What the H#ll is Fiduciary?

Got this letter from my former employer, reminding me of my fiduciary responsibilities.  I looked all over the Internet for a decent definition, and it seems to me that the term is left rather loose to my liking. Though it would seem that if you are to be labeled with such a tag that you would be in a position of ownership. Which would provide you with the opportunity to review the annual financial statements, and make all decisions without the approval of or from your employer. Seems that the definition is left to interpretation which has me in hot water.

Never the less, I'm being accused of having inside information and using it for my advancement. Lets get one thing straight, I stole nothing. I am incapable of stealing that which I am accused of taking and it also plants the seed that this company feels it has ownership over individuals and personal freedoms of both past and present employees. In fact that which is missing, left of its own accord, and was leaving either way regardless of my involvement or position in the community and further more it advances me nothing.

I hear stories on the Internet all the time of other companies cherry picking. Truth be told you can't lose that which you can't control. This stolen artifact has a free will. 

So how am I to compensate for losses, when this "artifact of free will" chose to leave. Whether it came to me and my present employer or another company it was leaving. So how do you prove loss.  I don't think you can. 

I'd love to hear your input on this as I'm quite upset over the matter and has caused my present employer to lose production from me. Not to mention the stress on my family.

Signs of a bad boss

I was reading this article from the New York Times, and just had to share it with you. These are so true, I've had bad bosses and this is right on the money.
I just hope that I'm not that bad boss, heaven knows I'm not perfect.
