Today was a whirlwind.
Had my yearly allergy testing this morning. Had to get B and the neighbors kids (who we take to school every morning) out the door all by myself today...and somehow get myself ready and do the Dr. office by 9am. I was just a little stressed! But, amazingly I made it there by 9:05. Testing went well. Most of my allergies are down and I haven't aquired any new ones. She said I can start coming every other week for shots now. Whooohoo!! :o)
Got to work at 10ish. Brought coffee for everyone. We had a two hour meeting this afternoon....employee survey results. fun, fun, fun... I've been to more lively funerals. But, we survived. The rest of the afternoon flew by.
P calls me at 4pm, as he is on his way to pick up B for another "make-up" baseball game, to tell me about the awful day he had at work. He recently had to "let someone go" at work...long story...but he did it the humane way, when he really just wanted to fire this employee outright. Well, she sends a letter today address to the CEO and the head of HR saying that he made promises that he didn't keep. Which is totally untrue. P has always handled things from an HR perspective in what was in the best interest of the employee first, then the company. Sometimes that meant "bending the rules" but he was always fair and has earned the respect of his employees because of this. Now because of this witch, he has to do everything by the book. He is so infuriated. It is just so frustrating to see him so upset. I want to go and give her a piece of my mind...but of course, can't do that. I just hope this all blows over and he can let it go. He'll be fine workwise, they aren't even concerned about it. It just means he'll have to do everything "by the book" from now on because he'll never know when they are "keeping tabs on him". UGH! People can be so selfish sometimes. He bent over backwards for this lunatic to make sure she wasn't left "high and dry" and she still wanted more.
Then to top things off, P picks up B from his after school program. B hands him a note. Apparently, he was throwing rocks at recess. I don't know if he was throwing them at anyone or anything....I'll find that out later. But, he was sent to the priciples office. Something he's managed NOT to do in the last few months. Just when I thought we were out of the woods....BAM! It's always something. :o)
So, I'm off for home. It should be a fun night.
