Tuesday, February 12th, 2008Someone ask me this morning, after I hand over my resignation letter earlier.
I could have said either of these:

Enough is enough
Monday, February 4th, 2008In the workplace when you’re being shot down routinely by negativity, at what point do you say, “Enough is enough?”
