what I was talking about. Things have gotten even more cruel.
Let me tell you a true story. After a snowstorm, The Company has what is called MATS - maintenance after the storm. We have an outdoor wash bay where all the good little workers wash their tandems. This used to consist of mostly just me. I am not kidding about that. All of a sudden, for some unknown to me reason the guys now have a sudden desire to wash their equipment and take care of it. I've been here for seven long years and have not seen this behavior in others . Especially P69.
Yesterday, P37-one tandem, P69-two tandems and P07-one tandem all used the outdoor wash bay.
Today, I wanted to use the wash bay even though this is going on the second full week and the trucks to my patrol should have been washed a week ago but weren't because I was off and the reason why it didn't get done.
Anyway, today I returned back to the shed to find P69 put their semi-tractor trailer in the way of the wash bay, not using the wash bay and preventing anyone from using it.
I drove my one-ton up to P69 TMII (SE) and requested that he move his semi so that I could wash my trucks. (SE) promptly informed me that I was no longer allowed to use the wash bay to wash any equipment and that from now on I would have to go across town to the Bijou shed to use their wash bay and that he had his semi where it was so that he could wash it. That he (SE) was now the "top dog around here and that I had to do as he said and did I need an email to that effect?" I informed him that, that did not make any sense. That I saw several patrols including his own use the outdoor wash bay to wash their tandems. He informed me that his guys did not use the wash bay at all at Commercial on Wed. I said I watched them use it. He informed me I was wrong. I informed him that none of this made any sense. He then informed me that it didn't make any sense to bring down the vac truck everytime I want to wash trucks. UMMM, that's exactly what we have to do anyway. And I informed him that I'm not trained on it but that's what I would do since that is what is going to happen anyway. I am so confused by this man not making any sense and he kept talking over me informing me it was nice "dancing" with me. What does that comment even mean??? He then went and moved his semi. Which made no sense. I spoke to others at the shed and asked them if they knew that we could no longer use the outdoor wash bay. They all said no. (RL) went and spoke to (SE) and (SE) said he only made it as a suggestion that I go over to Bijou, which is a lie.
INTERIM COMMENT: I had no idea that (SE) would make good on his threat that he has been bragging about for the past seven years of getting me to quit. Nor did I have any idea how much (SA) kept senseless gaslighting (which happened later) from happening.
So I wrote an email, following my chain of command to my TMIII (CC) and I courtesy copied (DW) as that is who is (SE)'s boss. (DW) came over right away and spoke to (SE). I could tell by (SE) body language that (SE) was lying and stating that he only made a suggestion. What bullshit. Suggestion my ass. (SE) also claims my conversation of "top dog" and "dancing" references never happened. Plus I don't even know what the "dancing" comment means. I do NOT speak like that nor would I ever think of using those types of words. It's scary here for me now as The Company likes to protect men like this and will protect them no matter what.
These men are weird here. I never thought I'd say I miss Region1. I miss R1. At least they never sabotoge my truck nor gaslight me. Its a waste of their time and they had better things to do. Obviouly R2 does not.
It happened.
It's ridiculous.
I'm screwed.
Send me all the news,

PS. What does that "dancing" comment mean??? I'm so confused.
