Oh, Work
So I'm in a large office with a cubicled floorplan and a few offices off to the side. Most of the team (7 people) is trying to fix something. They discover that they need Lucy, our accountant. She is in her office 50 feet away with her door open and phone in good working order when the boss uncustomarily yells across the office ( Read more... ) -
Job Search Chronicles: Part 6
There was a 4 day stint as a receptionist and now it's at least a week in data entry land for me. Sure it's mindless but it's easy and it's money. No complaints there. I have to wonder if I'll just end up staying with the temp thing until I have enough money to intern in NYC. I've had to turn down 3 offers from Sony already, 2 in NYC and one in LA ( Read more... ) -
Job Search Chronicles: Part 5
It's my last day over at the leasing office in Plainville. As far as I know, there's nothing lined up at Office Team for me after this so I'm a bit scared. It's not like I have a lot in the way of bills or anything but I have no prospects. I've looked through CareerBuilder, Monster, Craigslist, and half a dozen other hiring agencies (not to mention ( Read more... ) -
Lowlights of Employment
While work's been pretty entertaining with all the outrageous names (the Indian ones are hysterical), walking into an apartment for inspections and finding a dead guy on the floor was definitely not something I read in the job description. -
Highlights of Employment
Receiving 2 phone calls from Dick Johnson, having a half hour conversation with a crazy blind woman, and meeting C.J. Jones (Wide receiver for the Patriots). Who knew a leasing office would be this amusing ( Read more... ) -
"Working"
So "work" is existent. It's 40 hours in an office hopping from desk to desk depending on who's out that day. I've honestly spent maybe 10 hours total (and that's generous) doing real work and even that consists primarily of filing and data entry stuff. Since it's the end of the month, the other two leasing people handle most of the phone work ( Read more... ) -
Last Hurrah for a While
This weekend was a last hurrah of sorts seeing as how I'm starting to work full time tomorrow, though I have no idea for how long past a few weeks. I spent most of the daylight hours yesterday traveling from home to New York City, though the bus ride was mercifully short this time. I met some of my friends, a band by the name of Hybrid Dawn, at ( Read more... ) -
911 Fail
So I was coming back from a show with Jeff around 4am this morning. We'd just gotten on 195 East by Exit 20 on 95 South. We were most of the way around the turn towards the end of the ramp and all of a sudden a car comes whizzing by us GOING THE WRONG WAY. They weren't going in reverse, they were going westbound on the eastbound side. Thankfully ( Read more... ) -
