I don't care that you don't mind

Something in me broke today. Hearing how people "snap," has become abysmally cliche, but it really happens to be the only way I can describe the experience. Today I got chewed out by Marla again regarding the performance of my job duties. The flat, bottom line of what she told me was that I needed to be doing more while making less errors.

I am now more than a little concerned. I'm sorry that there is an in-grown cunt-tard running your job. I guess it's good you're not overly concerned with her opinion though, so that's good? Give me a call boy.

Love you sweety

Love you Dan. At least you can say with certainty that its her, not you? If you are working all day, you're working all day! Which is way more than most people do... ever... so you can still be pleased with your work ethic (that hardly anybody else has!). A fie upon her. Can we all call HR and say we were helped by this horrible woman, so when you transfer and complain, there's a record and SHE'S put on probation or something?

Coffee soon?

Few things are as ruinous as unappreciated toil. I'm sorry your emotional resignation from a job that doesn't deserve you had to be so jarring.

Simply, honestly, we love you and want good things for you. I wish there was a way to say as much that didn't sound like a bland platitude. It's all true. Just want to stress that.

I love you guys, and I appreciate your words. I'm okay, really, and I apologize for the pity-party. I think the experience was really a good thing ultimately. I feel like I've come over the top of a hill. It feels good to really be honest with one's self and feel comfortable enough with my own capacities to just not care about my boss' expectations. I worked an extra two and a half hours today, but it didn't even feel all that bad now that I've put the job in perspective as what it is: a stepping stone towards something better that deserves no more loyalty then is required to get me where I need to be. The whole thing has also helped put me in a vile enough frame of mind about a group of people to allow me to lose interest in their opinion of me, which, sad as it is, is a step I tend to find hard to make.

[Coffee soon]
