See, that's what I mean.
What kind of asshole says that kind of thing?
I know I've mentioned this before, but I quit a job after my mom died figuring life was too short.
When I told my boss, who took it as a point of pride to make my co-worker cry during every tradeshow, she asked if I was being too hasty and wanted to know if I wanted to take a couple weeks instead---that was the nicest she'd ever been up to that point.
Just the day before she threatened to fire me because I couldn't remember one of 15 direct mail campaigns we were doing that month.
I asked her if when I came back if she'd stop being as big a bitch as she currently was and she didn't answer.
I told her I didn't think so then.
