Cool! That way if I'm in a hurry I can unpress all the buttons and go directly to my floor.

Just like the song that never ends.......
Yes it goes on and on my friend.....
People started singing it not knowing what it was......
And now they sing for ever and for ever just because....

Today I get this everybody email at work. It says 'Everyone be sure to say goodbye Leela! It's her last day.' And I'm thinking to myself, 'Who the hell's Leela?!' It's not even a big organization...

It's two in the afternoon,
I started my day with a nine am one on one with my boss....
Focus more... clean up your area....
Tell the chatter bugs to buzz off....
And why did you lie about this... which techincally, I didnt, I told her x, she heard y, and that particular issue was resolved rather quickly...
Followed by, but I think you're the most accepting of me as the new super, you're intelligent, and I appreciate that you have no qualms coming to me with questions... this was very hard for me to talk to you about this today...

but still.
I've had a headache all day, I want to go hide in a corner and run away from the world... I'm having a no one likes me day...
And I would adore to eat cake or ice cream to feel better... but man... thats not on my diet.

I had my George Carlin moment yesterday. Bad mood + a sense of humor = fun fun fun!

Yesterday I was joking with my co-workers and cast members that I was going to wear my special t-shirt today to celebrate her departure. It says 'Forget Leela!' on the back.

After 2 days of extreme pressure at work, with the owner ML coming at me with all sorts of things that needed to be done, she tells me that we need to talk. After 7 years in Hell my paranoia runs deep and I immediatly wondered what I did wrong. She ended up just wanting to talk to me one on one to tell me that, "You are doing a stellar job and I couldn't be happier with my choice to hire you." She said that she knew I had trouble reading her and she just wanted me to know she appreciated me. It was the nicest thing a boss has ever said to me. She later told me that after the snarky comments a vendor had said to me they then turned around and told her a bunch of nice things about me.

Tonight I have to bust a move to get things loaded into the motorhome for a weekend trip to Lake Success with our next door neighbors. We are leaving after work on Friday. These are really neat people and are a lot of fun to be around. The funny part is that they really want us to go. They have kids our age, but treat us as equals. Once again, Nick will be the token child. We are also taking The Boat. It will be the first time in over a year that it has been out of the garage. I can't believe how excited I am to be going camping.

MG ~ It's nice when bosses take the time to say something nice.

Camping! Sounds fun! Have a good time!

She didnt actually use the word... she said... When I asked you about this.. you said you spoke with her about it.
well I did, I ran the query, I sopke to the other party about two people on the query.
I guess what I was supposed to do, was HAND the other person my query. Thats what the super assumed I meant when I said I spoke to her about it.

Well, its not... I spoke with her about one person.
I didnt understand what the boss wanted me to do, and the boss didnt ask what I meant.

So what she said was... "and the hardest things for me to talk to you about, is that you told me you did this, but when I talked to Catherine, you didnt!"
Well, no, because I didnt say I gave her the query.

It was frustrating. But thank you GC.
