last tuesday, i started working as an assistant for a new high-end jewelry designer in manhattan. this is ridiculously far removed from my ultimate career goal, but money is necessary for food and shelter and merriment, as we all know. unfortunately, my boss is completely psychotic and disorganized. she wears black feathered headbands, dark circles ( Read more... )

how in the world did you get that job? It sounds crazy. You might also want to friends lock it. NPR is full of horror stories of employers who find their employees' online journals.

through a temp agency. maybe i'll lock the entry, but this woman is also extremely computer illiterate. she can barely check her e-mail.

ah, temp agencies. i need to sign up with one of those myself. i'm not doing too well finding anybody hiring here.

If there's one person I would pick to work for this woman, it would be you. Seriously.

why? because you love to see me suffer? or because you know i just loooove pure gold and diamonds in excess?

That sounds like 'The Devil Wears Prada' only with jewelry. That is so crazy. I'm kind of jealous.

cadransolaire August 21 2006, 20:46:48 UTC

don't be jealous. i've been sitting here for 4 hours, just waiting for her to call me. her cell phone is off and she's still not back at her room, so i can't even call her. i may be getting paid for sitting around, but i wasn't even supposed to come in today. this is ridiculous.

Now you sound like Dante from 'Clerks'. They should make your life into a movie.

That is the exact comment that I was going to leave ! Great Movie !

omg Annie, she sounds totally crazy. However, You are strong and smart and you can handle it , I know you can. Besides...you get paid to sit around! Easy jobs are hard to come by. I know what you mean when you mentioned your crazy boss thinks she is better than everyone else. At Williams and Sonoma I have to deal with rich, stuck up middle aged woman all the time. They are very small minded and tend to be rude just because they can get away with it. *le sigh* I guess we must all suffer fools. Hang in there. *hug*

She's like some walking stereotype of an aged socialite.
