The Ongoing Saga 

It's always great fun when the HR rep suggests using the employee assistance program to sue the company insurance provider.

Even better, he said America sucks, the corporate insurance provider sucks, the parent company sucks for forcing us to use them, and he'd consider it a sign of great personal courage and strength if I went and found a new job to take care of my family, which is a fucking crime because I have a positive rep and he knows the business will suffer when I leave.

And most of this came unprompted.

And yes, he said "when," not "if." He was really frank with me about what he thought my odds of success were. Which he also thought was terrible.

I like him. I'm gonna miss him.
