At wit's end
It may come down to it, as much as I hate to admit it. I've been denied unemployment benefits by the state because they choose to believe in allegations rather than truth.
If it comes to it, I may have to sell either the Stro or the Safari or both and quickly.

Re: At wit's end
What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty?
You must be living in the "new world" America where rights and freedoms are quickly becoming little more than illusion!
And where the citizens are not even seeing it happen right under their noses, until its too late.
Sorry to hear about your sad news. Good Luck Bud.
Maybe y'all should try to vote (or shoot) the Zionists out of the white house.

Re: At wit's end
I worked at one location where no less than THREE co-workers contrived a WHOPPER of a tale wherein I supposedly used sexually-oriented epithets. Company investigators concluded that it was a he-said/she-said and sided with the three rather than me.
I'm currently working on a request for redetermination, but there is a 10 week (!) backlog at the state level. That doesn't help me here and now. I've even applied at BK and am turning in a application for dishwasher!
I'm a VETERAN, for the love of Pete! I'm skilled with computers and can run offices. WHY CAN'T I GET A JOB?

Re: At wit's end
I'm surprised more Americans are not at "Wit's End" yet.
Haven't you noticed their best way to keep dissents down is to make up BS stories that go towards killing their credibility?
Why do you think so many make fun of and put down the 911 truthers, and others who try to expose the sour truth in Merica.
Haven t you heard bad things being said about former Gov Jesse Ventura, now that he seems to have joined the fight for truth and freedom.
Now the powers that be are labeling him as a nut, and chipping away at his credibility by throwing out a lot of dis-information about him and others like Ron Paul and Richard Gage via the Media, to keep people from listening to them, and to try to sway people to ridiculing them.
I'm sorry to say that while your case sounds like it may be of a similar type, the similar situation in "Merica" is much much bigger and far reaching.
Surely Americans aren't actually stupid enough to fall for the media's cover ups and the propaganda of military grade & precision.
The hole punched into the white house was simply not consistent with the damage from the crash of a 757. It was too small, and where's the video footage that the FBI "stole" from every camera within miles around at the time.
Sept 10 2001 Rumsfeld announces trillions of dollars simply missing. Sept 11, all is forgotten.
Pools of not-naturally occuring molten iron under the twin towers & building 7, caused by Militaary Grade Thermite charges.
Have any Americans heard on their mainstream media that in Switzerland the courts are trying to have GWBush and others chrged as war criminals? Of couse Not, the powers that be wont allow that news on the mainstream stations.
Sorry to say it Captain, but if you live in Merica these days you should expect that people will conspire against you and work hard to discredit you if you believe in truth, or fight for freedom.
Good Luck, Merican's are gonna need it if they aren't part of the problem/elite/Zionist crowd!!
Your Country is being sadly and purposely dragged into an economic wasteland by the very powers that are supposed to protect your freedoms.
Keep on sleeping through it and next thing you know the 'New World' military will be pointing their guns at you. Not the "regular" US Military, but the 'New World Military'.
Here is a Pic of a "New World Soldier" from the New World Airport in Denver.
If you wanna tell me to go smoke more pot, or keep my tinfoil hat on tighter, then you have simply joined the flock, and you dont stand a chance in the end!
Considering who had these murals painted, and displayed where they are, The amount of symbolism in these pictures is more than most 'mericans' can deal with , and they just say, ya whatever you cook.
Sound familiar? people teaming up to discredit you?

Re: At wit's end
How did this get into the "For Sale" forum Capt?...LOL
doyoulikeithere...I do believe you mean the Pentagon ( not White House )
Since this is turning kinda Political in nature, I'd ask that you start a new topic in either the Political forum or Anything goes, and we'll turn this thread back to Squid's dilemma.
Until you decide to throw the boats up for sale Squidly, I will put this thread into the O.T forum.

Re: At wit's end
UPDATE:
I had a long talk with the pastor; I now have an appointment or two with a counselor. This may not be the end of it, but its a step in the right direction.
When you wake up and your only thoughts are of what to give away to whom and how to say farewell to friends and family, you know you need help and quickly. The last time this happened, I spent three days locked up in the Psych ward. Don't think I got anything out of the visit, because the shrink talked to me only once, and that was when I was admitted.
I got a phone call Friday evening informing me of an open house at our local cable TV company. The call was to inform me of an open house on Saturday between 1000 and 1400. I spent all four hours there. Turned out that it was a prescreening event for a position to which I had applied. They administered a self-evaluation, a typing test and a test of technical knowledge. I missed one on the technical test; my typing was pitiful because they had a square, flat keyboard and I'm used to a Microsoft Natural keyboard, although I still passed. Hopefully, they'll let me know by the end of the week if I have a second interview coming. Following that, there'll be four weeks of training beginning 9 May. Pay's $12.00/hr and free cable TV and Internet and reduced phone charges.
Wish me luck!

Yo, CS...anyone ever taken the hardline with you?...if so, I guess you weren't able to be receptive at that time. And it's not applicable to everyone.
But if you wanna give it a go....I'm here.
I will not have you, or anyone else, make comments that even hint at suicide.
I await your reply here or via PM CS.....and this is an issue that affects so many people, you're not alone and there is no shame in it. It happens to the best of us.....pulling up from the bottom, that is what counts, and actually, will give you a sense of accompishment aswell....
