Been almost 6 weeks
Crew: 4 GOOD leads (including[?] moi), 2-3 good carps.
Staff: 3 sales/estimating,1 PM, 1 OM, 1.5-2.5 clerical.
and gus the office dog!
Jobs: window replacement, kitchens, baths, additions, remodels, and smaller stuff.
Pay and bennies are not great but the stress level is enough lower to almost compensate. Plus I’m gonna renegotiate after my “probation” is over.
Best part: FIVE former customers have followed me when they found out I had left old boss!!!
He even gave one an estimate before he told her, so now he just wasted his time! (she wants me!) (TO DO THE WORK YOU CRETINS!!!)
Everyone tells me I look happier!
I feel better!
I haven’t felt like strangling anyone for weeks now!!!
Good thing cause hiding all the bodies was getting tiresome. 🙂
Also I heard from one of the old crew that Jim, the PM from hell, got the boot last week!
Hate to say I told ya so………………..

Glad to hear things are going well. Hope they stay that way.
Always great to hear some good news.
I'm writing a book. I've got the page numbers done, so now I just have to fill in the rest.
Another vote for Quality of life.
Having a following feels sooo good, don't it? Hopfully the new Boss will apprieciate your Pied Piper abilities at the renegotiation.
Congrats!

Good work environment AND good pay! Wheew, he might think he's in a Frank Capra movie.
Congrats on the find, T. Less stress is as good as $$ (but more money is nice too, so good luck with the renegotiations).

We could tell this was coming, measured by your level of dis-satisfaction displayed. Too bad your old boss wasn't as perceptive.
Looking forward to more positive postings from you now, reflective of this new-found attitude.
