But that's just it Nibbs. This one doesn't look like it's going to work out. After getting through 2 CPs without calling in, I probably am going to have to call in to work for the first time- and I'm not even going to be in FL!:cry: :( :cry:

well...is it bad to call in? Does it get points against yourself? I know it stinks. You'd think Disney would be able to work with you on this. Is there no close confidant that is a higher up that would help you? Or do you have any friends down there who would maybe take your shifts?

Still pink over me. It just seems like it's just sitting here. Not moving at all.

Still no progress with your schedule, Jo?
Is no one getting back to you?
Click to expand...

Not really. I talked to people from scheduling this morning. They said it doesn't look like they can do anything with the schedule, since it was already posted. So I am going to try to give 4 of the 5 days away (there is one that I know NOBODY would take). And I am also trying to call a manager to see if they can do anything. But it might be too late for that. As I said to Nibbs, after getting through 2 CPs without calling in once, it looks like I am going to have to call in next week for the first time- and I won't even be in FL for it.:cry: :( :cry:

Yeah, you get points for calling in. And the worst part is I thought I had gotten it taken care of when I called scheduling to get all availability removed. But it turns out it was only removed from May 26th on.

Uh oh, I just thought of something. I may have to go through all this again next week!:cry: :cry: :cry:

You're right. They really do need to talk. I think it would help them a lot too. But he hasn't 100% come out to them...but they know he is. If that makes sense. Like he's got a boyfriend right now and everything. So they know...they just haven't really been told.

Kind of a mess.
Time Nibblies. . .it'll take time.

And me...yeah, I can talk about it. Did I know. Yeah...I guess I did. My brother always played with me when we were kids...Barbies and he dressed up in my dance costumes and stuff. When he was in his younger teens my parents would constantly find gay on the computers. I even found it on my computer a few times. And I know I didn't look at it. So, I did know...it's just the acceptance part of well...maybe he's just curious. But it never really turns out that way.

You're right. It doesn't.
When it comes down to it you'll accept him because you love him.

((HUGS)) Jo.
It will be behind you soon.
Once you get there, maybe you can talk to someone in person who can help you sort it out.

And I do accept him because I love him...yeah...it's a little strange...but I'm accepting of it because I know I can't change it.

But I don't arrive until Wed. I'm scheduled to work on Sunday and Monday. I don't think I'm going to be able to get rid of those.

I understand that.
What I'm saying is that maybe you can talk to someone who will acknowledge that mistakes were made and the call-outs shouldn't count against you.

well...see...it's kind of difficult...

But it turns out my brother is gay. And my mom is not reacting to this news very well. She's suspected it since he was a kid...but it's still not helping her. And I want to be able to help her...but I just don't know how to do it. I'm more or less ok with it. I mean it sucks not ever getting to have a sister in law...but I just want my brother to be happy in his life. So I'm really doing ok with the whole thing...but my mom is defintely not...matter of fact, she made a very inappropriate comment the other day about the fact that the Chippendale dancers are coming to town and my dad jokingly asked if she wanted to go...she said no...but under her breath she said something about maybe my dad could take my brother. My brother heard her and got really upset...and i would have too...that was totally out of line for her to say.

I just really don't know what to do. I told her she should go see a therapist...but she doesn't really want to do that...she went for a few sessions a while back, but hasn't really ever gone back. I still think she needs to deal with some issues with it though. I just don't know.

I can post some of it. . .maybe.
Like I said, I don't want to drive you guys nuts.
I really am proud of it though.

And digital scrapbooking is easy and tons of fun!
You'll love it!

Nibbles- This is tough for me to type because I am going through something right now with my oldest son (no he isn't gay. at least not that I know of) and I had to ask the pastor at the church I work at what to do. He said it is very hard to be a mom. Yes you love your son but he is an adult now and I need to "take the kite string and pass it to God and Trust God to handle this problem his way" Not mine. I need to pray and trust. It is very hard to let go and let God. I cry every time I think what my son might be doing. I don't even know if he is guilty or not.
I hope this might help you.



Dot I forgot I wanted to respond to your post. You won't bore me I love seeing things like that and hearing about it.

Thanks Susan...that is helpful. This will all get sorted out...it's just a big mess that's not hitting the complete surface right now and I'm trying to be ready when it does.
