    Holy shit... I came out on top!

    First thing this morning the new partner calls me into a quick private meeting and started it with: "We're going to make you whole..."

    He then proceeded to add to my vacation time too... he realizes now that I worked while out of town and thinks I deserve at least one more week off before the year is out... lol... okay... done!

    So... Next pay period I'm supposed to have a normal check along w/the 1/2 he snaked from last pay period and I have to take another week off in December (cuz it's gotta be by EOY... works for me). :)

    Thanks for letting me vent, QBNers. <3
