hockeymass 11 Report post Posted March 13, 2012 Looking at 60 degree weather in Boston for the next two weeks, with some days getting up to 70. Considering this time last year we were in the 20s and 30s and digging out of record snowfalls, I'll take it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chadd 916 Report post Posted March 16, 2012 Bittersweet one for me. Our team won the game and the championship series tonight, but I wasn't able to be there for the game. Pretty fitting though as I missed almost half the games for the season. I put up some of my best individual numbers this season and ran a scoring streak from the first game into the playoffs. Now to build on that for next year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hockeymass 11 Report post Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Due to the fire and subsequent blackout in Boston, my office was closed for two days. I used those two days to sleep in and get some stick and puck in. Good times. Edited March 16, 2012 by hockeymass Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thinkingjack 51 Report post Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) Got promoted finally on my team as promised due to my work done so far, and on wednesday they put me coaching new people on the team and current also. Four hours into my shift my Fiancee called and i had to leave on emergency to rush her to the doctor.When i came back the next day my boss yanked me into his office and said "someone went to the director and said they had proof of you cursing out customers (which is a instant dismissal) and being rude unprofessional and repulsive to the new team members for you entire 8 hour shift, so you're un promoted, and now have to sit by my desk to watch you"I said "no way dude i would have been fired if i did that, and i wasnt here for 8 hours! and did he provide the proof? no? and they still believed him!?"so i took my boss to my computer and showed him a conversation of the person who went and said that about me to the boss, and he said all the same exact things on our private chat, which i never responded to since i dont want to lose my job. and showed him the part where he said he was going to ruin me and my jobBoss took copies of the chat, escalated it, and dude got fired yesterday morning.Honesty wins. Yet again. Edited March 22, 2012 by Thinkingjack Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thinkingjack 51 Report post Posted March 22, 2012 i am not repromoted but i dont really care about the promotion at this point anymore since i've been contemplating switching and finishing the degree in medical i was going for so i think it's time to step into that field and just go from there and get a career and better pay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
