Yardies at Home and a Farrin (part14)

[Forever Young 1]

I have no more tears to cry this morning. On Friday, a co-worker told me that she is probably going to get fired today. She met with her boss's boss on Friday. He told her that her work was crappy and she was not performing at the level that they needed her to. The part that had me so down and sad, was that this was never told to her by her boss. She has been here for 18 months and you mean to tell me all of a sudden her work is #######. Anyways, she saved the company over $100K for a mistake she found. They don't want to discuss that. She is a professional with over 6 years of experience and they had her doing administrative assistant duties. She was so insulted because she had been given the title of Supervisor but she was doing clerical work. Now, I'm an auditor here and I pretty get to review the work of the accounting staff as well. I had absolutely no problems with her work. She was the most organized and knowledgeable of the information. I was so hurt because I didn't see where her work was #######. So she went to her managers and asked...Why hasn't this been told to me? That my work was not up to PAR!!!!! She told me that the manager looked at her and became red and tears began to well of in his eyes. She had to leave the room so that he can wipe his eyes. The other manager said...I had no problems with your work...must be another manager.

I just don't understand why or how people can treat people this way. They could've fired her at any time. But now that she began to question why was she getting treated that way, it became a big mess. I'm using VJ to vent right now. I'm so hurt but I just have to keep her and her family in the prayers. And when I even think to complain about my job, give thanks to God for having one. It's not even my battle...but I just feel so hurt for the treatment that she has received. Maybe God...I mean..I KNOW God has a plan and maybe this was not it.

Thanks for letting me vent.

Afternoon Ladies,

KK, that just plain ole SUCKS!!! Unfortunately, ther is no loyalty or ethics in the workplace these days. Just remember G-d NEVER closes a door without opening a window! He didn't want her there, KK! Her talents were being wasted!! Not to worry he will now put her where he needs her now!! She and you are in my prayers...it's so nice to know that their are still people that care about others out there! Unfortunately, that is becoming a rarity these days also!

Hang in there!

Bless-ed,

Gill

Congrats Jgay!! Glad to hear things are moving along. A job is a job and it's a start in the right direction. And since he is working nights it sounds like the issue of hanging out will disappear as well!

Yes, rarely but it happens. Most still get away with murder. One of my co-workers was home 3 days last week because she didn't have money to get to work...she needed it for the weekend . One hasn't stepped foot in this office in a year....working from work...yeah right. Another is off 4 months to take care of your husband who is recovering from back surgery...haven't seen one doctor's note yet I'm so frustrated.

Wow!! How do I get me one of those jobs....

I'm home by myself. Right now, the most painful thing is my right hand. They couldn't find a vein and seemed to wiggle the needle all in that hand. It was VERY painful. But then they switched to the left hand and it was fine. When they woke me up afterwards, the only pain I felt was in my right hand. Mouth still numb, so I can't speak clearly. I didn't know in advance that I could drink liquids only for 2 days. I had a whole menu planned with creamy spinach soup & protein shakes with strawberries blended in. They said no spinach in the soup and no strawberries in the protein shake (cause of the seeds).

I look hideous with this contraption around my face. I'll probably post a picture on Facebook.

On a positive note, I hope to lose a couple of lbs from this experience!

Glad everything went okay Nat! Get some rest so you're body can start healing.

[DaDa 1]

Nat that was fast!!! I see your back on VJ with your hand hurting and all. LOL

Jgay your having a girl umm mi like the name Dara is has a ring ta it....lol Well put it like this with the late hours hubby wont be able to hang out as much so that is one good thing right? It’s a start and I'm sure from here on out things will get better.

Sus... reading your post earlier really struck me on a personal level. No need for me to go into details, but know that I'm praying for your situation.

Girl why Roc tell me yesterday em told his landlord ta cut his cable cut off.. He said he just doesn’t see the sense in paying fi it when he’s never there or most of the channels don't come in or nothing is on. He said all that is ever on is some sponge bob brick pants and he doesn’t watch that.. Girl I lol but in my head I'm like o.k. so when I come I'm supposed to do what? I’m one of them people that sleeps with the tv on and I always wake so early before him because my body is on my work schedule that normally to pass the time I'll turn on the t.v. I can just picture myself laying or sitting there like .

Even though in America, I wouldn't think to not watch one of my many shows, when I'm in Jamaica, I can easily go without tv. So much other stuff to do there...

Nat i had my wisdom teeth pulled..and girl I didn't know my left hand from my right..so i hope someone is with u..

Thanks Gill. That is so true. She has been speaking with her lawyer to see if there is anything that can be done.
