this is just a little something I came up with to compare working with raising a child.

When hired you spend the first two years trying to learn the company directions, issues and policies so that one can be a long term happy employee of the company.

#! Then you hit the terrible twos`s where you become a terribles little worker that they have a hard time dealing with.
#2 Then you hit the trying three`s where you hit those trying little policies that always stand in the way.
#3 From there you hit the fearsome fours where you become a fearsome little employee that will stand up to everything your employer says and tries to do.
#4 After that comes the frantic fives where they become very frantic over the behavior traits you ( as the employee) is starting to show and talking unions.
#5 Next is the scary sixes where the employer becomes scared over the behavior the employee ( you) is showing in regards to rules and regulations.
#6 Next up is the sadistic sevens where you ( as the employer) is ready to call in a priest ( moderator) to exercise the rights of this employee to end something, the behavior, the employee or the hiring co-ordinater for hiring you in the first place.
#7 You then are followed up by the hateful eights of employment. I HATE YOU. Enough said on that.
#8 The nasty nines then come along where the employee shows very nasty personality work traits that would even make a sexual harassment attorney blush.
#10 Now is the terminating tens. This is the point where the employer must have something terminated. You , the behaviors or the employer. Do not care but something is ended now.
#11 Now it is time for the adolescent years of employment, years 11 and 12. This is the time where the employee starts to settle down and understand everything that the company has tried to teach you , over the years, and everything that you have tried and learned. So that when you hit the teenage years of employment....
#12 You can dedicate those years to forming a union and proving you ( the employees ) are right and they ( the employer ) is wrong.

If you fail these years, then it is a life time of employment in binding arbitration.
