It is my opinion that gypsy, having been through all this trauma and stress, needs a vacation.
And what better way for Rocks Off to show their support and love for gypsy than by everyone chipping in a monetary donation, via Cardinal Fang's paypal account, towards raising plane fare for gypsy to fly out to San Francisco and join the West Coast summit on July 9th?
The Gypsy West Coast Summit and Gram Parsons Tribute Concert Fund!
Who's with me?

Because of the job that I do, nothing ever really shocks me. The depth of assholes out there is almost without limit. It is unfortunate when said assholes are in a position where their asshole-ishness can affect, in extremely negative ways, those who are not assholes.
I am very sorry that this has happened to you. Feel free to contact me off board at any time if you need a sympathetic ear. If I were there you could have my shoulder too.
I'm not going to tell you what to do. You are smart, follow your instincts. But I will give you a word of general advice...do not react on emotion. Think before you speak or act. Reacting on emotion will often make matters worse.
I would wish you good luck, but I don't really think you will need it. Keep your head, and this thing will blow up in the fat fuck's fuckin' fat face.
And if it doesn't, move on. Your time is too valuable to be dragged down by some fat asshole. |

" Did I mention in one of the prior posts that my 43-year-old boss married a twenty-something year-old x-ray tech...whom he started banging when she rotated through there? "
I respect and admire your boss ................

Thank you so much, all of you.
I did get terminated today. Even though a "corroborating witness's" story did not match up w/ Fat Bastard's. They did both agree that they saw the top of my undies, which they did agree were boyleg-style "man-panties."
I remained calm and dignified. I did not cry. I stood my ground, and stuck to my story. I said I was in shock...running the gamut of emotions from sad to angry...that I never figured that Fat Bastard was a devious, conniving, manipulative man.
The HR man and Fat Bastard are very good friends...so I was doomed from the start. He asked me if I had anymore incidents that I would like to report about sexual harassment amongst co-workers. I said that I did not, because I do not like to drag people's names into it, and risk their jobs.
However, they never gave me any paperwork to look at or sign...so I've no idea if I was terminated or if they took it as a resignation (I doubt resignation--because I'd have had to have signed something.)
I talked to my lawyer today, and he said we have a case. All they have to do is take one look at the both of us, and know that this fat bastard is a liar.
On the upside, I've had a ton of job offers today. So, I'm going to follow up on them next week. I'm sure everything will turn around.

I have always found that out of shitty things goodness springs.
My advise is sue. For HUGE dollars, settle for half(make sure it's for emotional pain & suffering...can't tax settlement money for pain & suffering), and use the profits to pay for your new house.
In the meantime, you get a better job.
You will end up the winner in this yet! |

God, I love you guys! You have been so sweet. I really appreciate it.
I forgot to add that Fat Bastard's story changed overnight as well. Today it was that I showed him my panties, pulled down my scrub pants, and asked him "Do you like what you see? Huh? Do you?" And that he replied "Pull your pants back up. What in the hell are you doing?"
Which is a HUGE LIE!
My main boss, "X" (the student fucker) was really nice...but he has an ulterior motive as well...and that is that I know a LOT of stuff about him, and he knows it...he kept giving me *that* look like "please don't rat me out." I didn't...because I will need him for a recommendation for a new job.
He kept trying to act all nice...escorting me to my car, telling me what a great tech I was, and how well-liked I was by the doctors in the ER. blah blah blah. He offered to get me a temp job making big money...but I declined. I don't want any 'help' from him. I said "No thanks, 'X'. Just give me a good referral whenever I apply for a new job." He claimed he would...but I don't know what or who to believe anymore.
I so appreciate y'all. I'm going to hook up my camcorder to all of my Stones videos and send Voodoo a ton of stills to use as headers...now that I've got some free time.

And, SS, you're right...I was miserable there. I had to do my work plus Fat Bastard's. I barely had time to use the bathroom...and if I went to fill my little sport bottle water deal, he would page me! Like, I'd only be gone for two minutes. That is how the whole Jabba the Hutt jokes started...the other guys noticed how he was possessive of me, and started joking about it.
I was in a rut...needed out...and now I have the time to go seek employment elsewhere.
I called a friend in another town thirty miles from here...and her co-workers had already heard the story! Except it was all twisted into me being a total slut, hitting on Fat Bastard. My friend set them all straight about what I'm really like...so they said to come on down there and apply Tuesday.
Thanks again!

May FAT BASTARD rot in hell, along with the rest of the scumbags who have treated you so wrongfully. 
Gypsy...you MUST consider this a blessing in disguise. I know that's easier said than done. One door closes, another opens.
You WILL get a better job...and I hope you pursue legal action.
We ALL support you and you know how to reach me, my friend!

It is a blessing in disguise. I was so miserable. I just spoke to a few co-workers over the phone...and they said they would love to be character witnesses. So, that makes me feel better.
I know that I can get a better job in a better place.
That place is the most hostile work environment that I've ever worked in. It was very stressful. One of the women at work started yelling at another one night, and I walked in on the tail-end of it. And the woman getting yelled at is the sweetest woman ever. I mean she is just a doll...very Christian...but not pushy...just a sweetheart. I started crying when I witnessed the bitchy one just going off on this sweet little old lady. I just went up to her and gave her a big hug. And the very next week, this sweet woman had to be committed because she was so stressed and hurt.
I just don't like to see things like that.
Plus, you guys have read my stories about the evil surgeon and the cruel radiologist who abused the recently amputeed patient.
That place needs to seriously be investigated.
I love you guys! |

Gypsy, my heart goes out to you. I work as a physician out in bumfuckia the Pacific. One of the reasons why is that I have found the idea of peers, of comraderie in health care has just disappeared on the mainland. Years ago I worked in the mainland for a large multi-clinic for-profit medical group in the midwest. I rose through the ranks, became a department head, and about three months later was cornered by two stock holders and the Administrator concerned about a rumour concerning my sexual orientation, which did not arise from work. I have never understood why it was important or an issue. They scheduled a meeting with the marketing department to figure out "damage control" and how to handle the rumour (the midwest is great, isn't it, I Bet many Euopeans here have trouble imagining shit like this)! Two days after the meeting, before I heard the results, the same Administrator approached me again, this time with the CEO, to inform me that I was being charged with sexual harrassment for hitting on a 19 year old female secretary.
I started to laugh so hard, I nearly cried. I asked them which charge did they want to level, that I was gay or chasing the young girls, and didn't it seem that the two canceled each other out? I got a lawyer, and his suggestion was that I aplogize in writing to the secretary, not for hitting on her, but for her misundersatnding of events surrounding her. I did, she accepted, and all of that disappeared. I was still angry, but it did not seem I had much a of case for anything. A year later, the big wigs seemed to have forgotten it all; I had not. I left Indiana, indeed the mainland US, and have never looked back.
Life out here in the islands is great. Every paradise has flaws, one of them being it is hard as hell to get to the Stones' concerts. BUT the emotional environment of my work place is great. At the little hospital, we are all open, relaxed, unafraid to laugh and joke or even speak our mind! Third world Catholocism allows for a lot of moral lee way that I am sure would scare the pope, and that has led to a lot more sense of freedom and a lot less worry about prosecution. I cannot imagine returning to the US mainland and dealing with all that CRAP that people think is civilization. |

Gypsy don't worry about that bastard, he has enough beeing himself...
Surely he's so perverted, ugly and rejected that having a real real beauty and such nice person like you in front of him is enough to let his more wicked dreams come trough his imagination |

Honestly, you all, I can't express how grateful I am to you for being so nice and so supportive. Especially considering that you don't 'know' me in person, y'know? It really brings tears of happiness to my eyes to read your nice posts. I would have never dreamt in a million years that I could make such great FRIENDS on the internet. I always thought that it was for losers, living in basements, trying to get lucky online. But, when I found you guys a couple of years ago, my opinion quickly changed. I've also made a lot of other friends from my Anita group. Great friends just like you guys...and we call and e-mail one another. I would have never thought it possible.
SheRat, you know I think the world of you.
LadyJane, you are a true friend.
I luv you gals.
And you guys are awesome too, of course. Tele, beer, SS, sirmoonie, nanky,kahoosier, et al. If I left anyone out, it's only because I'm a bit drunk and took a couple of pills. <--prescription, of course.
Voodoo, I will be able to get some very good stills for you this week.
I was going to go to Branson for the weekend with some of my family...but I don't want to be asked all of those
questions about work...I'm still feeling a little fragile right now...not to mention that I need to be tight with money. I always want to be prepared for the worst.
Have a great Fourth of July Weekend--all of you!
Kahoosier, do you need any x-ray techs? ha! |
|
|
| kahoosier |
LOL, can you lie and say you are a radiologist? hahah they need one across the channel in saipan. They also need an ultrasound tech which is close!
Here is an easy job, hehehe, I know several good guys that need a wife to get a green card hahahaha! Not a carreer move, but a few easy years in the sun! I live with a nice young eastern european guy, and you get a few years in Hawaii cost free, no ties LMAO!!!!
Take it easy, enjoy the holidays babe. Keep your chin up. You have been emotionally assualted by a PIG. Your field is wide open, and you should have no trouble getting a job. If the bastards say you were terminated, not that you left of your own accord, consider going for the throat!
LOL then after you get the money, come out here marry my freind and we can all move to Hawaii hahah. |

Gypsy, in case you sue these assholes, maybe you should edit the guy's name out of your posts.
All this stuff turns up on google only a few days after being posted -- and if for some reason one of his friends or colleagues does a name search for him, they'll stumble right across it. And since this is all about looking credible and respectable, maybe you better avoid that he mentions this thread during the trial.
Anyway, hope you'll somewhat enjoy your time off! :-)

caro raises an excellent point.
I've gone back and deleted the name of out of my post. I suggest everyone do the same.
Gypsy..I hear you about making friends on the Internet. I get the "blank friggin stare" at least every other day for referring to you guys as "my friends". You know what I say.."damn shame I feel closer to my RO pals than I do to those of you I see face to face! What does that say about all of YOU?"
Hang in there!!

I'm with you too, Gypsy, with all my heart.
I couldn't believe it either when I first read it. This is crazy and sick. But I'm sure that you will soon find a better work with better people. Best of luck if you sue these bastards, this is all they deserve. Or maybe you'll prefer to say "fuck them!" and move on, as life is short and one may prefer spend time with more interesting and enjoyable things. It's your call.
Whatever you do, I agree with Caro about naming no names. |
|
|
| gypsy |
Okay. Thanks caro. I had forgotten about that. And it's not as though that is a common name. I have changed the name to simply "Fat Bastard."

No one should ever be terminated for showing some undies!
Just shouldn't happen.
I saw a guy showin some munga ass crack recently, and let me tell ya what -- that shit is far more traumatizing than seeing a woman's 'ders.
Gypsy, you have a great 4th of Jew-lie (no offense jb), don't freak 'bout da geek, and if I can help please get in touch. I'm no labor lawyer -- hell, I hardly work at all!!
HA! GET IT!
But I'm always here for ya!

Ha! Thanks, nanky. I've got your e-mail address from a long time ago. I just didn't want to bother you over the weekend. I might ask you a few questions...I know you guys get sick of people asking for free advice. As I wrote earlier, I get asked by so many people what this pain or that ache is...and I'm just an x-ray tech.
It's all office politics...those guys are all buddies. It still just shocks me that it even happened.
For the record, I was never serious about taking said undies to work...I was only joking.
As for drinking, I'm sorry to disappoint you guys, but I'm such a loser that I can't even become an alcoholic. I drank a little bit of Jack in my Coke, and it tasted gross...I ended up pouring it out last night...sorry...and it took me several hours to just finish off two strawberry daiquiris.
Can I skip alcholism and jump right into illegal street narcotics? Or does one have to work their way up, so to speak?

Its been twenty years or so Gypsy, but as I remember with crack you can go from middle class first timer right up to full blown street addict in a few months without a lot of effort. LOL In fact, I can pretty much advise anyone that wants to give up marijuana, buy a glass pipe and some rock and in a few weeks no more weed habit LMAO!
I can't really recommnend it as a life choice, but you did ask if you could take the fast track and skip all them other steps!
Happy fourth of July....I will keep my eyes and ears open for x-ray tech position out here in Guam/CNMI area, we are a revolving door of employment oppurtunities. BTW, have you ever used the site, www.medhunters.com? There are oppurtunities around the world for x-ray techs and you could use your education to travel. Post your credentials, tell them what you want and they will even e-mail any time any position that matches your qualifications in any geographic area you specify comes up. It is free for job searchers and I know many that have used it. Posts at all levels of health care come up regularly! |
