I don't have any friends where I work.  Frankly, there really isn't anyone I would want to get a drink with, let alone be "Buddies" with.  Except for one.  Everyday - during the spring -  I have a little buddy that stops by my cube several times a day.  At first I found his visits annoying with his constant tapping.  But I've grown to look forward ( Read more... )

 It was a quick one.  It surprising how fast this week went by when the days were so incredibly long.  I don't think I got home before 7:00pm this week except for Wednesday (more on that much later).  I have been thrown headfirst into this data mess.  I am digging, investigating, organizing scrubbing and documenting for 10 hours a day.  And I'm ( Read more... )

 For the last 7.5 years I have had the most horrible allergies.  Pretty much a diminished sense of smell.  And of course the obligatory sinus headaches and/or migraines.  My fellow employees at the fair have had the same issues if not worse.  I have never known of so many of a  company employees have sinus surgeries.  Now... I didn't have it.  I ( Read more... )

 I interviewed for Spectrum Brands on Monday.  I just heard from my recruiter... "They decided to go another way."

Yeah I know what that means.  I'm going to call him tomorrow to see if he has any other info.  I would like to learn from this one and hopefully get the next one.

As you know, I am in a holding pattern at work while I wait for my release date.  I'm tired of being bored.  So I decided to get some stuff done.  The thing I'm tackling today is ( Read more... )

To find out my final date here at the Panty Factory.

But of course, Charles has not completed what he's supposed to do.

So I may not know till I get back from my de - boneing.

Well, it's at least till august 11th.  It could be longer.

What I have found out, is that they can change that date anytime they want.

Yesterday, that was me without question.  I was ready to go off at any opportunity no matter how small.  And I did ( Read more... )

Let me just say this trip was not great.  There were good things about it, but as a whole it pretty well sucked.  Some positives... I gave the entire presentation, literally carried it myself.  Tom checked out early... he was pissed and I couldn't blame him.  The bra buyer was beligerant and our chaperone was sneaky "nice".    I am neither here nor ( Read more... )

I am soooo not looking forward to this.  where I usually am pretty excited about getting this over with, I'm really not so keen about it right now.

I just have a funny feeling.
