I'm sure your intentions were good.....but for heaven's sake, you've all but given Angi the rope to hang herself! So what if the position or the wages are not comparable?! It is a GREAT opportunity for Angi to learn......and we're all students, aren't we Emily?? Don't piss on her parade! Allow Angi to bask in the thrill of the new adventure that awaits her! Good luck, Angi! Be sure to re-read Mr. Stempel's post. He offers positive advice! Cheers! Colette P.S. Robert...haven't you spoken with Auntie Em about portraying herself as ASMP counsel only on television??
