Re: Today I'm happy about......
I'm stepping away from the industry although my director (who I've known nearly 25 years) will continue to be my friend. No point in telling him what he already knows about my line manager.TANGODANCER wrote: ↑Thu May 19, 2022 9:29 pmI did. One day it all got too much and I saw the red light. No going back after that but I got another job eventually . Cost me a lot at the time , although three years later the same boss persuaded me back ...till the next time. Some battles in life are unwinnable.Gary the Enfield wrote: ↑Thu May 19, 2022 1:56 pmJust wish I had the nuts to tell my old manager some of the reasons I'm leaving but I'll stick to the tried and trusted.....at least until the notice period expires in 3 months.![]()

I recall maybe posting something on Linkedin, in relation to a departure from a particular company ,it was fairly innocuous but pointed to the share price plummeting on the day before I announced I was moving. Couple of hours later, my phone went "notification mad." Over 100,000 views later, I was still laughing.

Ah, now I understand why you can afford to quit your job. Little Miss GtE is no longer a liability and you can go back to being a hippy, or something. Congrats.Gary the Enfield wrote: ↑Thu May 26, 2022 4:41 pm![]()

TBH she's been largely self-sufficient since she left.

Re: Today I'm happy about......
Aye, Miss GG is a similar age to when I met Miss GTE and there’s only a few inches in it now! Tbf though, I was quite tall at the end of primary school. I just then stopped growing. Hope you have a good weekend celebrating!Gary the Enfield wrote: ↑Fri May 27, 2022 10:35 amYou did. She was taller than you even thenGooner Girl wrote: ↑Thu May 26, 2022 9:01 pmBlimey.
