    so then chris you have to learn how to communicate with this man, dont think of him as your brother. He wants conflict show none ask about your nephew ask to speak to him. Talk about his family .... above all please do not lower yourself to his level you are way above that.

    I dunno, if someone is as nasty as chris says he is, with me, I wouldn't want to know him thankyou very much.
    As it is said, you can't pick you family (but you can only see them when you really have to)

    I said hello the other day on MSN...and he ignored me and went off line....that's why I'm thinking of being a bit more 'provocative' in my tone....I want a response!
    Ahh, just read this, you want an argument with him?

    But if that person has a family and chris wants to still be involved with them unless you cut yourself off entirely what do you do?? Chris said she wanted to still be in touch with her nephew, what does she do then?????

    True, only Chris can answer that I suppose.

    I discovered a fault in the system a couple of weeks ago, only a minor fault, but as we are merging two systems together the !!!!!! has hit the fan.

    I've suddenly become very important, the head man wants progress reports, all my other work has been taken away.

    Apparently I should feel important and proud that they need me so much and want me to attend emergency meetings.

    Guess what? I feel stressed and really not happy about the whole thing. Wished I'd kept me gob shut :(

    Try not to get stressed and take your time over the work.
    Can't really suggest anything else. Just try not to get worked up about it.

    I don't know if it helps, but when I have a big work problem I break it down it smaller pieces and do it bit by bit, it is less overwhelming that way.
