He was actually helping the best he knows how. Why do I do this? This is a pattern I don't seem to be able to control 3 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

My Co worker smokes (and sits next to me at work), and I never notice the smell. She always washes her hands after, not sure what she does about breath, but I don't notice it.

If he's really that much of a jerk, he will think that you are desperate and making stuff up/won't actually be hurt by it.

[ - ] It's 5pm where I am, all day I've been struggling to not eat carbs.. I've had scrambled eggs for breakfast, chicken and mushroom stir fry for lunch, some carrot and hommus for afternoon tea (which had carbs) and I just caved and am having half a bagel dipped in some olive oil with salt and pepper. I can't believe how hungry I am. I'm trying to lose weight but also gave up smoking two weeks ago. I haven't lost any weight in the last two weeks which is fine but I don't want to gain any since we are going on a beach holiday in two weeks. This sucks! 8 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

I just quit smoking too, five days ago!! I'm also worried about becoming a fatty, which is why I hadn't tried quitting before. My advice: don't try to do too much all at once; quitting + dieting = begging for a relapse. Half a bagel won't kill you. Maybe you can let yourself have some carbs in the morning when they are better for you? Anyway, congratulations on quitting and have a great time on your vacation! [ Reply | More

1. When you quit smoking your metabolism slows. If your weight is the same it is like you lost. 2. Getting over the hump cutting out carbs is tough. Be really diligent for the first week and it gets much easier. (If you are going to binge on carbs, try and opt for more complex ones (ie whole wheat over white) and include some protein with the carbs so that when the sugars in your system are used up their is something for the insulin to work on. It will help with the peak/crash. [ Reply | More

It's hard to understand how some jurors could think she should be shown some mercy after she shot her boyfriend in the head, slashed his throat and stabbed him 27 times. Death penalty without question! Her contribution to the world will be to start a recycling program in prison. Great. [ Reply | More

Waste of energy. As my wise 4 year old told my 2 year old and me after being passed up by the bus the other day, just forget about it. If its a minor indiscretion, let it go. If its a major one, addresss it so that you feel true to yourself and then file it away under lesson learned and mOve on. [ Reply | More

[ - ] I despise Aetna! Last year, I tripped off a curb and broke my ankle. I went to the ER, paid my hospital co-pay and got everything taken care of. However, Aetna has been refusing to "process" my claim for the past 11 months, and it has been sent to collections 3 times (each time I screamed at the supervisor to call the agency and tell them it was being processed)! Aetna has assured me for MONTHS they will pay and have it taken care of; still nothing is being done. I got another collections statement this afternoon. What's the next step to take? A lawyer? 5 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

Make a complaint to the department of insurance, cc the CEO of aetna, the aetna claims department etc - and send it certified mail. They cannot refuse to pay out a claim for 11 months for no reason [ Reply | More

Been there, with Aetna, bills were due to a high risk pregnancy... There was some kind of glitch that kept making me retroactively uninsured, even though I was. So the bills would bounce. They drove me crazy. It went on for...sorry, but it was a couple of years or maybe even more. I was trying everything, but the right hand didn't know what the left was doing - maddening. It took a lot of phone calls, quite a bit of rage, and eventually I guess I got the right people on the line and it finally went away. For a time, while it was happening, it seemed like a second job. Wish I had advice for you. I think a letter from a lawyer might speed things up, can't hurt. [ Reply | More

[ - ] Annoyed and miffed with my direct supervisor at work. I screwed up something that was very minor a week or 2 ago (I told the client basic information but did not extract more information that would have been helpful for my job) and my supervisor nicely met with me privately to warn me that her manager would likely get complaints about it...but I diffused the situation so well that management opted to conduct a dept-wide to handle this particularly "difficult" client. As it turns out, other co workers who dealt with this client/account also had issues similar to me...so what does my direct supervisor do now? She writes me a scathing email summarizing all the items I screwed up on and how to do handle a similar situation in the future should it happen again. The email was only to me (unless she used the blind cc feature) but I can't fathom what purpose sending me this email would do. I already know very well how I screwed up, I don't need it to be hit over my head like a baseball bat to make me see it!! Ugh. Should I start preparing my résumé for another job? I am worried now that maybe she has a hidden agenda.? 20 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

But it was directed to just me. She randomly audits my work as require by dept policy, but all my prior reports were given good reviews. She has little to no say in my actual employment (my dept is small but it's part of an international corporation). Ultimately it's her boss's boss who wields the pink slip hammer. If she really wanted to screw me over, wouldn't she at least cc Human Resources and her boss? [ Reply | More

Not necessary for her to do this unless you majorly fucked up, which you deny doing. And I would only expect HR to be cc'd if you were about to be fired or put on a performance plan that day. [ Reply | More

I don't consider it a major fuck up but according to the tone of the email it is. Basically I was supposed to needle the client for financial statements and I didn't secure the info correctly and client felt my attitude was belligerent or dismissive (not sure which, it was my first time dealing with the scenario), but I admit I was not feeling well that day and was in a "fuck the world" mood that day, and it clearly showed in my report..which later proved to have false info that client assumed I wouldn't believe. So now I look very bad but I'm not sure if its an offense serious enough to fire me over it. I believe not because supervisors boss decided to hold a dept wide meeting/training to highlight my screw up (anonymously of course) but also I found out other people had screwed up with this client in the past (but not to the extent that I did). Sorry I can't provide specifics but I'm paranoid as its possible a coworker is on UB..lol -OP [ Reply | More

Whenever a client is upset it is a major fuck up. Esp, since you remember having a 'fuck the world' attitude that day and your attitude probably pissed off the client and you weren't at the peak of your performance capabilities. That said, I think the only important thing at this point is how eager you are to atone for your errors and improve your performance with this client. I would be sure to appear very eager and attentive for the next few weeks, especially. Mentally act as if you were just hired and are trying to impress your manager like a new hire would. Admit your errors and make it be known that you are eager to improve. What you described sounds like it could have happened to a lot of us. I am sure you will be fine if your attitude is right and if you are very focused on your job performance from here forward. [ Reply | More

I think its a CYA email in case there are future issues with your performance. I am sure she will file it away. If this truly is a minor issue, then you should not be worried. But since she wrote you a scathing email I think it was a bit more substantial of an error than you think. That doesn't mean she will fire you, etc, just that she wants it on record in case similar performance issues arise again. [ Reply | More

Thanks.,I've been at my company 4 years and have receiver a raise and bonus every year. I am worried because this seems more serious than I ever envisioned. I really don't know what purpose it would serve for her as a CYA exercise. The results of my meeting with the difficult client was documented by a 3rd party which is how it travelled up the chain of command..and I feel like I was singled out because other coworkers would blow off this client knowing that it would be unlikely to go public. I feel like a have a giant "Hit Me" sign on my back now at work !. -OP [ Reply | More

It was documented because any intelligent manager documents important performance discussions. Even though we have at will employment in the US, companies require documentation of performance issues that may support getting rid of you one day in case you decide to sue for wrongful termination, etc. [ Reply | More

It is hard to say without us knowing the particulars. However, I would probably say that you appreciate her emailing you regarding ways to improve with this client, then mention that you were previously unaware of how you should have dealt with that client. However, you will be sure to incorporate all of the points for improvement that she emailed you into any future dealings with the client, etc. [ Reply | More
