ICKY!!!

The old owner was in here today for some personal property. He was, of course, properly supervised at all times, and I didn't really have to see him...though I did hear him at one point.

The gentleman that was supervising him told me that he tried to blame the company's problems on everyone else...including myself and the MIS Manager. And, pretended he didn't know about a lot of the things that went on. This man went on to tell me he just laughed at the old owner...to his face.

But...sigh...the worst thing, I guess, is that the old owner said he and some business partners were going to make an offer on the company.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been doing so well handling all this. Now, I think I'm just depressed. :(

*hugs* Are you sure your old owner and my current owner/bosses aren't related? Here's hoping they fail in getting it back, for everyone's sake.

Do you have that problem at work, too? I'm so sorry to hear that.

Thank you.

I'm hoping that the people who were running it for the past month or so get it. They're still trying and they have until next Wednesday to make things work.

Right now, though, I'm it as far as employees go. Alone in the building with the security guard, except for when folks from the Trustee's office drop by.

Let's just say if they'd just lay me off, I'd probably die from the relief of not having to come in every day. But I keep coming back, because if I didn't, the 25 people I help keep working currently would be out of a job and I am not yet to the point where I could face myself in the mirror if I leave them to the bosslady's "tender" mercies.

*hugs again*

*many hugs*

I hope you're feeling better. And everything works out, in the end :)

[queenoftheskies.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)

I'm just so frustrated today that I want to scream. I don't normally get angry. I'm a pretty passive person. But, I'm so angry today that I could explode.

How are you feeling? Is tummy doing better?

[navicat.livejournal.com]

The tummy is fine, thank you! :) I've been eating in moderation (which is difficult for me)and it seems to appreciate that.

Thank you. :)

It occurs to me the employees might themselves be able to make an offer on the company, if they ever got paid regularly. :/

[queenoftheskies.livejournal.com]

Exactly.

The way the old owner got the company in the first place (over the people who are trying to buy it now) was that he told the court it was going to be an employee-owned company.

Never happened.

Sorry to hear this Miss J. But try to not be *too* depressed over the matter just yet... It's not certain that he'll get the company back, right? There's still a sliver of hope?

[queenoftheskies.livejournal.com]

Yes, actually, there is hope. It's kinda cutting things close, but there is hope.

I guess I was depressed over the fact that that asshole would say awful things about me after how long I kept his stupid company running and after everything I've been through.

The Trustee's rep said that he thinks the old owner is a sociopath...that he completely believes every single lie he tells.

I'm just angry, I guess. And, I feel so...so...I don't know.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Well... I know it's cliche to say, but as long as you know the truth, it doesn't matter what that jerk has to say. I'm sure that everybody you work with knows your tireless work ethic and dedication. He's a bitter little putz who deserves not a minute of your time or energy...

[queenoftheskies.livejournal.com]

Sigh...I guess I'm just feeling sorry for myself tonight. Things kinda piled up on me today.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Well, you're certainly entitled to throw yourself pity parties now and again... Especially with all you're going through. Just know that your friends are here for you, as always....

[queenoftheskies.livejournal.com]

Thank you, sir.

[queenoftheskies.livejournal.com]

I can tell you one thing...he seriously deserves to be kicked. That's for sure.

I keep telling myself it'll all be over soon, but now, I'm afraid that some of this might end up in court somewhere along the lines. Bleh. Not something to look forwardy to. :(
