I can’t believe how quickly that holiday break went by. Waking up this morning wasn’t as painful as I thought…in truth, I was honestly looking forward to going back to work. I missed the walks. That said, waking up at 6am, instead of 9am, sort of got the better of me at around 2pm. I was falling asleep at work. Hopefully it won’t take too long to ( Read more... )

First week on the job is done and so far I love it. There hasn’t been much actual work for me to do per se. I’ve spent a lot of time wandering around the building and meeting the various department heads. I’ve been reviewing the documentation folder which highlights all the responsibilities of my position. I also have received some hands-on ( Read more... )

I just got a callback for an interview at the place I really want to work for. Universe...make this happen.

Again I must apologize...life keeps getting in the way of LJ updates. I really don't know what to do about my work. Some days I love it, some days I hate it. I really don't like anyone I work with. The money is terrible. The travel time can be frustrating. For the most part though they leave me alone to do my job and that is what I like about it. ( Read more... )

I saw this one coming a mile away.... my current employment is scheduled to end on the Ides of March. Frankly I've been looking forward to it. But I knew they didn't think through the terms of my contract well enough and now are suddenly having that moment of epiphany when they realize that they will need me to complete the full fiscal year (until ( Read more... )

The HR recruiter from the site of what I hope will be the location of my future employment which shall not be named here as yet contacted me with a job posting that I can only assume he thinks I am capable of filling. A manager position to boot. So I replied and we’ll see how it goes. I kind of hoped I wouldn’t start my new job until mid April but ( Read more... )

Office Holiday Social and meeting weekend is OVER!!  Even finished the meeting notes. PHEW....glad that is done with. Since my busy season is now behind me I can cruise till the Holidays and concentrate on more important things…like keeping a regular workout schedule :)

Didn’t get to watch the Roma game this week but I did catch a bit of the ( Read more... )

UGGH…meetings today. I did get a bit of a reprieve as I didn’t have to complete the meeting notes immediately after the meeting for a change.  Unfortunately I just found out they added ANOTHER meeting in February. So until March 15 I now have to attend the following meetings ( Read more... )

I have so many things to update you on I don't know where to begin. I've been avoiding social media (LJ, Twitter) for a while now as my life has been really chaotic. I'd love to start this post discussing the travesty that was this week...my first week working from home, but I guess you really need to know what has been going on in my life to get ( Read more... )

Not much going on here...I have a bunch of finance stuff to do at work but have zero motivation to do it. As far as I'm concerned it can sit for a little while longer. The office move is a go and it looks like I will be working from home from November until the ides of March. At least I don't have to travel at all during winter this year. YAY. ( Read more... )
