    b2b- dont worry what these lurkers have to say.  brush it off, we all know youre an awesome mod and person so who cares what these random people have to say.  the whole point of your post was to vent, and that is what you did. no shame in that.

    HOLY CRAP!  I go away for one day, actually do stuff around the house instead of sitting on the computer, and I come back to this?!?!  WTF mates?! 

    I miss all the good drama. 

    Confession:  Now that it's the holidays and I have hit my mark of making it under 200, I confess that for the next 20 days or so, I refuse to get on a scale or think about my weight.  This is the time of year of good food, and I am going to eat it- and I don't care who knows it.

    I really don't think there's anything in the mod handbook (for lack of a better term) that says you're not allowed to defend yourself.  If you feel you're being wronged, stand up for yourself!

    Yea true. I just didn't care to feed into the BS either :)  It was all ridic. People that don't know me from a hole in the wall giving me crap, not even WR crap. Its like STFU and mind your business.

    I confess that I did have a lovely time at lunch with the babes and then had a nice time watching Xmas shows later. I am trying to get her to not be afraid of Santa haha. I really am going to visit her during xmas break. I will miss her face!

    Speaking of... I have xmas eve off too!!!! HAHA! YAY! So I am off xmas eve thru Jan 2. That is a long time to be off. :)

    Now THAT is a perfectly valid response (or non-response).  I know you didn't intend what you said to be considered a "woe is me" statement, but it could be perceived that way.  And I hate when people take that attitude.  People always have a choice.  Defend yourself or choose to ignore it.  You never have to "take it".  And becoming a mod doesn't mean you have to give up those rights!


    ETA: I don't mean to be preachy.  I know you know this.

    Ya well, I chose to ignore, people like this obviously have nothing better to do than try to get a rise out of someone. I can't give them that satisfaction.  :)   Plus I was going to watch Xmas stuff and read her xmas stories then go to lunch so I actually didn't have time to deal with it. haha. I am all about trying to get her on Santas lap this year :)

    But people do "know you" because you put your business out there for all the world to see.  Just because leebee or whatever doesn't post, doesn't mean she and thousands of others aren't reading what you post.  It's not just your happy little club of posters that you see every day.

    Additionally, it is very, very easy to figure out who a person is based on connecting TK to FB.  For example, I know exactly who you are based on things I've seen on Facebook.  And to be honest, it shouldn't be so difficult to figure out who I am.  Would I post your information?  Absolutely not, but the point is that the info is OUT THERE. 

    And added to leebee's point, I am not a mother, but if I found out that my nanny was posting complaints about me and photos and information about my child, you can bet your bottom dollar you'd be fired in a heartbeat.

    Not once did Leebee post a personal attack on you, but you all lambasted her for merely expressing her opinion.  To be honest, it's hard to read what you say each day and take you seriously.  You post a reply to Every. Single. Post. that's put up on this board, whether you have relevant information to share.  And that you're a mod?  Again, it's hard to take you seriously.

    Basically my point in this long drawn out post is that leebee is completely entitled to her opinion.  You all jumped all over her the way you claimed that myself and Jessh jumped all over you last year.  If you're going to be puppies and rainbows, just be consistent.  And if you're going to complain about your job, in this day and age of it being SO simple to figure out who a person is by a simple google search, don't be surprised when people judge you for it.

    I confess that I am sort of sad that I wasn't here today to watch the DramaLlamaRama unfold, in spite of the fact that I probably would have just kept my mouth shut on this one anyway.

    And I confess that I feel warm and fuzzy that people are requestin anther nightly post form me, teehee.

    I confess that I laughed a little when some of you responded about how everyone on here is nice and there's no bashing.  LOL, it's not always puppies and rainbows.  I'm glad to see Jessica put in her 2 cents.  I was waiting for it, surpised that it took so long. 

    I'm not giving my opinion on this, it's none of my business and I'm late to post b/c I don't work in an office.  I like B2B though and that's all that I need to worry about.
