^ Thanks Mtd... That's on tomorrow's agenda - we really have no more options, unfortunately.
My personal problem is to balance my inner feelings of wanting to cut the guy's throat, with that of justice & a legal process. I get so cut up when people screw me after a long time of honest, genuine input & loyalty. I take it personally & genuinely find it difficult to understand how people can be so ruthless.
You know, I've had to retrench senior directors in the past. In the end, I went to bat on their behalf & secure them the best, fair deal that balanced the individuals' rights & company interests. I have, hand on heart, never, ever, screwed someone in the way these goons are trying on me. I simply could not live with myself if I did that.
Anyway, that's my inner man speaking.
Over to the attorneys tomorrow.
