    It sucks that people are so quick to escalate, especially when they’re the ones misunderstanding the situation. Surely they were apologetic once it was explained. Ha.

    ‘room at the office’? You sleep at your office?

      Yeah, you’d hope they’d be sorry about it. But, no. My boss had a phone conversation with their boss and then we discussed it this morning. They’re on their toes, so we’re going to continue like we have been until everything blows over. Short, guarded and professional.

      Yeah, I got promoted from one region to the other, 4 hours away. I bought a decent home a few years ago with a really good interest rate and the value is up about 75k. I’d rather not sell it. Which means I’m living in a room on our footprint. It’s not unheard of in our industry, so much so that we even have a name for it; “Geo Bachelor”.
