As I wrote in another thread...
"Bossman was posturing indeed, but like any dysfunctional relationship, when it's good, it's good and you never think it will be bad again, but when it's bad, you wish you would've done something when it was good. So I am just gonna do my work, enjoy the good money that he pays me, the 5 minute commute, the predictable hours, the 10 units a week, and hope that I have risen above engaging him. Nothing like removing yourself from "the fight". Bullies don't know what to do in that situation. Usually they pick someone else to kick.
After he shot down my idea of being a milling center for other labs, he said I could pursue it. Who knows, maybe since he knows nothing about that, (shoot, neither do I),he will give me my space. It's a shame to waste three idle Rolands. Then it will come down to whether or not I want to "partner" with him on that.
Meanwhile, I'm gonna put my foot in the water of freelance designing, a soft launch. I'll try it out on the computer at work after 5 on Mondays and Tuesdays-when he doesn't come in-is that bad? If it works, I'll jump in and get my own set-up, take scan files, converting through *** when need be, and when the bossman gets his arse on his shoulders again, I will relish telling him what he should do."
