More work(blah!) and a meme.  
First, I want to say how much I love my LJ friends. You guys are awesome.


Second,A little meme I totally snagged from [info]causette. If this doesn't make me some kind of tv whore I dont know what does. *snicker*

Empire meme )

You ever have someone at work that you just want to smack. Well there is such a girl at my office. Whenever she does something she as to announce that she doing it. She takes all the printouts and distributes them( thanks I appreciate it ) but then she says something like "Well I didnt it becasue no one else did". We have a schedule for doing the distributing but sometimes (most times actually) we get so backed up with work that we dont get a chance to do it on schedule. Yet apparently she does, and she has to announce that she does it. WTF?? And it not like she's doing it so everyone can have their attachments she's doign it because she has jsut as much paperwork printed out as the rest of us in those piles and she wants to get hers first. She seems to be jsut about the only one with free time to do that.

I think it bad that I go to work everyday with a sense of unhappiness. I leave work everyday with a headache. I just dont like being there at all. I'm only sticking it out until I find something better or at least until after UI have collected a few paychecks. I know that sounds horrible but I have to get out of that place. My co-workers are cool enough but most of them aren't sticking around either. There is one guy there who hasbeen with the company for two years and he is miserable. It's written all over his face that he hates it.

Also to boost my spirits I'm going to make a whole bunch of icons. I need to get back to my Milo and Heroes love.

Work! lol!!  
So this was my first week of work which was actually just training supposedly. Basically in training me and whoever else is in ti sit in this little room and learn to use the codes and such for the data entry. Monday and Tuesday went by without much incident. Then Wednesday after I come back from my lunch break the woman who is training me tells me I'm going to be joining my sales team and inputing and transmitting real data. WTF?!!!! No fair warning, just cut the umbilical cord. I felt like the bird who gets pushed out the nest by it's mother and whether I fly or no will determine my survival.

Well it wasn't as bad as I thought, everyone on my team is real nice and helpful and patient. The reason I was sent down so soon is because the original supervisor of my team put in his two weeks notice and after that he left. However he was already backed up like three months worth of work and he left without finishing any of it. There are three people in my group and that have that work to finish as well as new work to complete; so they are completely frazzled. So they send me down there and aside from new order and couple of other things I cant do anything else becasue I dont know how. It's even crazier because the new supervisor is really cool, but because of all the work she can't train me. So they put me on filing detail.

It cool I'm getting little on the job training. I'm also finding out who the snakes in the grass/who's cool and who to really talk too. So it's not as bad as it seems

Work!!! UGH!!!  
First let me jsut say that my heart goes out to the family of the girl and the men who died in the crane incident here in NYC. It's two blocks from my job and they have streets around the area closed off but during my lunch break I was able to get close enough to see the total damage done; all I'm saying is that somebody's head is gonna roll for this.


I stated my new job today. Well actually i started training today. I like it so far except that the woamn who is training us is a bit mean. Honestly, she says that she doesn't have a problem answering whatever questions we have but when someone doesn't input something right she gets all mean and downright rude. Now they person training with me wasn't operating 100%, being sick and coming to work on your first day is commendable. So he was lagging a little and she was still rude. Then the crazy thing is this woman is getting on me and the other person for kinda lagging in inputting the data, she's all "most people wpild have been done already." Then her partner comes in and asks how we are doing and I tell her we're just trying to finish up and she says "are you kidding? save some of that for tomorrow." WTF??

Now I wish she had been our trainer.

But tomorrow is a brand new day so I'll see how it goes.
