Well I called my boss a du----s and now I'm in the hot seat. I'm 58 years old and make a good pay but I get blamed for everything that goes wrong. I don't get any respect. My boss is 20 something years old and she doesn't know sh-t from apple... —  read more

Although I’m safe for now, the atmosphere is quite tense and that’s why I’m constantly looking for new rumors or indications that there will be layoffs soon.

I am not employed at this time but need a W2 and can't find a way of contacting them - anybody have an email?

This place is filled with lousy managers who hide their incompetence by intimidating everybody around them. They have no experience and have no idea what they're doing, so the only thing they can do is yell and threaten those of us who are actually... —  read more
