Call For My Pumpkin, Please ... I'm Outa Here

Mood: Tense, irritable, and hurt

Thought of the Day: Keep your eye on the target. It may feel like you are doing much and accomplishing little, but keep your eye on the target and you will succeed in hitting it.

     Today, I allowed for the idea that somebody I considered a friend had turned to the "dark side". It was a stupid circumstance that could have been so easily fixed ... all he had to do was introduce me to the girl. She could have seen that I was nothing to worry about. I wasn't that kind of friend. Instead, he either didn't explain anything, or did a pitiful job of it, and she freaked on him with extreme jealousy. I know she did, because he said so. He asked me to change ... to pretend to be somebody I'm not. He said the same to another girl on his FB who agreed with me and gave the same reply. We're not changing for somebody we haven't met and flips immature fits just because her "man" has lady friends. Friends who have known him for over 20 years, and, therefore, have the right to sound like they know a guy. He even messaged me privately and asked me to stop acting like that. He was apparently worried about upsetting his girl, and her family, because they might see the comments and get the wrong idea.

     Excuse me? Oh, no ... if you feel that threatened by such ignorant people, then you are in the wrong place. Of course, it also sounds like you are projecting that ignorance on them due to your own fear. Who am I to say. I've never met these people. But then you get ignorant yourself ... and tell me that you will do anything to keep your girl from getting upset. I insist that I will not change who I am for such a stupid reason, but I reduce the number of comments I make. For a friend, I do what I can ... but when you allow your girl to slag me in her comments ... and support her in those comments ... well ... Fuck you, Jo. You are not my friend. That's a line that I will not allow you to cross twice. Good bye.

     For those of you who aren't sure, I blocked them both. Vile, contemptible, loathsome meat bag ... once upon a time, he thanked me for saving his life. Sounds like I didn't do him any favours.

Meanwhile, back at headquarters ...

     Today, I arranged for the final pieces on the chess board to be placed to ensure my victory. I had been racing around like crazy gathering what I needed to prove my High School Equivalency, so that I could pursue my career with the RCMP. Now, it's just a waiting game ... to see if it was enough. There are three possible placements, although only two are hiring at this time. I'm actually excited about the idea of working on a new frontier ... I so want this job!!

     This weekend I sponsored somebody into my Team in PartyLite as well. It's the incentive that I need to push through my own barriers and step into Leadership and be successful there too. I'm felling really good about it all.

     Other than that, it's busier than ever at the call centre. We added another city to our "family", but we lost some key players. Not many supervisors left - especially ones who can close. I'm seriously worried about the quality of those being left behind, and thinking that I really don't want to be there to deal with them. I'm tired of the attitude I keep getting dished.

Spot says it's time for bed.

Sweet Dreams ...
