Sucks: Workmate who was generally believed to be insane has gone on all hate curbstomp hate-a-thon against yours truely, up to and including screaming deathrows about how I am evil and a liar and generally vile.

Wins: Workmate has brain of a clam and did one such screaming match in presence of manager, entire upper echelons of store now on my side. General tactic to happily give moron rope until she is well and truely hanged.

Sucks: Still not in any way a pleasant experience.

Wins: University is running both Holocaust Film and Holocaust Literature modules, great time expected to be had by all. will be having one lecture per semester, so can keep job with not much trouble.

Sucks: Grades not good due to lack of experience in writing essays on subjects. Please recc any London base classes/good books on writing for history specifically.

Wins: Decided on dissertation topic, which with luck and £16,000 also be a PHD topic. Did you know there are a number of texts written by the Auschwitz Sonderkommando  that no one seems to have paid any attention to since a summary (and now entirely out of print) bookfrom 1985?

Wins: Now writing again, and editing AIoM one last time. After this, no more excuses, will be trying to get published.

Generally wins over sucks, although the work thing is starting to get to me.

*hugs* Work sounds a pest! But hey, now that the management caught on, sucky colleague may be on the way out? *crosses fingers*

Yay for dissertation topic! Seems promising!
