Things resolving; hacker's "last day"; I'm off my tirade and hey, we're still up!

[Pam]

Sorry for the delay folks, but thanks to an unscrupulous co-worker who hacked my email at my lovely new job, I had to go around to all the websites I own and change my passwords. It seems as though he feels justified to read my private PDBNET emails, because I committed the horrible crime of asking someone other than his boss when I could expect the 2 past due paychecks the company owes me, yaddy yaddy..... This guy is so :baby: he openly admitted to it in front of several people, with no shame at all for reading my private emails. Guess he's not aware of that law making it a felony to hack emails....Shame on me for being so selfish and wanting my paychecks!:tsktsk:


Long, (ugly) story. Welcome back to the Corporate Work World Pam! It seems as though my guides want me to learn how to deal with people who are fixated on the love of money, and still retain my own dignity.

Anyway, the password change didn't go over to well. To top it off, I was verbally "spanked" by a Vbulletin support (ahem) "professional". Apparently I insulted him when I used the term "bump up" (as in bump up the priority) because his response was:



I don't know what you mean by "bump this up". We aren't like our competitor in that we hire knowledgable professionals so we only need one level of support, and as luck would have it, you wound up with the guy who does about 80% of the installs. I promise you that up until this point, I had been using words like "please" and "thank you" and "I'm sorry, that didn't work either." I pay $30.00 a year for the privalage of this level of "customer support" and being spoken to in this manner. Luckily for me (and for you? :) ) , I fixed it myself.

Pray for me people, as I want to strangle a few people right now, at my job, and at VBulletin.

Anyone know of a central Illinois company who needs a good Web Shopping cart designer? (A company that has enough working capital to meet payroll that is and a strong email privacy policy?) Anyone know of a good discussion board software company, that doesn't sharped tongue trolls working in their support department? I'm open to suggestion :)

Thanks for letting me vent. I promise I'll get "spiritual" about all this at some point....

[Gail]

Anyway.....nice to see us back up again. Better to vent than hold it in and expload. :eek:

Prayers the perfect job for you turns up now that you have had practice with this defective one. What a let down when it sounded like such a good opportunity. :( :musicnote :musicnote :musicnote

[Sabine]

Sorry you had to go through all of that Pam :( Thanks for all your hard work and efforts to get us back up :love:

[maria V]

Oh Pam...I think you already know exactly what I want to say about this situation... :rolleyes:

Hacking your emails...another sneaky, deceptive tactic pulled by a man of "power" in your life.

This Mars return is really throwing curveballs at you. :eek:

Hang in there. Are you starting to feel like Wonder Woman yet?

Maria :love:

[Pam]

Thank you everyone! I'm sorry to be so negative. I'll get it over, really I will! I refuse to sink to their level. I am trying to take the high road, I really am. I guess you're right Gail, better to vent it all here, then to blow up at someone at work and give them ammunition against me.

Can I tell you? MARIA V PREDICTED ALL OF THIS EARLY THIS SUMMER!

I asked her to help me pick a date to launch a business website, and she told me lots of thing, but she warned me sternly about early October. She warned me about issues with men, father figures, money and my own personal power, just to name the central features.

Since then, on Oct 5, my father called ME, and we had words on the phone over money, and has told me that he will speak to me "any G_d D__m way he pleases" and I hung up on him and I really don't care if I ever speak to him again, if that's the way he's going to treat me.

At work, it's an unbelievable soap opera. I'm caught inbetween the good guys and the bad guys. Somebody please remind me again why I leave my beautiful 4 year old son and go to work for someone else?......


She nailed it. Power trips. My "father". Men. Money. She is GOOD! :love:

[CarolynB]

:love: (((Pam))) - glad we're back up, but very sorry you're having such a tough time with men and money.

[starlasue]

((((((Pam))))))

So glad you got us up and running again. It once again shows your dedication and care!

Sorry for all the frustrations and betrayal you are facing right now. I think most of us can relate in one way or another! Hang in there, it will get better. Sending you lots of prayers, white light and angels to guide you through these days of struggle. :musicnote :musicnote :musicnote

[Dawn]

:musicnote:love:(((((((PAM)))))))):love: :musicnote

Surrounding you with love and prayers during this frustrating time. Hope it gets better soon. Hang in there!

And go ahead...vent away! :thumbsup:

[Tinamator]

((((((((((Pam))))))))))))))

Sending you lots of hugs! I will light a candle and send positive light your way!

It took the last couple of days of Friends being down for me to realize just how much I appreciate this website.....I sure missed it! One time, out of desperation, I think I mistyped the address as "friendscommunity".....and, it's a matchmaking website! lol.

Anyway, I'm glad we are back. And it's all thanks to Pam! :-)

Namaste'

Tina

I am so sorry you had to go thru this :(

[Irishrose]

I told you that it would all come out in the wash - and it will, honest.

But what I REALLY wanted to say to you was what a bunch of KNOTHEADS,
but I changed my mind... :D

You will be just fine. Remember their behavior is their problem.

[PBPan]

:musicnote (((Pam)))

I'm sorry you had to go through that how frusterating!!

Sending white light your way!!

Thank you for your dillengence to get the board back up :jumper:

Prayers and white light for the jerks that did this and may they receive alternative forms of enlightenment so that they may learn to treat others better. :musicnote

[Ancestor]

Pam so sorry that had to happen to you. Hope that you feel better now that you vented some and I shall send white light to you to help cleanse you if you need to be. Again I am sorry he did that to you.:candle:

[marcia]

I wondered what the the heck was up, but uncharacteristically chose not to send you an email about it, thinking it would come to light in time.
well, I think on some level you may have been expecting this in one form or another.
hopefully it is just a little debris on the path. kick it out of your way
:P and forge on!

love,
Marcia

[Pam]

Thank you all for your support! IrishRose, you're right, "the wash" has begun and I learned yesterday, that it was the email hacker's "last day". I didn't ask why, but I think I know, because his departure was very sudden. I know he had no intentions of leaving the company. Where ever he goes, I wish him luck, and I send prayers out that he won't repeat such foolishness again.

Marcia, you are 100% right. Kick out of my way. Kick it to the curb!

And Megan, thank you! I thought of you yesterday, because one of the younger 20-somethings came over to me, and while he was sympathizing with me, he called me "Dude" - it made me feel so loved! :love: Even the Vbulletin guy apologized.

Thank you for listening and letting me vent. Being able to vent here, helped me keep my cool at work, where several young people are looking to me to help sort out all this craziness :)

....I'm off to go make backups of our data base...just in case ;)

[Dawn]

he called me "Dude" - it made me feel so loved! :love:

ahh, a definite sign of affection amongst the younger crowd:D

Glad to hear things are looking up, Pam!:thumbsup:

:cool:We always knew you were, like, one totally AWESOME dudette:love:

[Tanner2]

I've been working a long time and usually there is karma in the work force. What goes around eventually does come around if you have the option of waiting it out. This guy really had some issues, and I doubt they were just towards you. Glad he's gone, and now I hope you can enjoy your job. :thumbsup:

[Jude]

Now this is some nice news to wake up to! :) Glad to hear that things are working out. :thumbsup:

[gignyy]

:musicnote :musicnote (((PAM))) :musicnote :musicnote People HAVE GOT to learn that you have WAY TO MANY friends & prayers coming your way to "knock you down." Keep going, girl :thumbsup:

[OtherSideTemp]

Pam, you're an awesome person. Things will have to get better. Don't let the ignorance/arrogance of other people deter you from whatever goals you have set for yourself.

:)

[Amanda]

((((((Pam))))))) So glad things are back up and glad things are starting to look up! I hate that this all happened to you!
Adding my prayers for strength and for the white light to aid and protect you.

:love:

[Laura]

[Jayell]
