Oh ho ho. I had thought that the drama would be over, but I guess not! I forgot to blog about this when it happened (I was incredibly busy before break) - on my last day of work, I decided to be conciliatory and leave Jodie a letter. The letter was a lot more civil than it ought to have been; I would post it but it’s pretty long. Basically I talked about how there were issues that made it difficult for me to work there, and that part of it was my fault (read: I could have kissed her ass if I really tried), and, uh, hinted that she might consider seeking professional counseling I had my former co-worker, Belle, look over it, and she remarked how civil and sane it sounded, considering the situation. Both of us were curious about Jodie’s reaction, but I haven’t heard from her so far, thankfully.

Earlier today, I received this email in my inbox from Belle:

“Jodie came up to me while I was making some copies and said “Well, I received a poison-pen letter last week”. I ignored her, because she didn’t say anything else, and then she brought it up again. I played dumb, and she gave it to me to read and said “Now keep in mind that she thinks she’s representing all of the faculty and you guys as well”. I was cracking up internally when she said that…little does she know. Then about ten minutes later she sat out at the front desk with me (I was dividing up the evaluation forms) and waited until I was done (so annoying!!!). Then she STILL sat there for a while and finally said “So, what did you think of karenology’s letter?”. I said I thought that it was appropriately presented and that none of it was necessarily out of line. Then she said “Ya, I agree with all of the personal stuff…but do I need therapy?” I laughed and said “that’s none of my business”. And that was that; I gave her no inclination that I was on her side, but I think she still didn’t realize it. She also said “I need to make sure Ned has a copy of this on file”. Ha ha ha. What good is it gonna do? You’re now officially in her files of people that have told her she’s nuts/stupid/rude. You should be proud! Anyway, I thought you’d like to hear the story…”

Ahahahaha! I mean, hahahaha, christ, that’s ridiculous. I would give anything to see Ned’s face if she actually gives him a copy of the letter. Oh for pete’s sake, I didn’t think, anyone, even Jodie, could be this mentally defective…ahahaha!
