To cut a long story short, in order to complete the requirements of my professional association (they gave me this lifeline because I couldn't complete it the original way), I required the help of a firm. I needed certification of my employment. I worked there from 2003 to 2005. The principal has retired and sold the business, but my records are still in the computer system. The new principal won't sign the certification (frack frack). I spoke to them a couple of weeks ago and they did not respond to my emails, so I was guessing that they were hoping I would go away, so I rang them today.

Anyway! Chin-up there's more than one way to skin a cat (figuratively Mr M, not a real cat). I will have to track down the old principal and figure out a way to comply with the requirements. All Afternoon, I have been drafting nasty letters to the firm(new owners) and to the professional association.

I am calming down now, thanks dreams. My anxiety levels are high anyway because I have to go away on Friday, and there's too much to do. But on the bright side, I will have my reader this time to help me with the EXTREMEMLY boring 4+hours on the plane.
Get law officers on your side. If they need certain informations, nobody will refuse.
A phony investigation would be of great help...

If you have a friend or family member in law enforcement, maybe you could pay them a visit together. Alternatively, get a lawyer to make the call for you.

hmmmm? What a nasty idea :lightbulb:

I don't think they have a legal obligation to help, and they are a fairly small business. But after I have resolved this issue i will be writing to the Association's magazine.

thanks nomes I think I am making a mountain out of a molehill. I tend to do that a bit, especially when things pile up. I won't get a chance to sort it out for a couple of months now, so I have to learn to put it away until I can get to it. *deep breaths*. Now I have to go shopping for some clothes to wear on site whilst I am away. I don't think I can get away with flanelette pyjamas in the store.

speaking of pyjamas. My new pink kitty flannelettes have a two inch part on one leg where the seam did not catch! Now I have to sew up.

well they got the echo cardia... whatever back on my Dad. his heart is only functioning at 15-20%. I'm not sure if I said that he has congestive heart failure, that has been a known for quite awhile. right now his fluid output is far lower than his intake. he is very phlegmy. that has my Mom spoooked, but I think it is because he is on day 5 of no cigarettes. regardless. the Doc has instructed her to meet with hospice in the morning. *sigh*

I guess I've kind of been saying good bye to him for the last 3 years as he has been slowly been slipping away to dementia, not badly, just enough to really impact conversations. the last time I really saw HIM was at my Uncles Memorial almost 2 years ago. I think losing his baby brother didn't help matters any

KK - *hugs* That sounds a really tough situation to be dealing with

Echocardiogram - basically an ultrasound of the heart.

*hugs* Sorry. Didn't mean to do the patronising thing. Although I'm happy to administer pats on the head if you want to give up for the day and pretend to be a kitty

I'm sorry to hear that. My mother-in-law recently died from Alzheimer's. She was living with us when she died, and it was sad to see her decline. I don't really know what to say except you're not alone.
