TIME ON MY HANDS...

Saturday, November 4, 2006 3:01:15 PM

Well,

The company I worked for has given me an unexpected and hopefully temporary vacation. Giving me plenty of time to watch FF and Serenity. Apparently, hard work and dedication don't mean as much as they used to. I wish I had a dollar for everytime I've heard..."There just isn't any good help out there."

I made the fatal mistake of going to my employer and asking them to move me to another position. I had "voluntarily" moved to a very high stress job on a temporary basis until they found a permenant replacement...unfortantely I work very hard and feel a sense of responsibility about my work. Why is this unfortunate? Because I was successful...which then means that the employer doesn't want to move you back. I asked to be moved and they refused. Gosh, working 70-80hrs a week and getting paid for 40hrs isn't so shiny. It also pisses off the family. I had to make my line in the sand and they said stay and shut up or get out. After 10 months I couldn't work that many hours anymore so I walked. I did get to pull a version of the Mal qoute though, "I may be on the losing end of this but I'm not on the wrong end."

But, as I said the good news is that I have the time to re-watch the series for the 3rd time and Serenity for the 5th time. Life isn't all bad!
