he hasn't responded to them, guessing he didn't get them yet. he just called because he is buying a car today...ouch. weird not being part of the process. he called to get my thoughts on it, but then didn't really want them. he already had the money worked out in his head...when I questioned a few things (keep in mind, he earns the money, but I am the one who does all the bills, etc), he pretty much flat out said that I would get his full salary, he would live on his commissions (guaranteed commissions are nearly as much as his base salary, with potential to be more).
now, his new base is just about as much as he makes in a year at the job he is leaving...maybe $20k less. ummm, can I get that deal in writing, buddy? 'cause that would make my life much, much easier. and that's a hell of a lot more than the courts would give me (trust me, I know the numbers). guessing when push comes to shove, I can't really count on it, but nice that he is even thinking in those terms. so he's an ass, but not a total dick, if that makes sense. lol.
don't get me wrong, my heart is broken in a thousand pieces, but it will go a long way to making me feel secure to have the money thing worked out.
lwb, have a good night
