well that just sucks.
I hope and pray that a nicer job comes out of this. You know.. a job that does not come with a
f*cking bitch from hell on a power trip. I am so sorry!
Whoah.
Something better will come from this! You will be happier when you're not working for him! I think Toni is right and the consultant had something to do with this.
