Today was the Christmas breakfast. It was okay. The food was not great. There are really no good sit down restaurants in the medical area. The boss said that this was the best team ever. She also said that the board of directors wanted to let us know how much they appreciate all the hard work the 6 of us do....blah blah blah. Yeah, the credit union has a net worth of almost 36 million dollars and their appreciation is 2 scrambled eggs and a bagel. I expense $1000 a month for bonuses. I peeked and no teller or bookkeeper has gotten a bonus in 3 years.
The boss never said anything to the new guy. Fine. I'm done with that side of the house.
The boss asked me how month end was going. I said I thought I finished last Thursday. Had she looked at any of my reporting to check my work? Nope. She told me to check what I have done against the performance plan. I did and asked when we would meet to go over the plan. She asked why would we meet?
One of the women I work with was preoccupied by a news story about a club in Roxbury. She was looking for a video that got leaked from the club and was that talk of her face book friends. She found it and showed it to everyone. It was of a man giving oral to another man. Oi. Stupid. She even showed a customer.
The boss left at 11 because she had a dr appointment. She thought she was getting a cough. I wished her well and hoped she wasn't getting sick as she has all next week off as vacation for Christmas. She texted me at 1:30 saying that they think she may have pneumonia. She texted me back at 4 saying she was in an ER in Maine as they think she may have a blood clot in her lung. She texted me at 6 sayings she had a CAT scan and it would be 2 to 3 hours before she was a result. I asked her is she was alone and if she was okay. She said she was alone but okay. Her brother said he would drive up to Maine if she needed him. I asked if there was anything I could d. I have the lap top and can sign in if she needed anything work related. She said she is okay and that she hopes she can go home in a few hours. If it's a blood clot I doubt she can go home. I hope it is not cancer. She is a breast cancer survivor and I know that it can come back in other places.
I really need to set up my office space in the cellar so I can at least enjoy working from home. I really think I am going to call the got junk people to hall the stuff out of the way to make room for me.
