Kinda of angsty post ahead, just as a warning...
Today was kind of a meh sort of day. First, I kinda get into with a co-worker (who isn't even in the same building anymore) over something that could've been avoided with a little bit of courtesy. I came in and noticed there was something off about my desk. My chair was lowered and a few of my supplies were moved. Nothing major admittedly, but enough to know there was something amiss. So I emailed the girl who comes in on Fridays and shares the office with me (she sits where another co-worker of mine used to sit. One with whom I got along with MUCH better. Why she has to come in one day a week when she has a perfectly fine work area the rest of the week is beyond my ken). I asked her if someone was at my desk after I left on Friday, since that's my early day. She said that there is someone being trained and she was sitting there. Now, no one had mentioned to me that there would be someone coming in to be trained. And certainly no one had told me they'd need to use my desk.
Now, I don't give a rat's anus (my word of the day, BTW) that someone needs to use my desk while they're being trained. But a little heads up would be nice. Mostly so that I don't come in later on and think someone has been going through my things. I'm very picky when it comes to my personal areas, like work or home. I don't even feel comfortable with people in my room.
It didn't help matter any that my co-worker took kind of a bitchy attitude with me about it. I shouldn't be surprised though, since she's always been kinda bitchy to me in the first place. This incident should make things even BETTER between us however, especially since we've never had to share a workspace before. Well, at least it's only for a few hours once a week...
My best friend from work will be moving out of state on Wednesday. I'm feeling kinda depressed about that. I had hoped we'd get together one last time before she left, but it doesn't look like it's gonna happen. It kinda blows. It wouldn't be so bad if she were moving to somewhere like Georgia or New England or somewhere. They're going to Tennessee. The place where mom and I have talked about going for years now. From the looks of things, we're not going to make much headway in that direction anytime soon. If it were just me, I'd probably drop everything and move, but it isn't so I can't. So it's a bit frustrating to say the least.
While I am excited about the prospect of going up this fall for a week or so, I fear it'll just whet my appetite and I'll never want to leave.
OK, enough of me being emo for now. Hopefully the next time I post something, it'll be more cheerful...
