Masterful management

Jun 10, 2005 13:18

There are times in life when you realize the company for which you work would be better left managed by smurfs. On this particular day the store in which I work requested from the company, for which I work, extra hands to build up for fathers day weekend. The store called monday. The company responded last night. The store already booked another company for the weekend henceforth known as company B. Now comp B is the stores ace in the hole. Always reliable to get guys out here in a hurry to build alot of stuff (halfassed but nonetheless built.) Now my companies response was we're sending out 3 extra guys for today, plus me this equals about 4 good quick efficient workers probably able to build about a good 80 grills before the days out.

The store informs me that comp B will be getting the work considering how often they're here, and how reliable they've been in the past (this is the first time since I've been here my people have actually repsonded to a help call) The 4 of us sit here now . . . quietly, watching hours roll by as there is no actual work to be done. Somehow I'm the least paid out of this group which sucks but never the less we're all getting paid for sitting here playing cards. I love how life works sometimes.

In other news I told my parents about moving and they're actually really happy for me. Even offering any help they can. I just need to give my uber organized mother a couple weeks notice if I need any moneys ,which is always good to hear, and also said they'd keep the car in my dads name for now and renew the insurance so that it's less of a worry. It's good to be the favorite.

Suddenly life just feels better, like I'm going to do something major and detached from the comfort zone I've built over the last 4 years. I got this major headache yesterday ( shit you not this is gods honest truth ) out of nowhere, then realized that "holy shit I'm thinking" I won't go into the random nes of it all but I couldn't stop laughing after that. Sadly I was alone in my car on the parkway, laughing like a madman. Have I officially lost it?
