MySpace

I've totally rediscovered MySpace - and apparently only ever friended like 4 peoples. So if you on MySpace, friend me. I'll friend you back. Promise.

I work at the Wal-Mart home office and I love it! I'm actually a support associate (that's a fancy word for temp). My 90 day contract is up on Nov 13th but they had to extend my contract cuz I haven't worked 620 hours which is part of my contract with GDH (the temp agency). However, there is a job that I am officially applying for that is a tiny step up from the position I would be hired into at the end of my contract. My manager (John) told me that he strongly recommended that I apply for the job and that of all the people who have expressed interest he has narrowed it down in his head to me and this other chick, who btw has a serious attitude problem. And John knows that. I think over the course of just one week, he got about 4 emails about her behavior and unprofessionalism. So there you go.

Also, I am currently working the night shift (12pm - 12am - I don't have to work 12 hours I just do cuz I'm allowed overtime). The reason I'm working the night shift is because I'm helping to train temp people who are coming in for five weeks to help us catch up on all the overdue invoices we have outstanding. Last week was the first week and I got hardly anything accomplished as far as my own work goes and I thought going into this week, it would be different because my kids are pretty much trained, they just have the odd question ever now and then. Well I thought wrong because out of the blue I get an email about 10 to 15 more people from another department in our building who are going to help us key after hours, and guess who gets to train them too? That's right - me. So there goes this week. And if you think I should be able to get stuff done during the day between 12pm and 5:30 when they start showing up - think again. During those times, I'm crunching numbers and sending emails and trying to figure out tech problems, because logins aren't working and its annoying cuz they have to key under my name.

So that's my awesome work story for right now. If your curious about my personal life here's an update on that: I DON'T HAVE ONE CUZ I WORK 60 HOURS A WEEK. It's sad but true. I've made my peace with it.
