Holy cow...

It is unbelievable what a difference a day can make! I handed in my resignation letter yesterday, had a very nice chat with my boss…we are parting friends. For the first time in a week, my stomach felt almost normal. I actually slept last night too.

I came to work this morning, a bit early, in order to get things started…lots of training to do with the new girl. At 8:05 I asked if anyone had heard from the new girl…she has been getting here around 7:45 all week, and she wasn’t here yet. No one had. At 8:10, she called and asked me to tell our boss that she quit. She said that the position is just too overwhelming…there is too much to do and learn…! She had been up since 5:00 this morning with a nervous stomach…which is actually a part of this job description. So…I got the morning reports out…the Pit Bull took her daughter to have her teeth cleaned and to see her grandmother. She arrived around 11:00. Talk about a nasty mood! Whew! The only times she has spoken to me were to inform me that she will be taking over this and that and the other thing…and when I asked if she had a list of reports…she snapped “I know how to do them!” So…fine.

The afternoon was atrocious…however, they do have someone starting Monday to fill the position vacated this morning…and someone starting on August 8th , to fill mine. I’m sure that I will clean up more messes tomorrow…she says she will do all confirms, tickets, and reports in the morning…she seems to have some sort of adversity to asking me for any help…so…good luck! She insisted on posting deposits this afternoon…and when she couldn’t…she literally tossed them on my desk as she walked off, saying “I don’t have a password yet…you do these!” Then I heard her calling tech support…for access to areas required to do daily work…and telling them that ‘she is new’…!

What a week it has been. I'm considering selling all of our earthly possessions, and becoming a beach bum! I'm tired of working for people who are jerks...and smiling when I want to lash out irrationally...and pretending to be what I'm not, in order to fit into some idiot's idea of an employee.

I'd say life was certainly simpler when we were kids...but...it was actually worse. So...there it is...the bright spot....I'm not 12 anymore and I never have to be again!

Okay...I'm clutching at straws...

Be Well!
