   mt9891 replied to jlv613's topic in Critical

   While I believe your managers response was unprofessional to say the least, a bit exaggerated and maybe stems from disappointment more than anything else, I've been in a similar situation. I've gotten to the "other side" (new job) and realized everyt...
