Not a problem dumping. Better to get it off your chest than to hold it in.

Sorry to hear about your week. I have days, weeks, and months like that. I work overtime all the time. If I do not do it, it will not get done.

I understand wanting to tell everyone to go screw themselves. I have thought about that.

As for the asshole boss, well I am the boss. And I have been called an asshole many a time. Some of the time it is true, and others it is not.

What do you plan on doing on your vacation? Anything fun?

i am sure you are a nice guy as far as a boss is concerned, you are at least american! my boss is not and refuses to take any american customs. he does not even speak clear english (and don't get me started on his writing). he is beyond cheap and thinks a bandaid works better then a cast to fix anything broken. i sit and watch buildings falling apart and he does not care. if i do my job he is looking over my shoulder to make sure i don't spend to much money. if it looks good when it is finished then i HAD to spend to much and he wants a full accounting.............and i could go on...........

as for the vacation, yes i had planned a trip but that is shot now. looks like the best i will get is an over night in KC with my kids...........*sigh*

i like my job and most of the people who work there. i am good at what i do and i understand budgets. i just don't like the fact my boss has no idea what i am doing and does not care to know. if i am not sitting in my chair looking at my computer screen all day (including lunch) then i can not possibly be working, so he needs to give me more to do. right now i am so fricken busy with the work HE thinks i need to do, the work I DO need to do and the work that OTHERS think i need to do................i don't know what to do first............:D how is that for confusing!!!!!

Sounds typical. Most people have no idea of what the people working for them do. And then they want to meddle in what they are doing. I bet he does not want to hire anyone to help you, as you have to much time on your hands now.

I do not do that. I tell them what I want, and then I get out of their way to let them do it. Yes, I do watch how much money is being spent. However, if they can justifiy it, I let them alone.

There are a lot of fun things to do in KC. See a Royals game (they will lose though). Go to Worlds of Fun, all sorts of things. I am sur eyou and your family will enjoy yourselves in whatever you do.

Keep smiling, it makes them wonder what you are up to.

I agree with going just to enjoy yourself. I do not get to go to the Royals games much, but I do go to the Wranglers (Royals AA Wichita) games a lot.

There is nothing wrong with keeping them guessing. I heard somewhere that it takes less muscles to smile than it does to frown.

Maybe that is why I try to smile all the time. I do not always succeed, but I try.

I hope you are enjoying your weekend.

What lake did you go to? Glad you enjoyed yourself.

Mine was wonderful. I took the new girlfriend to a Wranglers game (she likes them). We took the RV to El Dorado lake and spent the weekend there. It was a very enjoyable weekend.

I did not realized how lonely I actually was until I met her. Now I know what I was missing.

I did not even answer the phone when work tried to get ahold of me. Was that bad or what? Been a long time since I have done that.
 
Been here a few weeks.

But, I just found you guys and gals. Hello from Johnson County.

Well, when there was no reason to go home, except to sleep. It was easy to get wrapped up in work and nothing but work.

Now, I intend to enjoy what I have found.

Yes it is. Especially when it hits you upside the head when you are not expecting it. That is what happened with the new girlfriend. Out of the blue thing. :)
