(no subject)
I finished MGT334 this week. It was nightmarish. UOP makes you take a survey at the end of each class and I've never scored an instructor as low as I scored this guy. Times like this makes me very happy that my classes are only 5 weeks long. At least, if I'm stuck with a bad teacher or something, it doesn't last for an entire semester. I was also stuck with Stinky, The Worst Teammate Ever. I was mean enough to her that she talked to another team about joining up with them in our next class. Good riddance. I've never dealt with someone so lazy and STINKY before in my life. Yuck.
I've got some challenges at my newish job. Namely in the form of one of my coworkers. I knew when I interviewed that she and I were going to have problems and I was right. We don't get along and although I have been EXTREMELY polite and friendly to her, she is constantly trying to find ways to exclude me from projects and tasks. I have to constantly remind myself she does this because she is insecure and threatened by me. Our boss had asked her to set a meeting for us to sit down with IT and go over all our open software tickets (new software upgrade and half of what we need to do we can't do). I was supposed to be included in the meeting but she didn't have me on the invite list. When my boss saw that, she emailed her and said "Make sure you include Sarah" and she replied "Was planning on it" except she never did. And then this week I was busy taking care of a lot of things because my boss was in Virginia and I think this really pissed me off. So I was in the middle of doing something today when she comes up to me and asks if I want to go to the IT meeting. I was like, "well yeah" and then we are interrupted by one of the 102931981 people she socializes with every day at work. I left my desk for 5 minutes and when I came back both her and our other coworker were gone. I had no idea where they were or how long they'd be gone. That left me stuck at my desk because we have to have someone on the leads queue at all times. They were gone for an hour and I finally figured out they were at the IT meeting. When she asked me if I wanted to go she actually meant RIGHT THEN although she never explained that. Nor did she tell me which of the 4 conference rooms we have was the meeting being held. Anyway, when they got back I asked her to please be sure not to do that to me again in the future. I didn't get an apology from her. She basically told me there was not reason for me to have been in the meeting and she discussed my items with IT herself. Whatever. I emailed my boss so she would understand why I didn't attend the meeting. I guess it doesn't matter, it just pissed me off.
Oh well, this is just my college job. Right.
You know, when I think about it, I kind of had a shitty week. School was bad, work was bad, boys are rotten, stupid creatures. Ugh. I am feeling the need to wallow.
I just don't GET IT. I've been single for so long now that I've forgotten what it can be like to have someone to share things with. Is it so wrong to want that again?? I don't have baby/marriage fever, I'm not in a rush just because I turned 30. But I would like to have someone special in my life. I don't know why it's so fucking hard. I don't know what it is about me that makes them run the other direction. It makes me tired. I am a pretty self-aware person. I know where my faults are and I try to be objective when it comes to these situations (as objective as possible anyway) and I literally can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. But it must be something or this wouldn't keep happening. What I really need to figure out is how to make it stop hurting when it does happen. I'm really, really tired of being hurt.
