Menopausal mind

If anyone out there understands the female mind I wish they would stand up now.  Even better, how about the menopausal mind and how it doesn't function like anything known to mankind.  It is damn near impossible to know when your wrong, did not do enough, when to say something, etc., when the other party is having psychotic/schizophrenic moments.  These come from out of nowhere and can last for a moment to days.  Usually it is passed off as being tired but the end result is I get to deal with the attitude and inference that it's all my fault and I should empale myself on a dull rusty spike.  I can now understand why the people who live with nuts often first believe that they are the nut in the house.

Each day, more of the people I work with are leaving, changing jobs or at least talking about changing scenery.  As I walked through one of the halls yesterday, I noticed how many faces I did not recognize.  This is in an area where the same faces are seen everyday at the same hours.  Talking with my co-worker I hear words of change, broadening of horizons.  I read somewhere that it takes several tens of thousands of dollars to replace an employee.  If that is the case then how much money does it take to replace eight to tens years of experience?

Come to think of it, I guess executive leadership can have mental menopause too.

Here is paradise...hope to see you there!
