Rookie120 0 #1 August 15, 2006 It happened this morning. A guy who I have managed to ignore for the last 2 years fianlly got me on a really bad day and I snapped. Never threw any punches but I am sure he was able to smell what I ate for lunch. Got my first nasty gram in my file with a 3 day suspension w/o pay. Now I need to figure out what to do on my days off. I usually go crazy with only 3 off so 6 is going to be painful. Guess I could get caught up on some SC chat and post whore around the bonfire for a few days.If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Rookie120 0 #5 August 15, 2006 Great idea! I have to watch the cash flow in the next 2 months. I have another job that I will be moving half way across the country to plus a wedding in 6 weeks. I plan on a few jumps but not as many as I would have hoped for.If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rookie120 0 #6 August 15, 2006 QuoteTemper temper there farm boy! What temper? Are you trying to say I have a problem. I just got a call from HR office and they are going to reccomend 6 month probation or I can go to anger managment. What a crock of shit! I should have just knocked the son of a bitch half way across the hangar if I known this was going to happen.If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

That sounds like a great idea. The pay thing is pretty close also. I just dont want to burn a bridge.

freeflir29 0 #14 August 15, 2006 Yeah............as much fun as getting in a childish dig can be.........don't do it. It'll come back to haunt you sooner or later! Now you might casually mention as the time gets closer that you are moving on to bigger and better things. Just don't get shitty. Those assholes will be burning with envy enough.

BillyVance 35 #16 August 15, 2006 Quote Success is the best possible revenge. Yeah, that's what my wife keeps telling me. I have some long old grudges from high school where I'm dreaming that I bump into some of my tormentors and beat the shit out of them... I've had some good jobs, own a house and 3 acres, 3 cars (two of them paid off), and a 4 1/2 month old beautiful baby that I enjoy staying home for. Life is good. Pretty sure life aint that good for those bastards from way back when...

Rookie120 0 #18 August 15, 2006 QuoteSuccess is the best possible revenge. Yeah but it can come with a lot of shit from guys that you jumped over for promotion because you are more aggressive that they are. Just roll with the punches I guess. Take my ass spanking and move on. The thing I love is 8 other guys that I work with applied for the same new job that I will be going to in 2 months. Out of those 8, 4 failed the technical pre-employment test and 3 others never got a call back. The one guy who also got an offer with me is a very good friend of mine and a damn good worker. I laugh when I here those guys whining that they didnt get an offer and laugh even harder when they made fun of me for reading tech books and actually study.If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Oh yeah, almost forgot, I am shocked, shocked I tell you. Don't tell me they accused you of stealing a bullet-proof vest, too? And if you need a ride to the airport...Shit happens.

Naaa, putting a dollar in the chiks G-String who shot me down everytime I asked her out in high school was a better moment for me. I didnt even have to buy her dinner to see her naked. I saved money in the long run. And of course she told me the same story that she was doing ti to finish up college.

That's why you got shafted. How far are you moving to the new job? One little jab probably won't make a difference, but like Clay said, it's better to leave well enough alone.
