At what point. .

did your day take a turn for the worst?


That would be when the phone rang and Sim was calling me to tell me he was coming home for lunch and his stupid bitch boy in the office co-worker said in the background "The other's line's ringing, he has to go." Then proceeded to hit the disconnect button with neither of our consent. If I see bitch boy today he is going to get a big surprise. Asshole.

My day took a turn for the worse last night when we found out some assholes for whom my husband's old company did a job FOUR YEARS AGO are just now getting around to suing us. Since the job bankrupted my husband's company (a subsidiary of his father's company) and he had to go to work for his dad, the assholes can't come after the no longer existent company, which they drove into the ground with their impossible specs and deadlines and refusal to pay for materials, so guess what they're doing?

Yeah. They're coming after my husband PERSONALLY and accusing him of criminal fraud. And threatening to take our house, etc.

They'd have a fvck of a time proving it, since it isn't true, but they figure if he gets scared enough his dad will cough up the money. They're looking to get an out of court settlement by threatening him with a jury trial is my guess.

I say let the sons of bitches go ahead. No jury would convict Mr. Spart. Fraud indeed -- what a crock. They would have to prove intent, and it was never there. Any intelligent person could see immediately through this as a greedy company going after the little guy and using strongarm tactics to squeeze him. At least, that's my analysis. They're trying to intimidate him and get to his father by pressuring him.

I wish I was a lawyer. I'd jump in there with a countersuit for coercion, libel, slander and damages and send those bastards home with their tails between their shite-caked legs.

They'd never see an out-of-court nickel from me, and I'd fight them so hard that no jury would send them home with so much as court costs.

Suing the guy whose company they put out of business! Jesus! I could even see it if it were a civil suit to recover their losses, but they're charging him with fraud, which is just asinine. But they figure it'll work and that it will up their chances of getting an offer out of court from his father up front to avoid a trial. Fvckwads! Nazis! Scum!

When I found out last night that my mother spent from 11 am til 8 pm in the ER without ever being seen (after a fall that broke 3 ribs and other injuries) AND the fact they (parents) didn't see fit to call anyone to let us know.
If my mom wasn't in such sad shape at this moment I would go over there and shake the shit out of her.

Hmm. I feel better now. Tea, anyone?

Jesus H. Christ!

Isn't there a place we could, like, round up all the idiots (negligent ER personnel, shithead coworkers, greedy and litigious scumbags) and just whack them?

When I had a bunch of shit to get done and my boss informed me that I had to decorate the office Christmas tree. Normally, I would have enjoyed it, but she had to pick a day where I didn't even have time to take a smoke break.

[sparticle]

I had a job one time where they called me into the office and told me to work out the rest of the week and then clear my desk; I was fired. They then asked me to decorate the office Christmas tree since it was "part of my job".

What I said is pretty much what you would think I would say. They were ALL welcome to decorate that Christmas tree. Yep. Angels on top, each and every one, starting with My Big Mean Bitch Of A Boss.

"Don't burn any bridges," my ass. And I had fun burning 'em, too.
