Life Update: Hotep Harry

Good News: There will no longer be Hotep Wednesdays as I finally gained the balls to request a new partner.

Bad News: Consequences of him being pissed at me. I’m not proud of it but last week I got so frustrated at him I stabbed him in the arm with a pen. He was completely within his rights to report me I just know that had I not requested another partner yesterday he wouldn’t have reported it. He had 5 days and yesterday would have been the opportune moment as he would have to work with me again, but he chose the day after. But I’m not surprised, once in a conversation we had in reference to requesting a new partner he made a thinly veiled threat to my job which at the time I wasn’t fazed because I had the recordings to back me up, but now the recordings are irrelevant. The bright side is my company values honesty and I owned up to my discretion, so no talks of firing me have happened, I’m just suspended, but I’ll take whatever the consequences are. What I did was not good or a normal reaction at all–they’re talking about assault charges which I can’t argue with, but no major damage was done, I wasn’t trying to hurt him I was just trying to get him to take my anger seriously since my words seemed to not be getting the message through to him.
