R&B Amber Alert and Management

*"The closed sign on my door, I had to tear it down!"

I love this song.... I miss songs with minmal production and sans Pro Tools and shit, le sigh. When not only could the female performers sing, but they could saaaing... so big up to Miki Howard and 'nem....

Ok, a moment of silence for 80's & 90's R&B....... Now pour out a little liquor into my red cup...

So, of course the title of song brings me to the topic of management, but my management NOW is not bad as it could be, I mean I could be working for Diddy's bitch ass, digressing and shit, but it came from a mighty long way.... I found a blog I wrote a whiiiiiiiiiile ago about the manager I had about 2-3 years ago at my current job... here it goes:

I used to not believe the old saying that one bad apple spoils the bunch UNTIL I worked this job. I never knew how bad just one person and their negativity could affect so many people. My supervisor is the devil incarnate (and that is an understatement). At first I thought it was just me letting someone get to me, but this person had everyone rubbed the wrong way with her LIES, DECEIT, NEGATIVE ATTITUDE, INCONSIDERATION FOR HARD WORK(ERS), ETC........ But karma is very interesting because it is starting hit her in the workplace and in her personal life, funny how it works that way, and it is really going to hit her when I find a new job and I leave without anyone in the whole company trained how to do my job (including her), and I actually have been contacted about some jobs actually making more money, then she will see the err of her ways but it will be too late, because at this point all the reconciliation in the world will not keep me here. This place is wearing me down, and I am too hard and smart of a worker to waste it here and be stressed everyday, I just can't do it anymore, fed up is not strong enough of a word to express how I feel (and everyone else here too!, people who have been on this job 5-6 years are on the job hunt too because of this virus........) Wish me luck in my job hunt and interviews.........

I was feeling some kind of way... and the day after I wrote this blog I did something I have never done and hope I never will or have to do again and not to mention totally out of character... I cussed that lady out and called her everything but a child of God, yezzir... she got fired a few weeks later and I got her job .....
