I am in a dark space tonight...

There are some really f*cked up people in this world and they do some really f*cked up things.

My hubby and I work f*ckin' hard for our family and I am f*ckin tired of being repeatedly kicked in the nuts by fate.  

I'm tired of feeling like the rug is being pulled out from under me all the time. 

I'm tired or working for sick, sadistic, petty psychos who have been around 1/15^th the time I have. I'm tired of a man as good as my husband having to put up with sick, sadistic, petty psychos who get promoted to positions that make them worse.

I'm just f*ckin' tired and I want a g*d-damned break.

No, I don't feel better, but I am a purger so at least my shoulders are sort of back down where they're supposed to be.

That is all.

The world is a weird place. Just today I read on CNN that you can move forward in your career by making enemies. Sigh - I just hope for a better world and know in my heart that I am a kind person.

Hugs!

If I have to f*ck with people to get ahead in this life, I'm happy staying on the bottom of the totem pole, thank you very much.

The worst part of this is that I LIKE my company. I LIKE most of upper management. They have gone through a lot of changes in the last few years and have come a long way and made real progress in dealing with a lot of the "legacy issues" kleft over from the old guard. They have done very well by me and have given me a challenging job that I enjoy every day at a decent wage. I cannot complain about my company.

But then they hired an SSPP in and it just turns my day-to-day work into a stress-pit-of-despair. The SSPP is a real piece of work and it's just a very delicate dance we're doing trying to get the CEO to see what she is without her finding out.

We're all actively trying to 1) do our jobs and take care of our employees, 2) put up with the SSPP and all the difficulties that presents, and 3) stab her in the back in secret. It's very stressful and the only thing that keeps us going is the hope that we will be successful in getting the SSPP removed from authority over us.

God help us if we fail.

I find the way the world works just freaking amazing. And the bad people don't always get what's coming to them either.
I hope things get better soon. :hugs:

This was finally what cemented a belief in God for me. If I had to go through life with the idea that there is no real comuppance for all the things that people inflict upon each other and get away with in our human justice system, I would fall into dispair and never get out.

I'm probably racking up many days in Purgatory for delighting in the idea of my SSPP burning off her own bad behavior, but I'm sorry, it makes me happy. Am I bad? ;-)

Poor thing. I know what you mean. ::hugs::

Thanks. :-)

Grasshopper, you must channel your anger for good--some good Old Testament-style hate, that is. F*ck 'em all with a giant f*ckity f*ck stick. And remember glorious Hubris: The wheels grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine. Eventually what goes around comes around. It's just a damned shame that you probably won't get to see it, and thus lose the chance to stand and applaud.

It is times like this that I wish I had your command of the language. I am no slouch but you are the Mt. Olympus of writers to me. LOL! Very 1920's society pages... :-)

Perhaps I could pay you to draft my complaint?

For my situation, those wheels are definitely turning and I may be around to make a nice, warm, tasty loaf from that fine flour. Everyone who works for the SSPP (sick, sadistic, petty psycho) is presenting a united front to upper management. We may win, or we may be looking for work. I do not desire to throw away 10 years with this company, but I cannot work for this SSPP much longer.

For my poor husband it is worse. It has become apparent that the higher management at his company will continue to promote SSPP's and it doesn't matter if he transfers or complains, there will just be another SSPP somewhere else that needs a slappin'. He needs to look for another job, but he is a feisty spirit that doesn't take shit from anyone (part of what I love about him) and I can only hope that he finds something better before he tells off the SSPP and gets fired. He has a long fuse ut it is definitely finite and it will blow eventually.

*sigh* I tried once to figure how how to say "kicked in the nuts by fate" in latin to take as my life-motto but, since I don't speak latin, I didn't get very far...
