Hooray

Greetings all, I'm proud to announce that I'm changing professions once again. I now have a good position at a local hospital, which I will start next monday. The best part about the new position is, I'm not in charge of anyone but myself!! I cannot wait to be one of the people that want to change my hours, take time off just because " I don't feel like comming in today" all of these things I have dealt with in the past week! I can't believe grown people act like children. I have to do two to three different stations at work, because the company is trying to save money, so I don't get much time to do anything extra. Like go to the bathroom or lunch, little things like that. But it sure is funny, since I've given my notice, I've heard some nice comments from my friends, but the best reactions have come from the people that I'm making lots of money for, the best one is " wow, we are going to save lots of money now, by not having to pay you!" gee, thanks. When I do get time to go to the bathroom, it is funny to pass people that are going out for their 5th smoke break of the morning, or are playing cards on the computer, or getting paid to read the newspaper, or trying to figure out what to order for lunch at 9 in the morning! I'm glad they are going to save money by my absence. Wow, I've never seen anything like it, I keep waiting for Alan Fundt to pop out of a corner and say "smile, you're on candid idiot" my own version, of a popular show which I have starred in for 40 plus years.


Have fun out there, and for gods sake, GO ON BREAK! you will make your company millions........

depressing

What a depressing place in which I live. The scenery is beautiful, but the people are angry, beaten-down, ignorant, or just drunk. Bad time of the year around here, not much to do with all the bad weather, either eat at the new fast food place that just opened, or go to the nearest pub. All in all, this isn't the same place I grew up, I don't know if it is me, fighting a mid life crisis, or if it realy has changed. Oh well, just hard to come to terms with the fact that I don't think I will accomplish the things I dreamed of just a few short 20 years ago. Where I work, people are so driven to put down their fellow human being that they will stop at just about nothing to humiliate. One of our co-owners has been in the business for about as long as I've been alive, that's long to be sure, but he has actually lived at this place at times so it would remain a viable business. now that this company has merged with another, the other co-owner issued a press release not even mentioning him. All of his efforts are for nothing! the other owner is so into self promotion, he all but took credit for the creation of the internet, ala Al Gore.. Needless to say a hard put down for a very hard working individual. It makes me want to not even try anymore. But I was raised much differently than that, as long as I wake up in the morning, I will go to work and stay untill it is all done, and all done properly. Even if it isn't noticed, I will know. thanks for listening.
