I hope your meeting yesterday was at the very least conducted fairly, politely and respectfully by the other parties, FFB. You should not have to put up with this toxicity, especially from people who are supposed to be mature adults.

A few more tasks done so far this week.

How nice to "see" you, Helian! It's a very flexible thread - I use it to work through those tasks that ideally I would like to achieve monthly. I very rarely get everything done on my list, but I do achieve a lot more than otherwise! :D
