So, what happened... The company I am working for is going through some financial problems, not really unusual considering how wonderful our economies seem to be.. Anyway, a manager (known as Bulldog) called me after a 2 week vacation, not to ask me how my day was.. Oh no, to literally scream at me for not doing anything about the company's financial woes.. Mind you, he knows very well I've been running around, short of moving heaven and earth to get a sale going that should more than cover the amount owed to the bank, but I suppose Bulldog wanted to show, as most dogs do, to show who is boss.. And what do dogs do to show their dominance? Growl and show off their teeth, well this is his way, telephone style..
Of course, like most canines, you cannot really reason with them. Bulldog went on and on, screaming and threatening and yelling. Now, its one thing to scream, but to accuse and threaten.. Honey, that's a whole other ball game. After the line got cut off (blessing in disguise?), he called me back 2 hours later, while I am picking up my son from school, again screaming and then threatening to auction off the property I was almost ready to sell (in fact all documents are ready this week for signing) and not giving any residue to the company - this was not called for at all..
What does a pissed off woman like me do? As they say, "Hell hath no fury as a woman scorned" and what does this scorned woman do - speak to the superior offices at that bank and told them what Bulldog said.. Basically it was a mini victory for me as they also agreed that Bulldog was out of line and even though our company has financial problems, as long as we are doing something about the problem, that's what matters.. I explained that we are doing something but there's a way of speaking to a long-standing customer like our organization and one would expect a top official to be more civil.. Haha!
Anyway, more updates to followed with I'm sure, another screaming phone call..
