Dear Clarinet/Saxophone teacher,
You do not need to make conversation with me every time you enter and leave this building. I have my own work to do. I do not care about fishing, how muc money you make, how busy you are or how badly behaved your students are. Just leave me alone!

Dear you -

I found some old e-mails and they made me smile. Thank you.

Dear Day:

Just get me through these 9 hours without the bullshit and we will be fine.

That is all you need to do.

Sincerely,
me

To my bosses,

I appreciate that my deadline for this project has been imposed by our client and not by you. I understand that.

And I appreciate you hiring in two members of staff to help with some of the dogsbody work. I do. I am going to work as hard and as fast as I can to get this project finished by wednesday.

But if every time I come into the office in the morning you give me other work to do, well, it's just not going to happen. If you are going to take on multiple projects with deadlines all in the same week, two extra members of staff will not cut it. There are only three of us normally as it is.

And when you bawl me out next week for not meeting my deadline? Just have a think about how hard I work at this job and the extra hours I put in, and then have another think about how much you actually pay me and shut the hell up.

Oh and I don't care how much it costs you to run the heaters. This office is cold and taking them away is unnaceptable.

Yours in disgruntlement,

Me.

rip one of his balls off, write WARNING on it, then put it in his coffee cup for him to take home.

Yeah. And if HR doesn't do shit, sue the damn company because there's no way you should be working under those conditions.

Ummm, seconded. I've never had to deal with anything like that ever, especially not in the workplace.

Theres no excuse for it, and unless something happens theres no reason for it to stop.

my original suggestion when you first complained about him was to tell him in no uncertain terms to stop it, so that you had back up should he try to defend himself by implying you had consented, but weeble, its gone way past that, this isn't something that he can say..."well, it was just a joke" or "i thought we had an understanding"

it really really has to stop.

listen to aunty smaugy.

it.has.to.stop.
