The Vail Spot: Filene's Basement

Nemo me impune lacessit

No one provokes me with impunity

If this is the law of the land...why in a republic (little r) and as republicans, do we allow mere POLITICIANS to the right to use a "title of office" for the rest of their lives as if it were de facto a patent of nobility. Because, as republicans, this should NOT be the case...just saying...

Filene's Basement

Through all our trials and tribulations, we have always kept the ideal that we would find work...my wife was offered a job in the Baltimore, Pratt Street store of Filene's Basement. She just got a phone call from the Regional Human Director Santina X...retracting the offer...after she put in her 2 weeks notice and now no longer has a job. Cheri was supposed to start on this coming Monday...the company has decided that the position of Human Resources Coordinator can't be filled. So, her now former employer has filled her position...what do you do?

So...not only does she not have a "new" job...but her old one has been filled as well. So...what do we do? I would really like your opinions.
