On Wednesday one of my co-workers said he was going to take me out to lunch today due to all the help I've given this week. I planned for this to happen, and I didn't bring anything from home to eat. Now he says he has "family problems" he needs to take care of at home cause of his kid's birthday or something stupid like that. I feel so sabotaged!!!! My day is ruined, cause now I have to go and find lunch for myself, plus now I have to rearrange my plans for next week so he can take me out then instead. I just don't know how to take this! I'm sitting here binging on 2 cups of free popcorn, and my eyes are all watery, and I think I have to pee.

It's a sabotage I tell you!!!!

    You have my dearest sympathy. I'm not really sure how one comes back from the brink like that.

    the world is out to get you. seriously.

    I always pack a small lunch when I'm supposed to be going out- I learned that lesson the hard way a LONG time ago.

    Get your revenge on him. Bake him some cookies but mix some extra strong laxative powder in to them before baking them. evillaugh.gif

    no, he already has this strange habit of having to tuck his shirt into his pants when he's at my desk.... I don't want to risk that getting any worse

    That sounds like sexual harassment to me, OP. Better bone up on your legal options.

    i am SO glad you referred to this person as a co-worker and not a friend, because a FRIEND would never do that.

    you should just expect people to let you down like this person has.

    so sorry to hear of this.

    my thoughts are with you.

    I can supply you with a bottle of pills and some alcohol...sounds like it's time to end it all!
  • Sorry that this happened to you, but life is forever having it 's ups and downs. You should have some fruit or something at work, or even a few protein bars at your desk, this way if it happens again, you have something to nibble on until you get home!
