OK…here’s what went down (because I need to get this out…I’m bursting!): At first, as you know, I was supposed to have my 60-day Follow-up meeting with my boss and HR on Tuesday afternoon. Tha...

I got fired. I don’t feel like detailing it out right now, but yes, it happened. *edit: again, not really into getting into the nitty-gritty, but let’s just say it was not the best of situati...

So Boss has been super, duper nice to me the last few days. Like, wanting to be all chatty and personal with me. What does that mean? She’s feeling guilty and bad that she’s firing me TOMORRO...

Really? I still haven’t figured out OD’s “new” format. I want back in. I need to write. You would not believe the crap, and I wonder if it’s all bad, bad karma. I feel confessions coming on...
