Oh, how long must nice friendly people be stifled due to the fear of lawsuits by corporate America. It is so depressing that we must all be automatons at work, never crack a smile, never bring a piece of ourselves to the workplace and have asshat (I know you like that word) control freak bosses who must govern our every word and even facial expressions. Who can take this without cracking...I too will be checking Career Builder soon. I just hope there are still places to work that are humanized. Good luck to you.

There is a sign on the wall in our office: We DO NOT give legal advise -- we are not lawyers. I found out the hard way that people will use anything you say against you. I once looked up some child support information; told this poor woman how much child support her ex-husband should be paying based on the Supreme Court's child support chart. It was in a book, for Pete's sake. Can you believe it? Her husband filed a complaint against me. Turns out, he was disabled (ex-wife failed to tell me) and had filed for SSI. No matter how helpful I want to be, I just keep my mouth shut.
