SUPERCITIZENS SCORES ANOTHER VICTORYYYYY!!!

So... my boss once again contacted me on Sunday, saying how much I dodge working and how I should do this and that and stfu.

I disagreed. I said, listen, I'm stressed out, we need to communicate and work this thing out together, it's escalating and getting out of the hand so let's stop now, talk together and work this out. I said I just came out of a brain surgery, I'm trying to avoid stress, let's be calm and talk OK?

He said he wants to see doctor's diagnosis of my tumor, right? I was like WHAT THE ****!? I got pissed off. I've given all the documents required by the law. In here, employer does NOT have the right to see any diagnosis papers. The only thing you have to do is provide them with the sick leave note with some weird code and that doesn't go to your personal boss either. In short, they don't have the right to know WHY you were sick or what the sickness was.

So I got pissed off saying I don't show it to you, period. That I'm OK, I've told you what I had, you can take my word for it. He said quit bullshitting, time to provide evidence. I said wow, you think I'm lying to you, how can you be suspicious of this, I've been more than open and honest about it? He was like give me the evidence. I said no, he said good, I won't continue your term then. He de facto FIRED me.

But now he got himself into trouble. All this crap was in email. I talked to the dean, and then head of my department. Suddenly my boss was in deep ****. He thought he had all the power in the world, turned out he didn't. So when we talked together, my boss was quiet the whole time. I provided all the evidence including emails, diagnosis papers, my publication list and publications, showing that I've been more active than doctorate students in general and in fact have better publications than some professors in the last year and that I just got fired and my rights were also sort of abused, not to mention in a totally inappropriate way.

So suddenly my boss, the god, shut his mouth. It was obvious to me that the dean had told him to STFU and play dead, because he had no leverage and I held all the cards in my hand and could pretty much do what I want with it.

So here's what I wanted:

I'm moving to another city. I get a grant for the rest of the year, I make my own deadlines, I don't work for my boss anymore but only do my dissertation where I want, when I want and how I want to do it. I also wanted the head of department as my second advisor so in case our cooperation doesn't work, he can be my first advisor. I wanted all my conference trips paid I've sent my papers into before this solution and to have my language inspection paid for the dissertation. That, plus total autonomy on my own work. So this means that I get to do my dissertation from home, when I want to write I'll write and when I want to masturbate, I'll just do that. And still get paid. Worked out for me

In short, they're paying me my salary even though I don't work for them. Sort of a cool job to have
