So I am talking with Ben the Prick while I am going thru my cingular phone bill, whom he happens to work for, and I noticed that they charged me something stupid like 10 cents on something they haven't had. So I mentioned it in passing cause they have charged me little amounts that they should not have before.
He said jokingly that he had 10 cents on the register and he'd bring it home for me if that would make me happy. I said, uh no but that if Cingular did that to a million customers that it would add up. He said again still joking that he'd bring home the dime. I told him that it was not necessary and that calling customer service was not worth my time for 10 cents, lol.
So he hung up, but I didn't cause I was on my hands free and I was busy with the kids. Well he did not know I was there and it couldn't of been more than a minuted before I hear him start making fun of me cause they overcharged me a dime and how I was making such a big deal about it. Then I hear laughter from him and his coworkers. He then goes on to flat out lie and said that I was going on and on about it being a conspiracy and blah, blah, blah.
I then hung up and called him. I said that if he was going to talk smack about me to his coworkers then he really should be smart enough to make sure that I was not on the phone. Well then he was all full of Oh I am sorry, I was just joking, I didn't mean it, it was just Daphene and she knows you...blah, blah, blah.
Like any of that makes a difference???!!!! He was making jokes at my expense. That is just wrong. And I do KNOW his coworkers. Some of them I trained before I left the company! So what he thought it was funny to make me look like a dumb ass??? I just think that there is something really wrong about this. I would NEVER make shit up about him and make fun of him behind his back like that to coworkers. I am just so totally disgusted right now. I feel like I have been betrayed - like it is a breech of trust. He's supposed to be my best friend, right????
I am so freaking angry and hurt, I just do not know what to do.

Scared Shitless today....

So today we went to my friends house for a playdate. She has a daughter, R, who is Sam's age and another daughter, S, who is a few months younger than Kit. So R and Sam get along great and play. Well today we were planning on going outside, so I put sunscreen on Sam and R first and then on Baby Kit. My friend had let the girls in the garage and opened the garage door (didn't tell me that). Well when I thought it was a little too quiet, I went to check on the girls and they were GONE. My freaking heart sank and I felt PANIC flood thru my veins.
I called to friend and she said calmly, "Oh they probably went on the side deck." (Their house is very high. There is an enclosed side deck. But behind the house is a fairly large creek that is cerainly deep enough to cause trouble.) So I ran to the side deck and the girls were not there. So I called back, "NO!" All that kept racing thru my mind is that they found a way to the creek and what if they got in the water... "Oh relax and don't worry, they probably went next door," my friend said eerily calm. "R runs over there all the time." Well I didn't give two figs and a cookie what R does when my Sam is not there but MY Sam was gone! So I sternly said to my friend, "This is NOT acceptable. You need to go inside and look for the girls while I go next door and look. NOW!" And I ran next door. As soon as I got there, I saw that the car was not in the driveway, but the door was open. As I went inside I heard two little voices giggling. "SAMANTHA, R, you get here RIGHT now!" I said firmer than I think I EVER said anything. I'm not sure what I said next, but I had those girls in a line and marching (literally cause I said march and they took me literally...) back to my friends house. I immediately put Sam in time out and let her have it. My friend did the same with R. After a few minutes, Sam came over to me and for the first time, I got a really sincere apology. "Mama, I am so sorry. I won't go outside anymore with out you. I don't want a mean man to get me." "Do you know how that made Mama feel?" I asked. "Sad," Sam answered. "And how else?" I queried further. "Angry and scared," Sam said. "Do not do that EVER again,: I told her. "I won't and I love you Mama," Sam said as she hugged me. Now my friend's daughter only yelled the whole time she was in time out. And once I let Sam out, my friend let R out but never talked about what she did. All R said was that she wanted to go outside and play. I really like my friend, but it is clear that she lets her kid just run amuck. I mean Sam followed R but it was at her house and I truly think she was following R's lead. Sam NEVER does that at home. And after it happened, I KNOW she was sorry. She actually brought it up several times today. How can my friend just think it is acceptable to let her 3 year old run out unsupervised and just assume that it is ok??????? It just blows my mind. Well at least I know that when the girls get bigger, Sam will not be allowed over with out me! |
