Mine, too. I love it when I went to the store today and saw the HR hag of my previous job there, and I manage not to run her over with my shopping cart. She eventually saw and recognized me, and she looked a hot mess. (read that as: Mrs. Roper looked SEXY compared to her) She asked me about my new job, etc. and I was able to tell her, truthfully, that I love my job, it makes me feel competent, it gives me a sense of accomplishment, and I love going to work every day. She smiled and said that it was good that I found my niche again. I asked about the company and how things were going, and also told her that I had just talked to the owner's brother 3 hours before I saw her, which was true. I guess she figured that he had spilled all the beans to me, so she told me of all the pitfalls, the layoffs, the people who had been there for more than 15 years or more who just up and quit, the rush to get someone to lease part of the building to make the rent payments. It was delicious to just stand there and listen, nodding, and then have her say, "But I guess you knew all that already, huh?" I just smiled and said, "Um, no, he just told me about his daughter graduating college this spring." She looked like she swallowed a bug, because she's so big on corporate information being confidential. LOL... Oh... how I do love a good come-uppance.
