Suspended from work

My mouth always kept me on the edge too.
Maybe it's a good thing and you'll find your dream job.

Aww Poodleone! So sorry to hear this news. There is a silver lining and I wish you luck in finding your dream work!!

How is it that rotten managers can push good people to the breaking point, get rid of them and start all over on the next victim?

Bummer, poodleone. I'll be cheering for you to find something that makes you glad to get up in the morning.

Good luck!! Sometimes bad things happen so good things can take their place.

I totally believe this statement - things happen for a reason!!!

Good luck to you Poodle. It has often amazed me how many people are in management positions who should not be.

What jerks! I know it'll work out better for you in the end but it's stressful for the time being. What kind of work are you looking for, maybe I know someone who knows someone since I have family and friends all over East Texas!

All Poodleone said was that he/she clashed with the manager. Why is everyone so quick to jump on the manager? Poodleone said they didn't have a good feeling about the job from the get go. Good luck on your job search Poodleone.

Well, because we know that Poodleone could never be at fault.

Yeah...that.

Sorry for projecting my own evil manager experiences on this manager here.

DD and bluemtnrunner: you are both too funny. I miss sowal but love getting on here every once in awhile and seeing what other people who love sowal are talking about. How is the weather down there?

Well, yeah, because just by being manangement they are EVIL- all of us hourly folks know this

Really, I just posted here because I was feeling down about the whole CRAZY thing, not because I am placing blame or declining responsibility for my big, grown-up faults in the mess. Thanks to all, especially DD and BbA (but YOU are prejudiced because you are a fellow Texans and just KNOW I am a flawless example of Southern womanhood and could not possibly be at fault). Yep, time to go to bed because it is back to work tomorrow- must put on my big girl panties and face the cold, cruel world (well, actually, it is still in the 80's here but I digress.....)

Poodleone, the $hit has hit the fan in our town in GA. It is so sad. The closings of large facilities here by a major manufacturer was announced last week. The loss of jobs will adversely affect the local economy. Most of those who are under 55 and weren't fired will be moving out of the state to headquarters, so the already sluggish real estate market will be glutted with even more houses for sale. Those 55 and over were offered "voluntary" (LOL) retirement packages in the fall of 2008. It has been devastating, shocking, and unexpected for the local economy.

The tackiest thing is that a high-level manager in the company under 55-yo recently bought his wife a Mercedes E63 AMG. How thoughtless and arrogant was that, given that the walls are crumbling for everyone around him?

So we understand your pain.

That being said, if people keep posting doomsday predictions for the Florida Gulf Coast on SoWal.com, the $hit will hit the fan here, businesses will fail, and jobs will be lost.

Poodleone, you are right, I know you are a flawless example of Texan Southern Womanhood!!!!!!!!!!!!! And since we love so many of the same places, you are clearly fabulous!!!

Quick follow-up: I turned in my two weeks notice today. TAG- I'm it!

You go girl!
