good news/bad news

good news first - my little girl is awesome.  last night she slept from 8pm to 7:30 am with just two 10 minute feedings in between!  she is amazing, such a great disposition and so easy, i'm blessed!

bad news - my jerk of a boss told me yesterday that I can't come back part-time.  he told me I could in December, but now realizes since i've been gone that he wants me back full-time.  he thinks that since TJ is being laid off we don't have many options, which he is right in a way.  neither of us feel comfortable with me not going back until TJ has been hired somewhere else, which we hope will be by August.  it sucks so much. i'm still trying to get him to agree to a part-time schedule, but i'm just devastated.  Crying

first he tells me he will pay me during my leave and then decides not to, now this.  i wish him a bad bout of diarrhea!

Re: good news/bad news

  • First, YAY for having an awesome little girl! and WTG Josie for sleeping like a champ! That is awesome and I'm sure you got some much needed sleep!

    Second, your boss is a tool and I don't think I like him at all. I'm sorry he's being such a jerk and is going back on his word. Again. Hopefully you can find something else and you don't have to go back there at all. 

  • What a jerk. I hope everything works out for you guys. But yay, you have a great baby!!
  • agreed about the doucheyness.  Though i'm going to use my new insult....he's an enema-hose (because that's way worse than a douchebag)

    lots of vibes for you to find something else!!

  • Ugh...he sucks!  I would be looking for something new...He might know that you HAVE to work, but he doesn't seem to be considering that he could lose you to someone else. 

    But Josie gets a big "Rock On" for sleeping like a rockstar.  I hope I am as lucky!  She is such a cutie, and I just CANNOT believe she is six weeks old already!  Where has the time gone?

  • I'm so happy that Josie is such a good girl!

    But your boss.. i'm not so much a fan of! I kind of want to kick him!  I'm sorry he's such an inconsiderate a$$! Between the leave pay and now this it's really messed up.

  • Your boss is a douche with a control problem.
  • I'm sorry your boss is being so horrible. :-( Try to think of it as temporary.. till TJ can find something. Maybe it'll be something so great, that you can stay home with your peanut fulltime! Or untill you can find someone willing to give you something parttime.

  • Boooo. Everything happens for a reason though. Maybe this is a sign that all of those long nights and every extra hour you put in for him just weren't worth it. Time to moooove on.

    Josie is precious!! What a good girl to sleep through the night! She's just so wonderful!

  • He's being a manipulative bastard.  I wish him more than just a bad bout of diarrhea.

    But yay for Josie!  She looks so sweet sleeping and I love her chubby chin.

  • your boss is a bonehead. i'm sorry, jen!

    ::kicks boss in shins over and over again::

  • Josie is my kind of baby :)

    I love babies that like to sleep. lol

    I am sorry about your  boss.  He is such an a$shole!!!! what's wrong with him?  Keep looking for another job.  You might be able to find one where you make the same wages and work less hours.
