The bad and the good

Finally today the bitch from hell supervisor I have endured months of bullying, backbiting and sniping from pushed me too far. She rotates her choice of 'victim' regularly from those among us she considers herself to have power over but I seem to get alternate weeks, as opposed to the usual one in six my colleagues contend with.

The hierarchy wont sack her despite her blatantly illegal treatment of us, she has them over a barrel for one reason and another and they wont or can't bite the bullet!

So today, after yet another week or two of sustained hassle I lost the plot momentarily, uttered a few choice words and took a hike! Thankfully (for I need the income) I came to my senses before I had completely removed myself from the company premises, aware that once I had done so I could be fired for gross misconduct. I took about a thousand deep breaths, counted to somewhere in the region of 1000000, dried my tears of frustration and anger and went back....slightly heartened to hear the boss at least chastising bitch woman from hell. With any luck tomorrow she will have decided to blank me, her usual response to pushing it too far, and at least I wont have to listen to her constant crap for a day or two.

But all of this pales into insignificance today, for today, as you are no doubt aware by now Alan Johnston was finally released after 114 days in captivity! Some excellent news to celebrate for once and something to put our everyday troubles into perspective.
