as most of you know timmy is going through some crap with his work. well i for one am offering my help, shoulder to cry on or ears to listen to him bitch and my deepest thoughts for this to work out for him in his family in a good way.
we can offer our own privet thoughts and prayers and we can also post here and tell him how much we care and are pulling for him.
he mentioned a bed & breakfast, giest house thing as a possible future plan, if you have any ideas help suggestions or expertise in this feild please pst a note and let him know your here for him and want to and can help.

who really knows what the "big picture" for each of us is, and who knows that his job will be gone after the hearing...none of that really matters right now, what matters is that timmy know he is not alone.

peace
love

You know you can vent to me anytime, you've done that a few times. I really hope this works out in the end, but keep the B & B in mind.


Why do bad things happen to good people? (No answer needed)

I told you before, I'll be thinking about you on friday.

Best Wishes, and a BIG HUG

He did what I wish everyone would do just once. He stood up for someone else.

I can't think of a worse injustice in this world than that. I believe in all my heart that each step we take makes a difference. It pains me to my very soul to see you punished for doing, not only the right thing, but no less than Gods work.

Religion or faith aside, I feel their is no better measure of a man than how he treats his fellow man. Especially, those that cannot fight for themselves.

Shall we not be judged by how we treat the least of us?

Whatever your faith, or lack thereof, please pray, cross your fingers, chant, throw salt over the shoulder, light a candle .... whatever it is please join me in doing it. I don't know what else to do. But I beg you all to try.

He tried for others. He put himself out for someone he has never met. He risked himself for a person who is not even aware of his fight. We all owe him. He was that drop of water.

Please help my friend.

Kevin

I know it will end tomorrow. Whatever the outcome the waiting is over, nearly.

Logic says "This will be OK". Fear says "it will not".

I have had the whole spectrum of thoughts, ranging genuinely from suicide (unthinkable, but I thought it anyway) to ways of surviving. I tend to survive. If I lose my job, well it isn;t unknown territory. I have only resigned from 4, I think. I have had maybe 15.

Something GOOD happened today. A colleague at work, trying to cheer me up, made me burst into tears. She is pregnant. After so many years of trying. And at least one miscarriage, she is 3 months into carrying twins.

I have come out to a colleague today. It went well. Allin all it has been positive. No-one thinks I deserve to be dismissed. But it is likely.

Even so the personnel department is going to be fair, I think. I explained the concerns I had about my manager's harsh reaction on Monday. Personnel person said "We are ONLY dealing withthe incident in the hearing and nothing else." So it may be ok.

I love your thoughts and prayers. Thank you. All of you.

I know how you feel... I truly hope it goes well for you... but whatever the outcome, I, we all are here for you.

We love you....



Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

Not only do bad things continue to happen to good people, good things continue to happen to bad people. Case in point: this bigot whose big mouth brought on all this grief in the first place. Why should Timmy's life be threatened with being turned inside out while this "gentleman" is able to make himself out to be the injured party?

Timmy, you certainly do not deserve any of this misery, not by any stretch of the imagination. Like everybody else here, I too wish I could offer more than mere words of encouragement, hoping that whatever happens on Friday (and beyond) ends up being for the best for you and yours.

And should you ever open that "bed-and-breakfast" (+ dinner optional!), I look forward to having the honor of partaking of its hospitality!

Whatever happens, you know we all wish you every success and (especially) every happiness.
