No worries AzRael. I was kinda kidding in a Gilda Radner sort of way!
There is nothing worse than not geeting the promotion, except when the boss is so stupid to say well you didn't get and there is no reason why. Looks like the boss may have reached his level of incompetence. Seems he could use some training in personel management and maybe some tact.
There are better jobs out there I'm sure... the trick is finding them. And looking for work really sux.
In about 25 years I've had about 18+ jobs and I hate the interview process!
