Gee, I didn't know there were so many of us in the same situation! Misery must love company because I feel better already. Could be that he hasn't been in the office yet today and is not calling me every 5 seconds like he usually does.

Barbara - I think that's part of the problem! He always has to make some kind of negative comment when I'm taking time off. He could take time off if he wanted to, but you know the business would go to hell if he took even 2 hours off - much less a long weekend or god forbid - a whole week!

Kay - I hate being around people like this too. I'm normally a happy upbeat person, and if someone is down, I try to lift their spirits and tell them things aren't as bad as they seem. I usually just shrug him and his attitude off, but like I say, it's just getting to me lately.

Kimmy - OMG! The overly dramatic sigh! I think he has perfected it!

Everyone else, thanks for your support! I've got a great idea. Why don't we all head over to Thursdays? We're sure to find a smile there.
