Agreed: virtual greenie :D

I haven't read back but big hugs to you Bella (((((((hugs))))))))

You say you aren't asking people to tell you how wonderful you are but Bella... you ARE!
You have become a good friend of mine over the past few months and I think you give excellent and caring advice.

Thanks Shaz, that really means a lot!

I also feel that you have become a good friend to me, and your advice, well, it's just awesome.

I really appreciate you all being here letting me vent, and talking me through this.

Ok so quick update. I quit my job. Yup I did it today. Well this is what happened. I went to my doctor on the 28th and he wrote me off for 8 weeks which would have taken me to the end of my term anyway.

I went into give it to one of my bosses and she said that she could make things easier on me and handed me a letter that said they were ending my term early. Seems that she already knew I was planning on leaving beforehand. She said she knew I was having a hard time with some of the staff, and they decided to pay me until the end of May, as well as continue my benefits. I wonder if this was to avoid another potential law suit for harassment.

It was something that I though about, but I wasn't planning on going through with it. This way works for me too, as I will still qualify for Employment Insurance.

So I did need to get some revenge of some sort, so I printed every nasty e mail that was sent to me by the girls, as well as a few nasy e mails that were sent to me by clients thinking they were sending them to one of the girls, just happens to be the one I had the most problems with. I left a copy on my bosses printer as well as forwarded a copy to the national office which happens to be the head of our H.R. department.

Oh well the deed is done. I will be going back to school full time in September.

I feel so relieved. It was my mental well being, and it was something that just needed to be done. I am happy and confident with my decision.

Let me be the first to congratulate you! And it sounds like you have all your ducks in a row with money and a new career. We will be here for you no matter what, don't forget!

Thanks Wondergirl. I am really lucky to have found you guys! :)

I'll keep you all posted, and you better know I'll be needing your help writing those papers for school.

Good for you bella, I hope those girls get what's coming to them, and in a big way that will knock them flat :)

Do you think you'll be contacted by your boss or the head office in regars to the email printoffs you gave them?

Bella... I just wanted to tell you I love you and I'm glad you're better. Thank you for being such a good friend. Good Luck with School. HUGS

I really couldn't even guess. If anyone I will be contacted by National. I think my boss would have just thrown them out.

I don't care either way, I just wanted to prove that I wasn't being paranoid about their actions.

Funny thing was, on Tuesday, I was going for lunch and those girls were already in the elevator, and they were holding the door until I was about 3 feet away, than they decided they would let the door close in my face, laughing the whole time.

I knew that was the final straw. That and I found those files in the wrong spot again.

Hey! Thanks Kit. Glad to see you back.

I've got my purple pen all ready to go! Can't wait!

Well bella, its over now, they're the companies problem now and they can go and f**k themselves. They are the worst type of people.

I really hope the head office does something about this

Bella, I am so proud of you. I hope you do follow through with the home office aspect, if for no other reason than to try to keep what happened to you from happening to someone else.

That gives you the summer to check into alternative learning methods. Hands on training with your friend, maybe? :)

Oh hey this also frees you up to try and find a good therapist :) - I mean that in the best possible way :)

I'm not really back... trying to wean myself a little at a time. It's like trying to quit smoking . But in a week or so maybe I'll be able to stay away. I'm glad you are happier. I only come back for a few minutes a day and sometimes two or three times a day to see my pm. I'm doing better! You go get them girl.

I've tried to stay away. I can't. How are you managing it? Maybe if I adopt four of hheath's kittens, I will have other things to occupy my mind...

Ha ha. Wg, you know you can't stay away. I know I sure can't. It's funny eh?

Hey just stumbled on this... good for you Bella :)

No need to thank us for something we should have done :)

You know I mean it.

I miss you, kity, but I understand (been there, done that). Get your book edited, and let me know if I can help with anything.

Does that mean we all have to kick in on child support now ?

I think it's been a great out come. You know it was a quick turn around, but I was at the end of my leash ( :p).

It's not my character to be depressed, I am normally happy go lucky. You guys should feel proud. It was one simple solution, and a bunch of great ears and big hearts.

Yes. Just your AMHD paycheques will do.

Bella I just came across this and took the time to read every post. I am so proud of you. I could see in each post your spirits lifting a little more. Good for you. Good luck with your new adventures. Never under estimate the powers of AMHD.

Now about this baby and child support?

(It's alive)

A post I had been responding to prompted me to come back here and re read this thread. Wow. I can't believe the turn around. Already have been back at school for a full year, getting ready to go back this September, my work environment is 100 times better than I could have ever imagined. I get to do hands on work with the beings I love. The animal behavior classes didn't work out due to funding, but now I am on an 8 year plan. I have another year to finish up the vet tech course, and then work experience for 2 years and then it is off to PEI for my DVM (doctorate of veterinarian medicine).

This thread REALLY helped me out. You guys should be so proud of yourselves.

I take this means you still have a job (but that's another thread). :)

The person who should be proud of him/herself is you. Bella, you have done the hard work to get yourself moving forward and I am very proud of you.

Yea, so far so good with this job. It's kind of a catch 22, I don't want to bring it up in case it prompts them to re open the idea of employing an aboriginal over me. For the time being I just come to work, do my job and collect my pay :) After all, all I need is this year of employment and then I will be in school full time.

Whatever happens, I am glad you are enjoying this job after what you went through in the past.

You really have come a long way.
