    Alliwant - what about just taking it a stone at a time now and see how you feel as you go on? And WOW at being at your 20-year lightest weight! :T

    Go for it with the exercise! I started with a gradual approach, just kept adding a little bit more, sometimes every week, sometimes every few weeks (either higher intensity, longer duration or more frequent sessions but not all at once!) :D

    Work today I was so angry my legs would not actually work with complete fury, anyone ever had that?

    Was out yesterday on my day off got left answering messages, from a very stressy supervisor, should have taken a test last day of the month yesterday she had 30 days and 2 shifts with her to tell me, never told me once so she panicked, her lack of planning does not make it my crisis, went up on the way to pick the little one from school, she had left in the middle of a shift to go to the doc, no one knew what it was about, she never rang again, never contacted my mobile and left me this.....

    Well not even me, it is addressed and sealed to my colleague, upon opening she is supposed to tell me off but I was so incensed I took it off her read it again and put it in my pocket.....the colleague pleaded with me to give it back as it was hers etc so photocopied it here goes....

    to &*&*

    Please inform &^&&* that I am extremely disappointed that she should not give me the courtesy of returning my phone calls(I was not in! and why should I have to be just incase she rings with her problem which she created by having 30 days to tell me to take the test but panicked on the last day and could not get hold of me, what kind of leadership team management supervisory skiils are they?)sorry rambling......


    She may have come into the shop but from what I have been told she did not stay around long enough to find out what I wanted (she had left mid shift to go to the docs and I popped in on my day off on the way to the school to pick my youngest up, I cannot be on 24 hour call it was my day off)


    So because of her 'actions' the whole of the 'team' have failed their MSA, I did not expect her to come into the shop and not wait and be there earlier in the day.

    I did ring her 4 times in the day and left 2 answering machine messages.

    Not signed and that is that....oh my giddy aunt it is not, in the middle of compiling a letter to the boss who is in Turkey on his hols so knows nothing, I will not be made a scapegoat for her poor planning, I did not have to be in, I did not have to go to the shop, it isher that is in the wrong and I will not be blamed for her errors.

    I was so annoyed left the shop to put the rubbish out and did honestly think of walking but oh no this does not stop here this goes on....

    Walking makes you look guilty but i think you need to get in there first!! You need to phone him or her when they get back and explain the situation. What an !!!!!! she is. I hate people like that

    Victory, I feel for u hon. I have recently experienced what it's like to have a supervisor/manager like that. I'm afraid I didn't cope with it nearly as good as you and lost the plot with him. Maz must learn to control her temper....

    So chin up girl! Don't let the barstewards get you down like they did with me!!!!

    Alli WAY TO GO!!!!!

    Eric - You put us all to shame with your great losses! Keep up the good work and I'm sure us girls can arrange something with the boots and spanking lol.

    Welcome newbies, good luck on your personal journeys




    Am totally in a confoozled state with regards to the new/old fella. My feelings are all over the place. He's the only guy who can make me blush, he's the only guy who's ever been able to make me blush. Really mega like him, he's sweet, kind and a total gentleman, but then my fear of commitment creeps up again. Dunno if it's a fear of commitment or a fear of getting hurt again. So try to keep them at arms length lol.


    Think I need to get my own head together before I see him again, but he's such a lovely person.. AAAAAAARGH why does it all have to be so confoozling!!!!:rotfl:

    They say that for relationships you should brush off the past and look at the present as if it was day one, a start of a new life but how can you? The hurt from the past is still there, what happened in the past, makes the present and the future so not sure on the American version of moving on and bettering your life, sure there must be something in it, it is also like when they say a relationship goes stale, stop, take a step back and go on a date to refresh it.

    They reckon the way you look at it, all clear and fresh and new makes the difference because in a relationship each other can be taken for granted etc.

    Love and life and feelings and relationships are confoozling as you say:D but maybe if you looked at it from a different angle, saw it as new and exciting that could lead you on a path of true fulfilling happiness rather than old and scary?

    victory - resign from that hell-hole then claim constructive dismissal. You have plenty of evidence of their mental abuse of you despite an exemplary work record especially with all the excellent test results you've been getting.

    Speak to your local CAB TODAY and get yourself out of that mess, for your own peace of mind if nothing else.

    victory so sorry to hear what's going on with your job. Good idea writing to the boss - I think you need the opportunity to explain yourself. Just try to be factual in the letter though, don't let emotion take over. If you appear to be the calm and rational one then you will be more respected than your boss getting themselves into a right flap.

    The boss is the worst culprit! :cool:
