I never in my life had to deal with such a self defeating person. To make it worse, she then started temping on EI and never reported it and kept showing up here to ensure her EI/entitlements were never severed. She was also religious, most likely believed in supply side Jesus.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17404234601709022496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-7846748434846251182008-03-27T10:45:00.000-04:002008-03-27T10:45:00.000-04:00Nice dissection of Martin, BCer.
