Stupid Work

[taerowyn]

Stupid, STUPID work. I think I finally passed that grace period where I liked my job. I mean the work itself was ok, but the people were cool and there were lots of nice fringe benefits to enjoy. But now:

• My favorite person got fired.
  
• The manner in which she got fired makes me REALLY not happy with my boss.
  
• Everybody suddenly realized how much she was taking care of so now they're asking me to do that...cause you know, I don't have my own work to do.
  
• My schedule just got moved from 7 to 4 to 8 to 5. Probably doesn't sound like much, but it means a hell of a lot more traffic to deal with.
  
• The only reason my schedule got shifted is because the girls upstairs are on "flex-time" and "need to have the freedom to leave whenever they want" despite the fact that they're here til 5 about 90 fuckin' percent of the time.
  

So yes, Katy is now perusing the classifieds. I'm going to give the new situation some time to settle down before I make any decisions; let the fresh anger and consternation disipate a bit. But at the moment, I am really not enjoying the environment I'm in. I think as payback for how my friend was let go, I should leave with 0 days notice. I mean the girl randomly came in on her day off to get some stuff done and she got fired. What kind of a load of crap is that?!?

While I'm not looking for a new job I can understand your frustrations. I hope everything clears up there and you don't have to start the whole job hunt again. Of course if you are looking to change jobs it will make the decision to go away sooner easier -without feeling bad about leaving work or when you can leave it or all that.

Thanks

I'm going to let things cool off for awhile, see what I feel like then. At least next week the booss will be out of town all week so there wil be some relief.

Which is all well and good, but there's no way I can get an application into Boston on time. Besides, I'd still like to see if I can get the whole UK school thing off the ground. So I'm here for at least another, just not at this job, maybe.
