So what’s the protocol on being harassed by a former employee - one that reported to you but that the company on the whole fired. For harassment, no less. This guy just can’t let it go after YEARS.

So what is everyone using to teach GUM skills (grammar, usage, mechanics)? Would anyone be interested in something like a no nonsense, logical progression, keep it simple program that addresses standards, ACT skills, and common writing issues? We’re presently piecing things together from several sources. I’ve had requests from former students and colleagues to put something together. I haven’t seen anything that has everything we need in one place.

After 3 years of dealing with the worst firm I've ever had the displeasure of working for, I finally landed my dream gig at a small specialty firm. The people at the new firm are all SMEs featured in and contributors to the most notable business publications in the world, less than 100 employees, better benefits, unlimimted PTO, doubled my pay and landed a senior role.

Keep looking for what you want and deserve. I'm happy to be forging a better path away from what I've had to endure.
