Well, he did it. My new boss, that is. He got me to quit. CRAP!
They just would not cave regarding my request for a reduction in hours. And although my union rep said I had a very good case, I decided that I wasn't willing to be labelled a troublemaker. Bergen doesn't have an overload of laboratory jobs, so I can't afford to be ostracized.
Although I must say it stinks to be labelled a troublemaker for standing up for my rights - but I know employers see things like that from a whole other angle than employees. The wrong angle, obviously.
So. An ambition amputee. Perpetually Palmolive'd. Doomed to domesticity.
Sigh.
