I said NO!
It felt GREAT!!! I'm normally a YES woman. I try to please everyone. It's amazing what a little exercise and some self-esteem can do for a person.
I'm only scheduled to work from 8 to 2:30. I work 30 hours a week...I like it. I worked until 5:30 on Friday, I worked 4.5 hours on Saturday (I work Mon-Fri) and I'm going to be working from 7 am to about 4 or 5 tomorrow and the next day (I have another training session). 2:30 came and I was trying to get out of the office, my boss was in her office with 2 people who are supposed to be helping her get ready for the training, they kept telling me to do stuff for them. Finally, at 2:45 I told them I was leaving and my boss has the nerve to say, "Whoa, I wanted you to stay, I have stuff for you to do." I told her no. Not once did she mention that she wanted me to stay, I had things to do, and I didn't feel bad about leaving.
Ahhh, I feel so enpowered. I'll see how she treats me tomorrow...I'm not worried. I'm her last chance of having an assistant...she's never had one last a year, they all quit. If I quit, she's on her own. 
I've become bossy! Today on the way home from work I was sitting at a red light and I heard a loud bang and the squealing of tires and as I turned my head I saw a pickup truck fly across the street, hit a power line and land on it's side. I immediately called 911 and reported the accident, I was then transfered over to medical emergency and because the power line was down and the pole was being held up by another power line the guy I was on the phone with told me to go to the truck, make sure the man stayed in the truck and to get people away from the power line...one idiot woman was straddling it...DUH!!! So, I ran across traffic and told everyone to get away, and two men were trying to lift the man in the truck out of the door...the truck is on it's side...IDIOTS!! I was bossy!! I loved it. LOL I love the power.
The guy hurt his shoulder and they had to use the jaws of life to get him out, the woman he hit was fine. The van had only a little damage, but he was going really fast. He hit the woman and flew 1/2 a block...blocks here in SLC are 1/4 of a mile long.
Sometimes, little things help us with motivation and self-esteem...I need all the help I can get. 
I've babbled enough, went off the topic of weight loss, but if you've read this far, I'm totally impressed. 
Have a great evening.
