i am sorry to everyone because i had a big fight with my boss on the stocks and my work. he almost fired me a few weeks ago and i had to say that i would never post to the si ever again. but i can't do that. but he was very, very angry about what i did. and he said that i had to forget about stocks for three weeks or i was fired. but he is right, i can't stop thinking about stocks and trying to make money.

but it startedn when my boss was away and his boss who is the part owner and check signing person went away for a long memorial vacation.

on the day after the weekend he was still away and i was getting a swatch ready for delivering and went into his office. i am not supposed to be in there but i had to get the swatch and betty was not at her desk to go in there for me. everyone says that i should never be seen in that office ever. people always make it sound like a person will change into something different if he steps into the office when no one is there. betty locks it at night.

so i didn't know exactly what is in there or what happens to people in there when they are alone. i always ask my boss why that is. he says that there is a fast high powerd computer that is hooked up to a special broker computer that is hooked secretly to the ny stcok exchange that tells him just when the market turns so he can put orders in before anyone else has a chance. i believe that there was something like that because of all the money he makes. he must have something special. plus his broker and the mercedes they have.

so i was looking for the swatches and i knew that the market was in pain that day because of cbs radio which we have on for the girls to know the traffic and weather and killings on the street everyuday. i heard that the market was down almost 200 points that day from the radio just like today.

well i am probably spending to much time on this and not discussion of stocks. sorry.
the rest of the story is part my stupidity and getting caught with a red hand and almost getting fired. i am so lucky because i still have a job after what i got caught doing.

it hurtds to think that i did that and also that i was so close to gettinmg the special information. if i ever did i would buy the stocks first and then the next thing i would do would be to post information here and to david nadlin and cube people because they are always getting killed like i did. i just can't take it as much as they can.
