I could not pass up a 25% off boot sale, especially when I have about three pairs of super cheap kicker boots that I need to retire. So I picked up a pair of black bull-hide and a pair of black cherry goat hide boots, for essentially $150 apiece. Goodyear welt construction so I can have them re-soled when I need to. Nothing exotic this time around...I'm saving up money for some upcoming travel. But these should be good everyday boots which will save wear and tear on my exotics.   |

So I just got off the phone with my former personal secretary from my old office. They just fired her and the receptionist. My secretary had been a legal secretary for over 45 years. She has more experience than everyone in the office combined and that includes all the attorneys and secretaries.
I ran that office for over ten years after my former boss retired. I never had an HR complaint and only ever had one client complain to the Board of County Commissioners. I'm so damn glad I got out, because I guarantee I'd have been canned by now...no way I would put up with this crap. But it still sucks to watch something you built destroyed in less than 90 days.

Sounds like life is often about someone changing things because they can and not because it’s necessary to do so. |

That has to be heartbreaking and infuriating. My heart goes out to everyone at your former office. |

The black cherry looks killer. |

Recently found me a pair of sweet looking vans at work that were actually in my size (usually it's mainly just ladies vans or ones for men with incredibly petite feet)  Little on the snug side, but still incredibly happy with them |
