I had a great day yesterday. I am really starting to like my new job. The boss is great and gives appreciation when its due. I love it! It makes such a difference when your boss comes up and says...Hey thanks for all you did today to help me and I appreciate your efforts. This guy really gets that his staff work hard for him but he celebrates that. He is also a guy who appreciates that its important his staff have great relationships together, that teamwork keeps the wheels rolling. I had helped my workmate early in the week, poor kid was stressed, had so much to do and was behind. I pitched in to help where I knew how...took about 2 or 3 hours out of my schedule, but helped get her to a manageable level again. Yesterday, at the end of the day when I was very flat out....she was the first to offer to help me get it done......the boss happened to be there, and he commented how great it was to see us working together (doesnt normally happen with the normal girl), Bridgette commented that I had helped her out when she really needed the help, so she was happy to step in when I needed it. My job is supposed to be a temperary Maternity leave position, but I have already been told that I won't be leaving but a job will be found for me. After only a week, I have proved my worth.
Friday my darling daughter Melinda had her mouse die...she was very upset, poor kid. This is the first real pet that these kids have lost. Jack was with me when I found him dead. Melinda had already gone to school. He told her when she got home, but did it with a laugh. I had to explain to MJ, that really, Jack wouldnt have known the appropriate way to deal with the situation and that he didnt mean to laugh, but thats what he does when he is unsure how he should act. A good chocolate fix and she was smiling again. Not too sure if she wants a new one. Mice only live 12-18 months so he had had a good life span, but Im sure she didnt give him as much attention in his last 3 months (computer took over her life) as what she had previously.
Yesterday, I got a speeding ticket......ouch. 17 km over so it was a dog. $234 fine and 3 points. That just sucked. My mind was elsewhere and the cop was an asshole. lol. I worked 4 hours at the supermarket. That boss really sucks. He has bagged out all his staff members to their new prospective employer. The guy really is an ass wipe. These people have worked hard in his business but because of his attitude he really hasnt got their full potential. He constantly would talk behind their back to other staff members. He even accused me of stealing the take one day behind my back. I wasnt even there until 5 minutes before it was discovered. The man really is stupid. I am so glad that I have nearly finished with my dealings with him. Sleezy little fat Italian man..he even has propositioned me a couple of times, and his stupid wife accuses everyone under 50 of having affairs with him....ewwwwwww, as if!! I wouldnt touch that lying little worm with a 10 foot barge pole!
Anyway, on to a new day......its just 6am, and I am about to start working on these accounts. The sooner I get them done, the sooner I can leave the job behind and concentrate on my new job only. I cant wait!!
