Additional Comments: She was quite upset for a few days when Daddy moved her over to run Acquisitions and let Adam run Beauty of Nature. Dad put Adam in Acquisitions and let Vicki resume running Beauty of Nature. Now she's upset again! What gives?

Message: I thought the same thing! Typical BS Victoria! You JUST WHINED to Nick/Nikki not two minutes ago and now this?! And what about her "suggestion" for Nikki to go with two pictures instead of three in the Restless Style ad? Big whoop. Nick and Nikki acted like she was a genius because of it. I hope Jabot and Restless Style both go down the tubes.

Message: I don't care for either Victoria OR Adam right now so I don't really care who gets what, BUT I think that, though Victoria IS happy about getting Beauty of Nature back, she's a little put off that Victor is moving her around without consulting her first. She probaly thinks that it's because..What Adam Wants-Adam Gets...no matter what Victor is telling her. She may be thinking-well, will he change his mind and move me again in 2 weeks or something.

You're missing the point entirely, when you put if off to which division Victoria and Adam are running or more suited to run.
The point is, Adam says," Victor - I want to run Beauty of Nature" and Victor says "Victoria, I'm going to let Adam run BON and you go over to Acquisitions." Now, Adam says "Victor, I want to run Acqusitions" and Victor immediately pulls Victoria out of there after 2 weeks.
It is the matter of preference - honoring whatever Adam's heart desires - and giving the shaft to Victoria (whether her job performance merits it or not - we really don't have enough information about either of their work successes or failures to judge that)
This is pure sibling rivalry. Victoria didn't like it when it was her and Nick and she doesn't like it now between Adam and her. Can't say that I blame her. Victor is trying to assauge 25 years of neglect with 2 promotions in 2 weeks.

Message: I have been sick of Victoria for years. Even when Heather Tom played her, the writers didn't know which way to go with her. I would like to see her grow up and get some back bone. Her whiney attitude is just old. The Daddy Complex is so over done.

Message: Well, yeah, she got what she wanted, so why would she be upset. BUT, Daddy told her that because she has a child that he does not think she can handle acquisitions. That's actually illegal - even though he's her father, he's also her employer - and it's against the law to take a job away from someone (or not hire them) because they have children (I work in HR, so I know). So, if TPTB wanted to be realistic here, they could have Victoria sue Victor for his illegal activity. But I'm sure that instead, this will be the catalyst for her to change jobs.

Message: Victoria is miffed that Daddy seems to be, once again, favoring Adam over her. What I don't get is how Newman Enterprises makes a profit with Victor making his key people play Trading Spaces every two weeks. If I were Adam, Vicki, and Neil, I'd stage a coup.
Has she even put in a day's work since she was moved to M&A?
The even bigger question is, why was the co-CEO in charge of every niggling detail in a single business unit (BON) of a large diversified corporation? How would she have time to do both jobs, even if she didn't spend all those hours away from the office every day?

Message: I don't understand what the HELL her problem is! Victor is putting her back where she wanted to be. She may as well just get over Adam's presence because he ain't going anywhere.
