i did it..

miedosa
i found the courage to email my ex-boss and ask for a letter of recommendation. i originally intended to call him, but that would have not been a good idea. i quit that job because my boss liked to get drunk and smack me in the ass. he also would talk dirty and try to get me to touch his 'muscles'. i quit before it got uglier... cause it was heading to hell. now, i desperately need a new job.. like yesterday. i have never really had to get a job. i remember applying for retail jobs and always landing them -- but that was, like, 10 years ago.. and i am applying for a different type of job. my last job i was the broker's assistant for a mortgage loan office.
so i am sitting here, trying to be patient.. Clicking on my check mail button on outlook.. waiting for that damn letter. next, i have to gather the courage to apply... oh, crap. i hope he decides to be nice and write a good letter--fucker!

Yes, congrats on working up the courage to give it a try. Another thing that is commonly done, especially for lazy/busy people is to write the letter up yourself and they just sign the thing.

It's harder in a way to do that, writing up your own letter of recommendation (feels too odd, embarrassing), but it's usually faster.

Good luck!

i can write you a letter of reccomendation... but only if you're doing something in the tech world....otherwise it wouldn't carry much weight.

i can do it in crayon OR pen! ;)

wow, good for you!
I tend to avoid misogynistic ex-bosses, no matter what I need. I'm meek and insecure when it's inconvenient.
