Missed non posting anniversary and other things
So I missed my second or third non posting anniversary (I am too tired and too lazy to check which one, sorry) so happy non posting anniversary lj;
I have internet again (after 1 year and half without any computer and internet access) *pets laptop and modem* and I'm thinking on using my lj again (hold your horses, it might not last, I am lazy).
So what happened since my last post:
I quitted my last job and went to look for a job in Paris and since I am lucky I found a job on the other side of Paris two hours from home *yay me!* (What was I thinking ? Ha, yes, money !). I first had a temporary job in Novartis (a pharmaceutical laboratory) for two months. I met very nice people, I had a nice boss, the pay was great and we had breakfast every thursday morning and ice-creams every tuesday afternoon.
Unfortunately, it ended in september (actually, it's not so bad since my former co-workers will be out of a job at the end of 2008).
Then I found another job in another pharmaceutical laboratory in october, met a few nice people and others I'd like to get rid of (unfortunately my manager said that I can't stage any "accident" *pff* ).
I was trained on SAP, to work with hospitals and meds (I can even sound like I know what I am talking about ;p) and after two months, I have been hired for real. I was working with French customers from France (because there are also French customers outside France) until april. Then I was asked (okay more like ordered) to act as a back up for the girl dealing with the French overseas customers. I was trained from monday to thursday, then on that thursday evening she was fired (long story but I didn't know that a manager could be harassed by an employee, this girl was evil and she even impressed me) and was told to deal with her customers until a new person was hired.
I applied for the position (What was I thinking ? Oh, yes, a more interesting job! *head desk* ) and I got it (there was a lot of tears from my drama queen coworker but she is a psycho and is in need of a good therapy).
So I had to learn everything from the start (and I had a lot of fun. not.), fortunately I had help from a few nice persons and I also had a hard time from the manager of the overseas department (They fired her precious evil employee and thwarted her evil plans of having my manager fired).
I am under pressure everyday, I have to do tons of things at the same time because everything is uber urgent but I love it (I know, I am weird). I just wish that I didn't have to commute for 4 hours a day.
So I am thinking on using my lj again but I'd like to change my layout (again). I no longer watch Lost (they lost me around season two, pun intended) and I'd like something more "zen". I have checked a few lj communities for free layouts and I am pondering on whether to get a paid account again or not (I'd be unhappy to pay for an upgrade and not use it because I am lazy or because my renewed interest lasted for less than a week).
I'll have to modify my profile too and have a look at the settings to see if I feel like I can play with them or not.
This all for now, see you soon or next year for my 2009 non posting anniversary.
