So i have decided to quit my job. And i think it is going to be one of the best decisions ever. hopefully. lol
It basically comes down to this: a couple girls from my office and i went to the only woman on the executive team because we felt that we were being discriminated against from our boss because we are women. Then the next day our CEO and my boss called a meeting with our whole department and said that their were people creating rumors around the office that were complete 'crap' and that if we didnt like our job we should quit because they have a line of people waiting to take our jobs. Yeah, i dont know what planet they are from but that was illegal. Nobody talked to us about our feelings or tried to resolve it, they just threatened our jobs...
And then today our boss (who i have the problem with) decided that maybe he should talk to us. Then when we told him that we felt we were being treated un-fairly and that someone should have talked to us about it and that it was illegal what they did, he turned around and said, "well i could fire you guys right now because your hair is not professional today." (our hair were in pony-tails today). We got extremely mad at him and he said, "it's in the employee handbook that you have to look professional." I buy expensive clothes to go to work in and dress extremely professional, in my opinion. But when he said he would fire me because of my hair i lost all of my respect for him.
However, i'm looking for a part-time job on off hours so ty doesnt have to go to daycare and i could spend all day with him. The thing with this though is that he will probably sleep at Jame's, which i honestly dont like at all. But i think it will be worth it if i get to spend all day with him : )
I think i wrote a blog about this a couple weeks ago. I never see Ty, it is sooooo stupid! The world should make it easier for families.
There is a job that i am interested in already, it's Mon-Fri 6pm-midnight, 30 hours a week but pays as much as i get now p/h, and we would actually have more money then working full time because ty wouldn't go to daycare, and we wouldn't have to pay that ridiculous bill!! We shall see!

Beth,
This whole situation is hard for me to swallow. You have been there for me for so much, and everything is so out of my hands that all I can do is sit back and watch. Its sad to say but its time for survival and things are hard for many, and to stand up for what you believe is truly such a noble deed. There is no way things are going to be the same and I think you are one of the strongest people I have ever met. You said once Cyndy's like a sister to you and I have to say I feel that way with you. Your the closest in age to any one I hang out with and I have so much respect for you. Anything you touch in life will turn to gold because you are a person who continues to go. (that sounded funny but I know you know what I meant, you always do.) I have to say, Beth your some one who is naturally right. And that's more than just a debate sense. That's about how you generally life you life, you live it right.I love ya Beth. I won't even say good luck because I already know your going to rise above. So do what ya gotta do girl. I appreciate you and everything you stand for because you are truly one of the greatest people alive. See you tomorrow and I have to opened arms with HUG written all over it. -sami
This is soo selfish of me, but I hope this means I get to see you more while I'm home for christmas break!!
When will you see Jake? That's the only thing I see wrong with it. Unless he also works nights, then you would never see each other.
I have thought about working nights too when I become a mom. It really is so sad that you never get to see your child because you have to work. So Daniel and I have talked about it and we think that I should get like a part-time job (assuming Daniel's making enough money lol). I hope everything works out for you!
