We just got home from Angi's son's wedding, and had a wonderful time.
We stayed over in the historic Manila Hotel, and had a good meal and party last night and then a wonderful buffet this morning. It went on my credit card, but I don't care .
Then why am I angry tonite?
Well, partly because I didn't sleep well last night, and partly because I am coming down with a bad chest cold and coughing. And partly because my step son is so nice...but today he fired the maids again, because they went home for a sick child, and took two days off...
REasonable, yes...but while we were gone, no one fed the dogs, and the wash was not done for three days...he moved the wash machine to upstairs and there is not enough water pressure.
So yes, he had justification to fire the maids...but that leaves our cook to do all the work. Not to mention that poor people working for two dollars a day for rich people who have five computers and bought a 700 dollar air conditioner for the meeting room, and who just spent 80 dollars on a night out, well, I get sick at heart.

And tonite, they have the Christmas party...and we were told" They are waiting for you"...except we are eating already, and that means more time for the poor people to wait to eat...then we get over there, and voila, first prayer and sermon and silly games then you can eat...
So I left and said I wasn't into prayer...and then LOLO insisted I go (he's there to give money and presents to all concerned...Daddy Warbucks)...
But I said I was sick and begged off....

Alas, I have a temper and say what I feel, hurt feelings and then don't hold a grudge. They are passive aggressive, and sweety nicy to your face then screw you big time...I've worked with too many nurses who were the same way, and you know what? most claimed to be "christian"...it's enough to make you an athiest...



Why not eat and games at the same time? Yes, they make sure our employees are their cult or a similar strict protestant religion, but the construction workers are subcontracted.
So I walked out and said I was not good for prayer...
