    I'm quiting. I'm about to call him. The shitty part is that my mom works there too as a Dental Hygientist. She wasn't there yesterday though, but she's been there for 10+ years. I've known him since I was 13-14.

    I never think it is acceptable to mention someones weight, even if it is a family member.It's not like I'm a 600 pound woman trapped in a bed.

    Courtney-- I cannot BELIEVE someone would ever have the nerve to do that. That's horrible and I'm sorry that you still have to go to that office. I hope that you find a terrific new job soon!

    EDIT: Good for you! Way to stand up and quit. No one should be treated that way.

    You <em>are</em> normal. Your boss is not. That's strange that he would even say any of those things. You were being professional, and he was not -- bringing up boyfriends, breakups, and physical appearances into a discussion about coworker tension and your future at your job (or the opposite, in this case). That's really inappropriate, IMHO. And to add that he has apparently talked about physical appearance a lot with your other coworker, so much so that she's dieted because of it ... super inappropriate.

    I also don't understand why he said it at all. I don't think weight would ever be something an HR person would consider when making a hiring decisions.

    Courtney, I am ashamed of your boss. I can't believe that he thought that anything he said was appropriate in handling that situation. I'm so sorry that you had to listen to his non-sensical BS. 
     
    I flame my FI's employer. If there is an available bonus structure which is based solely on production (which is in writing), and all of those parameters are either met or exceeded, you pay what the individual qualifies for. When you issue a check separate from payroll a week late for HALF the amount with no explaination as to WHY the individual didn't qualify for the entire bonus, don't be surprised when your employees question the amounts. Don't act like they should be lucky to get one, honor the bous plan that YOU established and follow through. Don't be effing cowards and not explain yourselves. The reason the bonus is there is to spark production. They produce the results, you reward it. If you aren't going to reward it as you say that you will, don't advertise a bonus plan.

    FFS.

I don't know how I would have held it together as long as you did. I'm glad that you are standing up and denouncing his behavior by quitting. I truly hope that you have a wonderful day today :)

    My flame is so petty of me... I flame my 2 BM's that have yet to say anything to me about the "Will you be my bridesmaid" cards that I sent them. I understand that maybe you are busy and I never said "call me" on them.. but really? Everyone else called immediately when they got them on Wednesday (one of whom lives in North Carolina) so I know that you two have received yours. I know I am being so ridiculous, but I would just really appreciate a "Hey, I got and loved your card" text/call. BOO.

    I flame our sales manager. 
    I just told him how where the jam was in the copier that I was elbow deep in toner yesterday fixing and he just opens and shuts every thing "oh, it's broke" and walks off to go call his kid on the phone. Seriously, did I not just tell you to take out the paper tray and the peice is between the 2 white rollers.

    1. I just told you where it was so you culd fix because It's this tiny peice of paper and I couldn't get it out. I'm also not trained on equipment.

    2. Your kid is in college FFS. You don't have to call them every day to figure out "whats going on with thier school" They're adults. Let them live like it instead of depending on daddy to tackle our issues for us.

    I would give them until after the weekend--J and I go days at a time without checking our mail. Unless I'm expecting something, I tend to forget since it is typically just bills. And BOOO for bills--checking the mail (for me anyway) can get kinda depressing! They'll be pleasantly surprised when they do get them, though! They were super cute!

    We thought that too, but for our shower. FI, FI's roommate, and one of my friend's never got an invite. They were never returned either. So who knows were they are. Plus when we sent our wedding invites some people got them the next day while others even closer to us got it 6 days later! I would just see if they something soon if not you may want to ask them about it.

    True and not true on this.  Yes, I agree that people have to make a living.  My dad is self-employed, so I know how that goes.  However, many vendors charge a completely different price if they find out its for a wedding versus a party or other event.   I'm sorry, but that is wrong.  But you are right -- its our perrogative.  It's just unfortunate that some vendors do play the system that way.  Thank god for TK though because we can fill each other in on who those vendors are and also who the great ones are!  That's just my 2 cents. :)

    This is true, and I believe that it is because of the quality of the product that they are supplying. I don't demand extreme perfection in a birthday cake, but my wedding cake is much more intricate and deservedly so. For flowers, it is similar to suppliers jacking up the price of roses near and on Valentines Day (I do realize that supply and demand also plays a role here), and they capitalize on it. I would too! Anyone can throw a bouquet or arrangement together, but what kind of quality are you looking for? It takes much longer to ensure that level of perfection  for a wedding than if you are just having a 3 year old's birthday party. Most of the wedding vendors pride themselves on that extra attention to detail, and choose to increase the price as a result--because it involves more work for them. You get what you pay for...and I am okay with paying extra for that quality.

    This times infinity.  So, if you want it cheap, you may not get a whole lot of quality.  My real point was:  if you want to be cheap, go ahead but don't expect the vendor to give away their services for free.  And you say true and not true, but you cannot expect a good artist to just give away their stuff.  It's the reason that places like Target and Neiman's exists.  Do I expect my $12 Target purse to last as long as a Louis Vuitton?  Nope.  If you don't like that, well, I'm sorry.  That's the way it is and you can either suck it up and accept it and find vendors that you like for their quality and price or you can go to the JP.

    Wow, really? Hmm, I think you just made a molehill into a mountain.  I DO accept it -- that's why I'm paying for the goods and services and NOT using the vendors who do upcharge for the exact same product simply because its a wedding and not a corporate event or what have you.  I'm just saying that when <em>one</em> vendor gives the <em>exact same product</em> (lets say identical table linens) and upcharges because it's a wedding, that's not right.  And I don't use those vendors and therefore I don't really worry about it. I do understand why different vendors are at different price points, and that was not at all what my initial comment was regarding.  You do get what you pay for generally, and you should expect more quality from a $5,000 photographer than from an $800 photographer.  There is no question about that.   If you expect $5,000 quality from an $800 photographer, you'd be very, very disappointed.

     That's all I was saying -- wasn't arguing with anyone, just giving my two cents on how I view it.

    I'm with Julie on this one.
    But think about it with a DJ for example, if they're working a corporate event there's not so much planning involved with it. They say "we're going to hire you don't play explicit music, we're going to have a recognition at this time and a slideshow at this time." Probably done.
    With a wedding, there's first dance songs, spotlight songs and the like, not to mention still taking the B&gs request that whatever style music be played or not played. Then there's still that possibility that they're going to get a "bride freaking out phone call" and have to handle that.
    There is a lot more work that can go into the event being a wedding vs. a corporate and they should be compensated fairly for it. (even tablecloth renters can get multiple bride-freaking-out phone calls)

    I think most people want a middle ground between the JoP and the "Louis Vuitton" wedding vendors, though. And, just in my experience, that is hard to find.

    I think a lot of girls get into wedding planning, like I did, thinking they're going to find a way to have the wedding with all the extras (DJ, full bar, etc) for a reasonable cost by researching and finding lower-priced vendors, really doing their homework and getting deals. And I'm probably not the only one who ended up spending more than I'd planned.

    It's not hard to find a really great, high-quality (and therefore higher cost) photographer, cake baker, etc. It's hard to find a middle-of-the-road one. At least, it was for me. (If I'd had these boards when I started planning, I probably would've had an easier time).

    And that's perfectly okay to disagree with me! :)  I think its perfectly fine for people to have different opinons as long as they are respectful about it.  And I truly do get the points you are making and I do agree with what you are saying.  I was incorrect to put "services" in my original post and that was my fault.  Really what I was trying to say involved products.  For another example, if I order a 2-tiered chocolate cake for my grandma's big 85th birthday bash and was quoted $200 for it and if when I ordered the<u> exact</u> same cake for my wedding reception I was charged $400, to me personally that does not seem right.  To me, when I purchase a product, I expect a certain quality;  I don't expect the quality on that exact same product to vary depending on what it's being used for.  I expect it to be consistent no matter what.  That's just how I personally feel about it.  But as was said earlier -- it is what it is, whether you agree with it or disagree, and you either choose to spend the money or you choose to not.    Thanks for your post :)

    I agree and also think that it was the generalization of the word 'products' that made your initial post very confusing. If it were a more specific vendor--like the linen provider, my post would have been condensed from a paragraph to, "yeah, I agree, that sucks."
    It just helps to be more concise sometimes. A mountain may have unnecessarily been made out of a molehill due to lack of information/examples is all I mean. No harm done :)

    And this is a little bit late and completely unrelated, but where the heck is Wendi?! Come on out, gurlfrand.

    Yeah, I'm not getting anything remotely like that and I also wouldn't pay $200 for a birthday cake.  Betty Crocker is for birthday's, not weddings.  If you really feel that you're being scammed by the cost of the cake, then make it yourself.  Plain and simple.

    [QUOTE]I agree and also think that it was the generalization of the word 'products' that made your initial post very confusing. If it were a more specific vendor--like the linen provider, my post would have been condensed from a paragraph to, "yeah, I agree, that sucks." It just helps to be more concise sometimes.

    Sorry I was having Sangria with my photog tonight.

    For the record, I'd use Duncan Hines.

    LOL I hate box cake but had a chocolate craving so bad the other day.  I've tried to cut gluten out as much as possible to see if that's something I'm allergic to, so I picked up a box of gluten-free cake mix (I think it's Duncan HInes?).  Man that stuff is actually REALLY good!

    I'm telling you... Duncan /> Betty.

    It's the pudding they put in it to give it that moistness.

    this has nothing to do with anything on here but I flame the fact that I cant have magic powers like hermione granger or sabrina the teenage witch so that I could zap everything in my house and it would pack itself! Also, I would always have the perfect hair, make up, and clothes on.

    Yes this was completely meant to be a lighthearted, silly flame to lighten the mood :)
