I readily admit I'm overly sensitive to overbearing supervisors (especially female ones, alas), but I also readily admit that I stand by my belief that this otherwise very nice person is at least mildly bi-polar, but is able to mask it (either knowingly or not) by how "serious" she addresses things, and consequently wins kudos from her supervisor, who, I may have mentioned, is our general manager -- no go-between whatsoever.  I'm reminded of Edmund Blackadder's "twists and turns like a twisty-turny thing".  I also remembered mid-day today that stains on permanent records, if they occur, go both ways:  underlings get formally reprimanded, but overlords get "grieved", a process shepherded by the union, which she, as manager, isn't a member of.  Amounts to a little more leverage on my part, once again, if need be.  Hope may not spring eternal with me and my view of her, but I've still got some.

Hang on in there and think beautiful thoughts. You have our moral and 
prayerful support.

Those taking surreptitious shots have an eye out for who may be watching.

By the way I thought oif you the other week. Michael Portillo, a former 
UK politician, does programmes about railways and one week he was in 
California with one of his stops being at Salinas to go to Monterey, the 
birthplace of the short-lived Republic of California.
