Suffering through the weekend

5 Stages Of Coping When You Get Shitcanned

Denial, this stage seems to be the current, I really dont think this has all sank in to me sometimes. Sometimes I keep thinking that Dale will reconsider this. But anyone who has met that snapperhead for over 5 mintues knows that will never happen. And more importantly, I dont want this to go back, the situation will never be different when he is in charge. The underlings will be neglected under his wing till they are a problem, and hurt his specific cause. That is now way I want to keep working. With the suppression of any creativity I have from Dale over the past 2 years shows that He would have never offered any creative control to me anyways, we were juts at an impass. Another thing I have to rememebr is that i waited, not just a month or so and got pissed off about it, I waited 2 years. Sometimes through this I wonder what I should have done differently? What 1 thing should I have not done to prevent this situation? If you were to ask Dale and Frank that, it would have been simple, I am not acting like management and not working with them, I am putting people up in arms about things, and that no way to run an organization. What I need to remember here is that they listen to little if any feedback, and even if it is constructive and useful, it will seldom if ever be utilized, because it isn't part of their agenda.

Anger

Bargaining

Depression

Acceptance
