Good Morning and Happy Sunday To All My Stepping Friends!:sohappy:
Liz-so delighted that you had a great birthday celebration with your sisters. Is it back to work tomorrow?
[MENTION=7944]dill[/MENTION]-I love having your here with us.:hug:I really missed your friendship. Is Sid on FOX Business News with Imus, too? I might be able to catch the show before I leave for work tomorrow.
[MENTION=21602]abcowboy[/MENTION]-you asked what I do for a living that I travel so much. Without providing too much detail because I am a really private person, I do business management assessing and consulting. For many years, I did this in the automotive industry and my career took me to Japan, England, France and Spain on a regular basis. The company I was seeing in Alexandria designs and builds ships for the Navy, and interestingly enough, they are competing with Lockheed Martin on a $600M project to upgrade Canada's aging warships.
Glassie-So good to see you...I think it's so cool that you turned your yoga and pilates studio into a nursery, too. How is the thesis coming along? Didn't you have a deadline this month?
Thank you so much for your support in dealing with my client's obnoxious boss. I contacted the Chief Operating Officer on Friday morning and told him that Mike was being verbally and physically abusive, and that I was writing a scathing report about him that the COO had to address by the middle of January. The COO was very apologetic and removed Mike from his role in my assessment. I will never have to deal with him again. YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!! One of his employees told me later in the day that he threw a file folder at the woman who heads the Procurement Dept. She went to HR and he was required to go to anger mgt. counseling. Um, I think he needs to go every day for a year!!!! I am grateful to have this client: They continue to give me more business and everyone except this jerk treats me like gold. This client has also gone through downsizing and a complete management change, and if the former COO, who was a 3-Star Admiral in the Navy, had been there, Mike would have been fired immediately for his inappropriate behavior.
I am off to grocery shop and work out...so big hellos to Nora, Guitarista, [MENTION=11089]techie[/MENTION], Pauly, and anyone I missed...happy AF Sunday!!
