    You have my sincerest sympathies.. I went through that crap a few years back.. Summary politics didn't give me a promotion I deserved..

    I'm planning to be my own boss soon enough..Its a headache in its own right cause I've interned and worked with a couple of designers but I'll also learn on how to better handle my employees..


    If going back to an old job is way to go, then by all means, do it...Touching base with a former employment is a good way to move ahead....


    Oh you can also conveniently get rid of your boss if you'd like that!

    I know how you feel, though my boss is probably less neurotic than yours, he's still a dick at times. If anything goes wrong, it is NEVER his fault. Somehow the blame magically lies on someone else. One time we changed how we did a plate but no one told me, so he starts growling at me, saying that I was there when he told everyone. When I asked him what day that was it turned out to be my day off. I could go on, but to summarize: he has poor communication skills. :/

    Oh, and he likes hiring girls who he will get along with at first and like then after a month or two start not liking so much to eventually causing them to quit or fire/lay them off. Happened twice. For the most part I suspect it was because neither of them would sleep with him.

    Thankfully my job is pretty secure, though I get paid way less than I should. I am well liked and been working there since it opened.

    Just this morning, my mom ranted on about how my dad had walked a mile and a half down to a railstation to work as a dishwasher in Orinda (or however you spell the name of that city), and would take the same route back home late at night, night after night. She wants me to get a job, but I've somehow convinced myself that no one wants to hire me.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
