So the hamster song was believed to be the theme song you were using the start a rebellion? I think the idea of that could make a hilarious fiction story. It's great that your work family cared about you so much to help you get your job back. I once had a similar situation. My old boss was laissez faire and got replaced by a strick and hardass boss. She made everyone miserable and ruined the department I work in. I loved going to work before she took over and hated it afterwards.
