So my boss expects miracles out of the replacement. That’s no big deal really, I mean I’ll do what I can, I have a backup plan at least.. But what’s more is the idea I had for my other job (ie the one I don’t get paid for) got shot down point blank, without any […]
Tuesday I had lunch with a former coworker, one whom I’m attempting to keep contact with. It went well, we sat and talked about the new job, and his new position at his workplace for just about an hour. The meatball subs were alright too, I’d never had one before, that I can recall. So […]
The title of this post has absolutely nothing to do with the content. The past few weeks I’ve been given the lead to train other employees here to get them up to snuff in our software. I’ve patiently trained, answered questions, what not, in the one hour alloted each week. Over this past weekend I […]
What good is a federal institution that doesn’t do what it’s supposed to do? Nearly every day of the year a postal carrier is supposed to stop by this office building, pick up mail, and drop off any mail. S/he did not show up yesterday! Now what does this mean? This means that anyone in […]
A recap: Last Monday I gave my two weeks notice, on Tuesday that became four weeks as a courtesy to my boss. That leaves three weeks left as of today. Due to my resignation, they put a ‘hire to augment’ on the fast track to become a ‘hire to replace’. So my replacement was hired, […]
Well, the begining of this new life has been delayed. Rather than 2-week notice, my current employer requested 4 weeks. Oddly enough my new employer welcomed this, as my direct supervisor was to be on vacation during my start time. It’s amazing how fate works, truely it is.
Yesterday I gave my two-weeks notice of resignation. My current boss decided that he would like to keep me on for four weeks, and offered me extra money to do so. I’m torn, I truely want to leave this place, and I have an offer on the table starting at the new place in two […]
It is not as often as I wish that I talk to my brother, he tends to not come online often, and long distance is horrid. Today he called me (from my parents house), and asked me to be his best man. He has set a date, May 12, 2007, sounds good, I shall attend! […]
Last night we did the happy hour thing. Invited two different work places into Chili’s. It worked out well, though it was a bit disappointing as well. Around the table we had the marine, our office manager, the engineer, his wife, Aemilia, myself, Aemilia’s friend from school, and Doc Hydrogen… I don’t think I missed […]
What takes precedence? Do I fulfill a customers order? Do I answer their technical question before they order? What if both need to be done at the same time? What if a sales team member needs help on their computer? Thank goodness they’re thinking of hiring some people in certain places. The wrong places, but […]
