It just goes to show that you never know who can help you out, as you pointed in your friendship with someone in a different bureau. You sound like a very nice person, and your new boss was lucky to have you!<br /><br />Have a great weekend yourself!<br /><br />Rgds,<br /><br />RB<br />RB30RB40 Morning LovingKind – Thanks for sharing your story!

I love to read real life stories, especially stories about human relations and experiences. You wrote: "If you don't have time for someone, that someone won't have time for you." It is so true and the opposite is true, too.<br /><br />The first job I got, after I moved to Washington area, was a very stressful one. The office had personnel troubles and I was beginning to develop some health problems after a while. One day when I was walking in the hallway, I saw someone I had met before but didn't know well. I greeted her and stopped to talk her. During conversation I found there was a job opening in a different bureau. I applied... and I got the job! It was a better job and my new boss was great!<br /> <br />You also wrote: "the best relationships are built with NO INTENTION." I agree with you 100%! Interesting that you mentioned karma, as it was something that I had learned and practiced for many years. At the end, I became a firm believer of the Natural Law of Cause and Effect. Every situation in life became easier for me to comprehend. (BTW, karma means volitional deed and karma force, the force created by one's own thought, speech and action.) <br /><br />Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences. Have a good weekend!

They are the worst. Next time you get flaked on, notice how this person is and where they are in their life. You may start feeling sorry for them after that.
