Ready, set... rant.
Aside from not having much energy lately the last few days have stressed me out a little. But, that should get better now. Today I had to give a deposition in a case involving a contractor (Mitsubishi Heavey Industries) and the owners of the baseball stadium here. They are fighting over big bucks in a dispute over costs from building the ball park. I'm talking tens of millions. I was supeonaed to appear and give testimony. This is all crap that I have tried to bury for 4 years, and didn't relish having to dig it all back up. Not only from the accident that took the lives of 3 guys at work in a crane collapse, but that my ex (who I'm still trying to get over) got in touch with me after many years right after it happened. So, teres a lot of baggage all revolving around this for me.
When I walked into the room, there were about 10 lawers sitting at a table, along with a video camera. Let me tell you, every last thing you say, they will use to pry deeper into you with. It was like being in a den of lions. They even had daily work reports that broke down what I was doing during the day. This was stuff from 3 or 4 years ago, and I felt like I was on trial sometimes.
I just hope I don't get called into court to testify when the trial gets under way. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but it sucked big time. I just want to forget all that shit. I think the effect it had on me had a lot to do with some of the things that made the marriage go bad. Believe me, they don't give one flying shit what they put you through, if they can use you to help their case.
LEAVE ME ALONE FUCKERS !! :angry:
