Oh no! Darn, I am sorry to hear that its going down hill,...good job on quoteing the rules,....good luck with this one,...I will pray this time! Mojo only worked for a short time,....
the children are the most important item,...not anything else, I hope they remember this.
Is there anyone 'above' them to go to?

There is someone "above" but I'm going to leave going to her as a last resort as she generally has the same views as me which makes me oh so very popular with the others. I think referring to the relevant sections of the QA manual and our written policies will be my best bet...I'll still be unpopular but someone's gotta advocate for the munchkins.
Thanks for the prayers Fillygirl :-)

Good Luck! I will say another little prayer for the kids. Retorical question.....why is it that the most obvious choices(and best) are so hard for some to see?

First, immediately move into a bunker with a 2-year food supply and water storage. Electricity by solar and wind. Ammo...you need lots of ammo for your full-auto 223, or better, 50 cal.
Helps to lock yourself in the bunker with a beautiful member of the opposite sex. To procreate the human race. Chloroform helps.
That is all.

WO! Your prayers is mighty powerful. Got to work and big boss wanted to talk. she said she was becoming concerned about how regimented things had become and did I agree...also, turns out No. 2, in her desire to be seen as competent had overdone things but yesterday actually said she thinks she got it wrong and felt we needed to tone things down for the kids sake (Halleluyah!) also big boss said Number 2 was aware of her inexperience, and was keen to get me on side but found me a bit intimidating. Big boss encouraged me to talk to her about how we could communicate more effectively with each other and suggested I should put it into a jokey context to scare her less...and I was subtly asked to mentor her. Also found out one of my co workers had been stirring up trouble and including me as an ally in her rants. aagh!

Well, it seems to have been okay, but I know there are things in the back groung that the bosses aren't telling us. It may take a day or two to see how things 'settle'.
How is the situation on your end? Do you think it may calm down now or just 'hide' and raise its head again?

I think my ends all good...big boss has stepped in and clued me in. we have a meeting on Monday where she wants me to help get the team flow going. We're aiming to keep the communication going and I've been given a bit of lee way to say what I need to when I think it needs to be said to No. 2. Hope your Job settles and bosses aren't planning anything negative :)

Thanks for the good wishes, Sorry I didn't answer your PM,..but I was up all day on Friday and I didn't get to a PC. I am glad that the children are again the only reason for anything thats done, and I know you will be okay. I work for a contract company to the Feds, they told us last week, that they are not going to bid on the contract this time. It is for 'small, minority owned and operated business only' and they were bought out by a huge DOD contractor in May, so they can't apply for the contract. So, I may be out of work,...I have a long time friend who works for another contract company that is bidding, so maybe Jon can help me if I get layed-off. And that is my problem,...not knowing whats gonna happen for at least 3-4 months. I have started looking for work, as you never know. I will get unemployment if it does go that way.
I want to win the lottery,...but so does everybody else!!
Keep us posted,...
