not seem like it, but I've learned over the years that God often uses our worst times for His glory. I will keep you in my prayers. Good luck with your interviews, but anyone would be lucky to have you on their team!! :)
My reason to cry is that we had to put one of our kitties down today. Zuma was such a love and my daughter's best friend. It was so unexpected and has left us all emotional wrecks. It's left us broken hearted... We miss him sooooooo much!! :'(
I'm sorry, abrimmer. It's always hard, but unexpected is extra hard. Do you have a picture of Zuma we can see?
I'm so sorry for your loss abrimmer!!

Oh, honey, I have been there. I had to do this for my beloved Saul after 10 years together. But he was old and sick and it was better than making him suffer through treatment. Sometimes peace is the best gift you can give. But that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt.
A pet can rip your heart right out of your chest without even leaving a mark. And what's worse is when you are surrounded by people who don't get it.
We do, though. Love you.
