Since you asked, I can only give you general advice - not sure I understand the specifics of this case. For reference, I'm semi-retired after a long career as a licensed professional in my field. I've been around the block and fought a few wars with disrespectful bosses and co-workers. Here's what I've learned: Generally, your employer either views you as someone he would be worse off if he lost you, or not. If you are viewed the former by your supervisor/boss, you have are much more secure and have leverage if someone else is treating you disrespectfully. That doesn't necessarily mean you complain to management before you've tried to resolve things on your own. But in that case you can deal with the situation from a position of strength. But If you are not viewed that way by management, and especially if your adversary is, your situation is more difficult and you may want to re-evaluate why you still work there. One thing I have learned - life is too short to waste energy on losing battles - but not on battles you can win. Try to look at your situation the way an impartial expert observer would view it. Try to be your own counselor and see where that leads. And, If you have a mentor or wisdom figure in your life, seek their counsel. That could be your pastor or priest, or wife or parent or friend. Having said all that, If this advice doesn't feel right, ignore it and follow your gut instincts. Good luck, wallz. Hope it works out.

I remember a 19 inning with the Pirates. That was rough…

I think the one I remember was on a 4th of July night. I stayed up & watch it all because I was a lot younger in those days. The Braves were down to their last batter w/ 2 outs & they sent a pitcher up to bat. The dude hit a game tying Home run to make it go further into xtra innings.

Freddie Freeman did the most damage in driving in those runs to win.

I guess that’s what happens whenever the entire stadium is behind you. He was struggling with his emotions even today. He probably will feel that way every time he comes to visit. You can tell he wishes he was still a Brave. Even Clayton Kershaw mentioned something song the lines of hoping they aren’t second fiddle to Freddie and that once he becomes comfortable he will see they have a fun clubhouse.

Well I got offered a job at city water plant from gfs brother last Sunday I'm very tempted to take but hate changes after 22 plus yrs...

I was at my last job for 18+ years. Worked my way from bottom to top after 5.
After some very unfortunate circumstances, I left. It hurt and it was very hard and tbh, scary. I’ve been at my current job for 5 years and looking back on it, it’s the best thing to ever happen to me, career wise!
My last job was killing me physically and mentally and I was taking that chit home with me.
Just pray about it, if that’s your thing.
Either way, I hope it all works out for you and your family. Life is hard enough, we damn sure don’t need drama at work, adding to it!
