They are sucking up right now after the Thanksgiving debacle. The boss came to me with news of a 12% raise and bonuses of 13% of my salary yesterday. I told him Kristi was still pissed about not being able to spend Thanksgiving with the boy. They may for a round trip every three weeks and I travel on their time, not mine.
