I chanted, to no avail. I suppose it was inevitable that Victoria would go there. Perhaps I should just be grateful that Nick didn't. This ring-around-the-companies really gets on my nerves.

And aside from that--who would want to go work for their mother after working for their father worked out just so well? *rolling eyes*

Would love to see Victoria stay home with Reed and work on her art.

I agree the revolving door between Newman and Jabot should be off its hinges by now from overuse. Can anyone tally up the number of times Brad has gone back and forth between Jabot and Newman?

I think Victoria would feel more at home in the art world, but IMO she's a better fit at Jabot than at Newman.  As long as Newman Enterprises has Victor, Neil, and Adam at the top Vicky will always be overwhelmed by testosterone.  At least with her mom Victoria can feel valued and not always looking over her shoulder, wondering which division she's going to be swapped over to this week.  I would also expect a female-run company to be very mom-friendly so maybe Vicky will feel motivated to spend more time with Reed in her new environment.

Victoria's priorities are all screwed up.

Within a week she "had" to get back to work abandoning her newborn because in her own words, isn't a stay at home mom.

She's a prima donna who impulsively quit because she didn't get her way (which is ironic since she was bitchin to Nikki/Nick/JT/Sabrina/Adam/Victor/Phyllis about losing B.O.N.) Then she demands/requests Nick drop everything, show up and commiserate about what a terrible life they've had with their awful father.  Nick's a loser.

JT should have been struck down by lightening when he told Victor he was able to remain professional around Victoria.  He's been blabbing confidential information since DAY 1!  He told everybody about Brad's suspected breach of company financials, then never solved that mystery.  He told Paul and Victoria he was looking into Adam's background.  And he's  confided in Victoria numberous times about tenuous situations within the company.  Very unprofessional regardless of their personal relationship at home.

  • I can just see problems arising between JT and Vikki. As soon as Nikki wants some inside info on Newman, Vikki will go to JT, and he'll be in a catch22.
  • Victoria did not abandon her newborn. She always made sure he was in competent adult care. Just because you want to work outside the home doesn't mean you're a bad mommy. =^..^=
  • Nikki was NOT impressed when she thought that Brad came into Jabot with inside information about NE. They wound up using the comparison since they'd already seen it, but I thought it was made clear that there would be no more of that type of thing. Vickie also put Brad in his place saying that she would not be using any inside information at all. That it was unethical. Good for her to call him on that. ShirleyB
  • THe thing that makes Victoria a bad mommy, =^..^=, is the years we had to listen to her whine about how badly she wanted a baby, and within a week of having it she was bored with it. -eom
