Well, a while it has been since I've made a real entry aside from some quiz results. I swear, this might as well be a journal scrapbook combo. Well, my work experience is starting to get easier yet suck at the same time. I was moved from my position next to my good friend Wes because my team lead felt I was getting " too distracted". Feh. Whatever. Gods forbid I give the man a hug whenever a customer stresses him out or ask him a question about whether or not I should reset a customer's power management unit. I had though this place to be fun to work at but the deeper I look into the structure of this company, it's far more deceitful than I originally suspected. The social circles seem to be forged and broken left and right all around before I can even ask " What the hell?" Call me crazy, but it seems that an air of fickle understanding hangs in the air when it comes to experience or lackthereof. At least there's enough room to allow for some individuality and some opportunity to prove yourself to be more than a bean counter or a manual flipper. But, again, maybe I'm just being melodramatic. It's disheartening to witness those of authority abusing their privileges just to get ahead of the game, to get the best metrics or to say theyre the best on the floor. Im not unaccustomed to such behavior, however I feel it just bears repeating. The level of competition can be annoying beyond reason, but I guess it's all part of the learning experience. What exactly I'll learn here still remains to be seen, but so far? I can't say it's been that bad. I just wish I could see more of my friends from Hollow. Speaking of which...Shannon, hon, drop me a line sometime, why don't you? :-P Let me know you're not COMPLETELY ignoring me, hehe.
