Or, you know, no closure at all. Whatever.

Oh, Cassandra, I am glad to know my complaint is being heard and dealt with. And even gladder to know that you're sincere.

Deep sigh. Once again I am penalized for not being money-hungry and litigious. And contentious. If I had checked the little box stating that I was looking for compensation, Cassandra might have called me directly. Another lost opportunity, and I just don't care enough about it to pursue further.

Though the contentious part, that's under review right now. I just had a very long conversation with my coworker M, who was upset with me about the scheduling on Friday. I can't tell whether we made any headway in the conversation or not, but I have a headache now so that has to count for something. I hate feeling defensive, particularly when I wasn't really being attacked in the first place.
