i really don’t have anything insightful to say but i figured i’d post anyway. things are really bleh right now. my job is good, but good isn’t good enough for me. no one talks at work, so i sit in my cube and stare at the screen all day. i could work, but my mind starts to wander and i visit my core web sites over and over again…hoping for a comment, a post, a picture that will spark some sort of conversation…but it hardly ever does.
oh well…again, my mind wanders and i decided that it is now time to go. i may come back and finish this…who knows
Call it a “bad hair day” an “off day” or what ever, that’s what I’m having today. There was a accident on 285 this morning and instead of putting up with it and going in, I decided that I would call my boss and tell him that I was coming in later. Well, the original plan was to tell him that I wasn’t coming in at all, but now days it’s kinda hard to do that. Back in my old job there were back-ups for my position. There were people that could pick up the slack in my absence. Well, I am the ONLY Creative Coordinator, and quite frankly the only person with any sort of design background in our Sales Operations department.
So I came in today, and to my surprise, all the lanes on 285 were open and there was no traffic. I could tell that my boss wasn’t too happy and this led to a spiral of “blah-ness.” I don’t think I have spoken, actually talked to more than 2 people today. I brought the iPod to work and have sat here at my desk listening to music the entire day. I don’t feel like I have accomplished a damn thing and I’m really angry at myself.
I have to design a logo for our Leadership Training Program and at this point I am stumped. I have like 12 different ideas, but I don’t like any of them 100%. I’ll keep chugging away at it, but in the end I’ll probably not be happy.
So I can pretty much tell that my boss isn’t happy and this makes me unhappy. I don’t like working like this, it’s counter-productive. Oh well…when in Rome. If anyone has any ideas of a leadership training program, I’ll gladly welcome them. I need to have it done in about a week. I know that gives me plenty of time, but I hate coming down to the wire. This post has been all over the map and I’m not totally concerned about that, but who reads these things any way.
On a side note, I need a hair cut. I’m getting somewhat tired of my current hair, so maybe its time to change. I am a guy and typically guys don’t have this dilemma, but I do, so f’ it. Ok, I’m off to look for some more work. Yay work!
I wish people would just shut the fuck up. I work with this guy (he’s old, crabby, and gay). No matter what, he complains. It’s a fucking job! Either do it or get the fuck out. For example (if you are reading this and have no idea what I’m talking about then that’s fine), but I guess that we were told to look at document X for a list of the products that we should be working on instead of looking into program Y. Well since I’ve worked here I always check both. I’m gonna run a little test to see how long it would take to look at them both. Oh look the test is over. By the time it took me to type that I could have looked at the document sitting in front of me AND then taken a quick glance up to look on the screen to see what was there. If there is a difference the I would have addressed it with the person who put the information in. HOW FUCKING SIMPLE IS THAT!
DAMN I’M ANGRY! I’m having a really shitty day and it’s only 7:48. I’m going to keep a running tally of my thoughts during the day and then at the end post. No one ever reads my stuff or comments so it doesn’t really matter if I put something up. But hey, now I can reflect back on things and cry alone at night. Back to MY story. I have to wear this gay ass AT.c shirt today for this lame “ribbon cutting ceremony” for a new location that we are moving to. Well, I’m gonna get back to work, until something else pisses me off.
