So.
Dumb suggested that we "change our cooperation".
I will still be getting work from the company, but I think it will be much less. It's just incredible. Dumb is the essence of corporate hell. No humanity, no admission of responsibility, just blaming others.
In all fairness, I finally realized that I'd been angry and surly and rude - why did it take me so long to see it? Of course, now that I DO see it, it's too late. Well, not exactly too late, but the change has already been made, without consulting me. I also found out, thanks to Dumb, that the threats they'd been making, of not paying me unless I did this unpaid work, were baseless. No such rule had ever been made.
And she thinks this is the way to be a manager?
I blasted her. I told her I didn't think she had any human feelings at all. She called me on it. I apologized. Even if I'm right, I shouldn't have said it. Later in the argument, though, I said, "I apologized for saying that you didn't have any human feelings. I hope I don't regret it."
I think I did, in fact, reach some semblance of humanity in Dumb. I don't know.
I may have a little chat with the owner about this. Not that I'm all that interested in returning to the previous arrangement I had with the company. I just want him to know how things are being run.
Or, maybe not. It's not my company and not my problem.
