Nemesis

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

tomorrow is my showdown at work : 14:30, me + Unison Rep vs. HellBitchBoss + Personnel patsy
I'm not going to win, I can feel it and the Unison Rep was no help on the phone today.

Options R :
a) acquiese
b) crash & burn
or
c) stab the shite outta them

some people on here already know my situ and have been of great support, I thank you all :notworthy:

I've only gone public tonight because, frankly I'm shitting myself.

thanks
James

James, honey

Firstly :kiss: ...do not sh!t yourself...

Any HellBitchBoss + Personnel patsy needs a good stabbing once in awhile...thinking about it a good crash & burn could do the trick....

And having the respect and gutts to put it out there deserves :notworthy:

Lots of luck and do not worry... I have all my faith in you whatever happens.... :wink:

i really dunno what to add James...

support as usual is foremost in my mind...yet i am outta my depth with what is likely to happen

positive thoughts...and personal hygiene (get rid of that facial hair) wouldn't go amiss :innocent:

Good luck, put your argument over as best you, don't loose the heid, don't answer her questions right away, take a second and think about the question and your answer carefully, once you've said something you've said it, this may sound obvious but I was in the same situation about 18 months ago and "in the heat of battle" it's easy to loose the plot a bit. Get as much down on paper or dicta-phone as poss', make SURE you get her version of the minutes and argue over them, remember, these bastards will say any thing to get you "hot under the collar", don't let them, let them see the most polite, obliging and work conciouse bloke in the building, if that fails, then STAB the bastards!, and remember, you've got ma number.

Good luck Mr Blast. Nothing else someone yet to leave school can say really, but what everyone's put forward so far is no doubt top notch 8)

I fully second scottys strategy. :von:

Don't be vulnerable - beat them with their own weapons - if you loose, walk away with pride - if you win, stab them anyway. :wink:

Good luck tomorrow!

Exactly what canon said Big Guy. If you do crash and burn, don't forget NOT to p1ss on the embers.

Good luck mate. I'll be thinking of you. :notworthy:

James, don't admit defeat before it's even happened - it may not. I can only back up what others have already said. Don't lose the rag, no matter what poison is spat at you, and take time over your answers. If you get the chance, remind them of what you have done well - and I'm sure there must be a lot, avoid counter-attack if they try to bait you but make sure you stand up for yourself!

GOOD LUCK :notworthy:

Hi James,

I wish you the best of luck to get through this sh*te and I second what Scotty and Andrew_S said. In my own words: keep up a pokerface, don't let them make you explode, say your part as calmly as possible, and avoid any direct "I haven't - she has" game. That's the only way to win. As soon as you take up the offer of such a kindergartenlike game you loose. But if you can stay calm and matter-of-factly you win, and that's what you need - for your own sake, and for any future job you might take on.

Hugs, Eva.
You can't fix stupid.
