Oh, spare me the theatrics!

In Reply to: That little snippy comment may - come back to haunt you later.
You have the power to change your work situation. You can make a phone call to be put on a different account. You can quit your job and find one with a platform and workload that suits you. In the meantime, don't begrudge management for what few little perks they may get. What kind of person are you to do that? I'm sure they worked hard for it. It's not like a day at a local spa even compares to the MT convention in Hawaii or whatever it was.
As for finding a lump, thank you, I've already had that happen this year on top of everything else I've been through. So thank you for mercilessly wishing it upon me. Your wish is granted. You know what it taught me? Life's too short to be miserable. Fix what you can and don't dwell on the rest of it. Put your stressors into perspective or you'll wind up sick from it. Or dead. I quit my lousy job to find something better. It's amazing how much better your entire life and outlook is when you take active steps to fix things that are not going right. You've got the power to do it.

For a business owner, you sure have a lot of spare time!
And quite the potty mouth. Poor bitter thing!
But not everyone has extra time to spare consistently, even at their
Again, I don't work for Amphion, but I could never work somewhere that wanted consistent OT. I deliver high-quality, high-production 40 hours, and outside of that I still don't have enough hours in the day to devote to my non-MT life. Amphion would be a terrible match for me, but I'm glad there are others who can live up to the overtime demands.
I'm in that boat too - got a spare life vest?
P&G forced my sister to stop selling Mary Kay in her spare time...gotta SM!
This was years ago way before P&G even owned Revlon. It's not like my sister wore a white coat and created cosmetic formulas. She was a RECEPTIONIST!!! The Suits at P&G told her to make a choice because they didn't need an employee working for the competition...Give me a break!
BTW, the ONLY reason my sister even sold the MK was so she could get it 1/2 price.
Whatever you do on YOUR time is YOUR business!! (As long as no laws are being broken or ppl getting hurt)IMO
