mars must be wreaking havoc or something. or perhaps it's just the mercury retrograde.

i'm feeling a bit funky today...i feel like fighting everyone at work.

a non-japanese human resources guy from our hq in the east coast, flew in to our humble office to discuss "sexual harassment in the workplace".

he was not boring. and he did not bring with him, the accompanying boring video. i was pleased.

after an hour and a half of defining "harassment", i felt empowered and strangely enthusiastic for having found an ally in hr-guy.

i'd realized that i shouldn't be feeling guilty for having approached gm with my problems. what hr-guy said today, blew all of that "i'm untouchable" crap out the window. my problems are legitimate, and if necessary, i can now take the appropriate actions for resolution.

boss2 has been avoiding me completely. perhaps he is...afraid? if he starts to act up again though, i know now who to turn to...
