Anarchy / Grrr@work.......
« on: May 20, 2003, 10:54:08 AM »
I have this one customer whose house I clean as well as after I had cleaned for her a little over a year and after they had relocated their doctors office had me start to clean the office as well. Greatttt... good money.. more independence on my behalf, yada yada yada.
 
Anywho.. she is really starting to piss me off. I have been cleaning for the office for almost three yeras now if not just a little over three years. When I started the job they had me come in and give a bid and then the manager at the time told me they were going to do me a favour and put me on the payroll so taxes would get taken out and I wouldn't have to go through all that tax shit.

The manager they had was fired last year for covering up the books and scamming alot money from them. Well since this it seems that the office keeps coming up with new rules and ect ect ect.

They have came with this new idea that I should be at the office by 5:00 pm which is really hard to do especially on the days I clean her house. Sheesh .. I don't get done there until almost 5:00. It never fails, I clean her house Mon and Fri .. Fri just supposing to be a pick up day yeah right! I loose 2 hrs worth of pay at her house on Fri and just have never said anything. I just suck it in and let it ride out the kindness of my heart cause I like the family and the opportunities she has or had given to me when it comes to the office.

I also have a sick mother who I take care of and have missed work a few times when it comes to her house as I have no-one that I know that is close to me that I can just send in to her house and trust to clean.. the office .. well thats no biggie the one person I know and the woman I clean for has come to know covers my ass on it as she works days not nights and this woman I clean for wouldn't just want anyone in her house unless it was me or this other person I know that the woman I clean for came to know because I hired this lady to help me work a few parties the woman I clean for has given.

Well awhile back ago when the woman I clean for made a remark about me missing work and that if I couldn't start being there that she would find someone else to do her house and the office. Gasps!! How can she do that? Hold the office above my head along with her house? Thats just not right.

So I have been making it to work .. now it comes down to a time thing. She wants me at her house at a certain time. Then she decided to dictate time at the office to make sure I am at her house on time. This is just becoming a bunch of bullshit. Now not only do I have to be in the office by 5 but she has also put me a time card! So much for self employment!!

Not only does this irritate the fuck right out of me but it also leaves me with very little time to be home as she isn't the only customer I have during the week during the day time hours.So I sent James my youngest son back to Colorado as his grandfather started messing with my life and turned me into social services once not long ago for improper adult supervision. Well that was when Ed was here before the domestic dispute took place so it was unfounded and I know that James wasn't happy here and told his grandfather tons of bullshit trying to get him to get him back to Colorado so screw it ... I don't have time to play these games his grandfather wants to play nor do I want to put myself at that kind of a risk for social services to show up at my door again as I am sure with my time scheduale and Ed being gone now it would definatly come back founded for improper supervision.

I am also having to calulate how much time I have on my hands to take on another job which the more I play this in my mind leaves me with no time off what so ever. But I have to do something because I have to cover the expensences this domestic situation left me in not that when he was here it made a big diffrence because I was still facing this very same option with him being here ... just what little he was bringing in and contributing did help a little... just not alot.

So if you all have been wondering where I have been that should tell you. Miss you all tho, be around when I can.

Is it good if a vacuum really sucks?

Why is the third hand on the watch called the second hand?

If a word is misspelled in the dictionary, how would we ever know?

If Webster wrote the first dictionary, where did he find the words?

Why do "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean the same thing?

Why do 'tug' boats push their barges?

Why do we sing "Take me out to the ball game" when we are already
there?

If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay you to do it?

Why are there floating devices under plane seats instead of parachutes?

Why do they sterilize the needle used for a lethal injection?

If nothing ever sticks to Teflon, how do they make Teflon STICK to the pan?

If you were to  drive your car at the speed of light, what would happen if you turned on your lights?

You know that indestructible black box on airplanes... WHY can't they make the whole plane of the same substance?

If CON is the opposite of PRO, is CONGRESS the opposite of PROGRESS?

are on the way when you run into one of those invisible cobwebs that string around your eyelashes in public and you spend time looking like an idiot trying to grab ahold of something no-one else can see to get it back off making it look like you have serious problem trying to pluck your eyelashes out.
What are some things you can think of that warmer weather brings that leave you feeling like idiot on public display?

Understanding I work my ass off
nowhere to be found
living life day to day
excuses I have no more
anticipating the next day off
somehow I'll get by
heros come and heros go
everyday brings a new
damn it that man he has to go


Seen this on another board. Thought it was kind of cool. Do your name this using words that describe who you are or the life you live. Doesn't have to rhyme.

I went and seen this atty here in town yesterday and as usual I got the run around on this situation I have with my youngest son. He said as every other atty has said that it sounds as tho I have a case but I may have to get an atty in Colorado yada yada yada. However he did say that if I wanted to as by the sounds of it I could take the biological father to court and he could help me do that, but he couldn't wait till "we would win type of situation" to pay him as I may only wind up with some piece of paper from the courts saying the man would owe me without ever seeing a dime of it in which the case could also get very costly. But I still feel strongly that Colorado, Springs is more responsible and should be held responsible legally for the situation other than my son's father should be, as to me when this case hit the courts 14 yrs ago and my letter was submitted to the courts denying the fact this man had my consent, in which he didn't have my permission written nor verbal let alone did I even have any knowledge that he had taken this child to another state with no legal rights I feel El Paso county should have taken this into consideration, investigated it and set things right, even when they had that opportunity to take this back into the courts after making their final descion with all the reasons pointed out to the courts as to why the first guardian ad litem in the case suggested and submitted evidence into the courts as to the reason he believed that the case needed to reopened and maybe perhaps we wouldn't have such a screwed up mess now.
How is it right that the father of this child can sit back in some other state now that after 14 yrs of heart ache, pain, not even given the opportunity in that 14 yrs to know my son and the anger I have towards Colorado that left me feeling as tho I had been raped of my legal rights and he isn't even held responsible thru the state of Iowa for any kind of support for this child as Colorado held me accountable for because Iowa does not recognize the biological father as being the legal father because of some cliche in the law of Iowa stating because of their being a legal marriadge between me and some other man even tho we hadn't been together for however many yrs before James was born and because of this the law states that James was born into this legal binding marriadge therefore the Iowa laws looks upon James as being a child of this marriadge making the man I was married to even tho we were divorced 6 yrs after the case took place in Colorado Springs the legal father and legally responsible for support unless he would abolish his legal rights and as they told my ex husband when he was here that he would still be responsible for 14 yrs worth of back support for James.
So the man Colorado gave custody too, the same man that raised this child, the same man that denied me access to this child for 14 yrs, the same man that will recieve support payments that Troy the legal father and/or I pay in or money such as my TAXES or let alone Troys taxes that get taken for a child that isn't even according the IRS with the last name he was given thru Colorado a child that even exsist. But yet this man isn't and can't be held responsible for the same kind of support now that I have James because he didn't want him any more cause he couldn't handle him!! All because of some law that basically is protecting him thru the state of Iowa!! It don't make sence to me. How many people do you know that can basically having no legal rights kidnapp a child .. recieve custody, benifits and support, be founded for child abuse in not just Colorado but also now Iowa has founded him for the same abuse Colorado has him founded for and still be protected by the law because some other state didn't do their homework and investigate the situation in the very begining? Would it leave you angry? Cause it sure leaves me with a very bitter taste of anger to think that the system can be that screwed up.
I know some lawsuite can't give me back 14 yrs of my childs life Colorado helped to rob me of, but I would like to see justice served for the 14 yrs of pain and agony I and my family have went thru because of their decision. I think it's only right they should be held responsible for their actions and lack of investigating this situation when all the facts where laid out on the table in front of them.
Where do I go? Suggestions please, cause I really need a an atty that is skilled enough and not some small hick town atty that doesn't have the balls to tell me that he isn't skilled enough to take this case. I need an atty that has a great track record and I shouldn't have to go all the way to Colorado to have to obtain one I wouldn't think. There has to be some one out there somewhere I just don't where to look or I am looking in all the wrong places. Help if you have any information that may help guide me in the right direction., please!! I will be forever grateful. Yours truly.
