I read this this morning and didn't know exactly how to respond.  It did make me wonder if I had ever been a "bitch on wheels".  Probably so.

Wow, you certainly gave Lew the dressing down he deserved, and made him go to the loo.

This warmed my heart to read - how you laid into him at the meeting. Good going! He deserved it.

some things are so important a person has to fight for what is right and fair. I never knew until Wiley told me that my eyes flash danger when I really mean business...he says they speak so that no one wants to hear what my problem is. LOL What a great weapon I never knew that I had.

Re: CCT

This happened in '91-'92 - and there was quite a bit going on then about women's work, pay equality, etc. - especially in the university environment. My boss at the time was a con artist, and the whole department imploded because of his sleight-of-hand (stealing all the credit after folks from other universities did the work on a joint project). Every professional staff member of that department ended up retiring, transferring out or going back to the classroom.

Vengance is sweet, but the price paid is sometimes a different matter. Pat if only it had been a few decades later you would have made big time.

That's great you were able to get something done about Jack. One has to be forceful at times when it comes to the workplace. Otherwise, other forceful people will walk all over oneself.
