Imagine Flames Behind Me, As I Walk Away Smiling
Okay, so it's not that good yet. I'm hopeful, though.
I have spent the past few weeks on the phone with various and sundry HR employees passing on crucial information. Shock, awe, disgust and yea, even Capital M "Meetings" have taken place... all without my presence. It seems that I only need speak in an even tone and state facts for people to freak out.
I have been asked to keep things 'Close to the Vest' for the moment, but have been assured that Things Will Change.
I reckon that whole "I'll even call the EEOC if you need me to" may have been what tipped the scales in my favor.
That, facts and nine calls from other complainants in the office, anyway.
Big Boss was warned long ago about this very potential, and he laughed.
NEVER, EVER, EVER underestimate the power of female rage. Especially when it's consolidated.

Yes, a very definite force to be reckoned with! Keep at it, and if you need backup, just holler! You've got a whole contingent of people out here waiting to help with the clubbing...er...convincing. :)
Oh, I hear ya. I can leave ashes in my wake if I am extremely ticked off.
Amen, sister.
Sing it!
Oh, how I would love the full uncensored version of events. I feel that I would need a tub of popcorn and I would be more interested in it than in the last few movies I have gone to see. You go girl!!
Oh... and you never want to piss off a group of women. I mean stupid much?
Nothing would scare me more than a room full of pissed off women.
I'm DYING to know the full deets!
Rage and fire tend to make a powerful statement - primarily, piss me off and I'll burn your house down.
Never had to use the mad face at my current job. Don't want to make the bosses cry yet.
Hell hath no fury ... lol
I soooo need to email you some stuff. Yes, it can pay off. IN SPADES. ~KDS
You are my new hero! I had an old boss that I still hate to this fucking day. HATE.
One my first day at work, I noticed something highly illegal and mentioned like a big fucking dumbass to her, "Oh, that's a Federal crime; they'll have to change that," instead of going to someone in charge and saying, "Hey, Federal lawbreaker, I want one of those jobs with good pay."
That bitch used that info to milk money from those people and keep me under her for a living work hell of several years before I finally left.
Give 'em hell!
Woohoo!!! I'm all for female rage. Men definitely underestimated the power there - but soon come to realize - it's AWESOME!!
Okay, I feel like I walked into the middle of the movie here. And I hate that 'cause it sounds like a good one.
You go girl!
