What they are saying is the math doesn't add up. 40 in 2000 means at least 58 today, and if he is 65 in July, he got you pregnant when he was 6 years old? Really?

That was what I was leading up to, as the numbers seemed a bit off....

It would be interesting if dna test was to show he is not the father.

They don't all end like this one tho. I watched a center Manager get busted down to a feeder dispatcher.
I liked the guy as a center manager. I had actually worked for him for a short while and he was a fair guy.
His story was little bit different!
One day I walk in to punch in and he is looking out the window, yet I could tell he was somewhere else in his mind. A little time passes , he turns, greets me as he always has with a respectful "How is it going"?
I respond in a positive way and asked him the same thing back
"This Is Where He Floored Me With His Response!
He tells me its been a strange day. He says he had a wake up call that evening before coming in. He tells me this story that he was home for dinner, which in his 20 years as a center manager that rarely happened. Turns out as he came to the dinner table to eat a meal with his wife, when he looks up and sees this man sitting on the other side of the table looking at him. Totally shocked by the event that there was a man sitting at his dinner table started him to rethink his life's choices! No the wife didn't have a boyfriend! He was looking at his Son! So taken a back at his life's choices that had led him away from what he truly valued "Family" he finished his dispatching shift and never came back!
Apparently the company did not have full reign of his soul and it wasn't available for abuse or sale anymore!

I also remember when the company did a reduction in management in feeder, which was pre 97 strike where most were unhappy being cut loose. One guy was absolutely elated he was shown the exit door, and as you can imagine he was the best guy to work for.
Then there were these guys??
A couple of them figured "I'm not going out!" I planned my life around this job and a retirement date and that is NOT NOW! So sure enough they got to stay!
OH wait not so fast! They were removed from feeder and were given jobs inside the building so the could ride them like broncs right out of the door. Now they didn't get the pitiful severance pkg they had offered to the other smarter guys who knew the gig was up! But! They did get their freedom by quitting!
