Holy mole its been a while. Its the last day before I leave for my two week vacation. I am beyond excited. On Wednesday I leave for Las Vegas with my darling husband! Woohoo!
I also have a couple of job interviews next week before I leave. More money and not here = less stress for me. I've found it increasingly difficult to work for my boss. It's like I work for Miranda Priestly from "The Devil Wears Prada." It's terrible.
So I held up my end of the bargain. I told her I would stay through the event and I did. Now all the wrap up has been taken care of so I'm actively looking for a new job. I do feel sort of guilty for wanting to leave a nonprofit. But the money just isn't where it needs to be for me to be a one woman show. Oh well, at the end of the day, if I want to follow through with the plans I have for the next few years of life, this is the right move to make career wise. Miranda and I just don't see eye to eye. She has these unrealistic expectations and really just treats people like they are idiots. It's really off putting. I don't know if I feel better or worse knowing that I'm not the only one who gets treated this way. And then there's "Andy" (notice the whole TDWP theme I'm going with?). She's Miranda's new assistant. (I'm not her assistant but Miranda is my direct supervisor) Everyone just loves Andy and I find her to be more on the annoying side than anything else. She doesn't know when to shut up really. And I feel like she's a bit of a story teller. Blah. It's just a toxic environment. The only good parts come from the two people who share the office with me. These women help me survive everyday and I would seriously not have lasted this long if it weren't for them. I feel sad at the prospect of leaving because I don't want to leave them but I'm really hoping we'll stay friends and try to at least hook up for dinners every now and again.
So that's the status for now.
Getting ready for my trip next week. Still need to do some shopping and pack for me and the hubs. I'll be back in two weeks!
