STAGE 3:
DAY 5:

Actually I think I wrote a bit too early yesterday. I forgot my keys back in the office, and returned to pick it up, met my boss on my way back out, he did give me a small hint of a pay rise and a bonus few days back, but I wanted to know the numbers. I have heard it before, but nothing significant showed up on my account. This time I am not letting it go so easily. So, he says that he can't give me a pay rise since he is not the one deciding it, but he can raise my bonus for now. Not settling for it, its a temporary solution for a permenant problem. I conveyed my gratitude for the bonus but I want a significant pay raise. I want to live more comfortably. I want the finer things in life.
Along with the pay issues, I did let him know about this silly divisions in the office, where one group is left out in the dark in the decision making process. I literally cornered him and forced him to recognize my efforts and my presence. We spoke a lot, I let him know that I am not pissed off with anyone but just the situation and how things are handled but I continue to have a lot of respect for him, he is a very hard working man. 'I AM NOW THE TEAM LEADER OF A NEW PROJECT' (This was yesterday)

But still I am sticking with my plans to quit the job. Because even with a promotion there is only so much I can do here.

Today, back in the office, I feel I have more respect around me, mr. J wants to know about the discussions I had with my boss yesterday, I let him know that its none of his business. Things are not going great for him either. As I said, his asslicking and brown nosing habbits have back fired. He feels that the colleagues whose asses he licked are conspiring against us and are manipulating us...He is not feeling comfortable here anymore. He was saying random shit like he is gonna give up or even jump off a building. I asked him to let me know the date and time so that I can get him insured and claim the benifits, and adviced him to be more creative in the way he kills himself, Since he is working in a very creative field..Jumping off the building means I wont be able to sell his organs. . Idiot got it that I am having none of his bullshit, he said he was kidding, I replied 'I was not'.

Things between us were the opposite a year back. He used to try and make me feel inadequate, he used to find a way or say things to make him feel superior. Even if I offered help he would say, He doesnt need it in a very rude way. Ever since he joined he ganged up on me with the other colleagues. He used be very very cocky with me. Thing is that my NICE guy attitude was picked up as a sign of weakness. He was like this with all the junior staffs and used to pretend like he was our boss. Ever since I started doing ASC, he has kinda stopped. Now, my presence, performance and the new attitude along with newly gained respect he is feeling the heat. But for some reason he is craving for my attention too. He followed me for lunch today and thats when we had the earlier discussion.

I wish my romantic side were as dramatic as the events in my office.
