There so much to say...and as usual, I sit here and have no idea where to begin.

 

Last weeek wasn't the big week.  We had this awful news at work that our boss wouldn't be inhis position anymore and that a lot of changes were to happen in this month.  I remember our faces...we were literally in a state of shock.  We didn't want to lose him.  He's been such a nice guy and had tried to do so many good things for us that...we simply didn't want him to leave.  Those two days were more than just horrible.  Our working environment was truly heavy and every time we sat together for a little chat, we ended up complaining about the decisions made.  Jeremy had decided to quit because the new changes were against "his" group of teachers as he called us; and the only option he was given was resignation.   All this happened on Tuesday.

On Wednesday, we had another flash meeting; this time with the big boss.  God...If Paul hadn't died...but he was too sick...and...well..this new boss is going to be with us for only six months and he started doing all these abrupt not-well-thought changes....*sigh*.  Not only we were concerned about us, but also about Colombo itself.  Jeremy came to his position a year ago, after being in someone else's hands whose performance had let us all wounded.  Jeremy took the positin and made things better for all of us, and now Mr. Schobber wanted everything back to that other person's hands.  that would have just meant, less hours of owrk, therefore; less money, and less benefits and less everything.  The thing is, he came to the meeting and at the end, he didn't answer any of our questions and what's more, he admitted he had taken the decisions without knowing all the facts he'd had to take into consideration.

puff...

We were really angry.  His attitude was that of, "it's my way or the highway"

Then, on Thursday, we had another flash meeting.  This time, it was Jeremy who wanted to tell us that Mr. Schobber had taken his decision back.  he would think about things better and everything was back to normal.  We were all so happy.  We still are, yet...I can't take off me this bad feeling about all that.  I definitely have to be doing something else by the time I'm thirty.
