Sorry for taking so long to update; things have been pretty hectic dealing with my job and the work my boss isn't here to deal with any more. Spoke with him about a week ago and things with his wife aren't looking good. The doctors don't hold out much hope. He's planning on returning to Florida sometime later and will probably try to have some ( Read more... )

I've been very busy lately; going into the fourth week with my boss out on family leave. so i've been doing his job and mine. i've decided i can add a new paragraph to my resume. i've become a professional cat herder. i normally don't let a lot of things get to me, but when you're operating an office that's short of staff, it can become stressful ( Read more... )

We got our first wintery blast yesterday; it didn't snow a lot, maybe 3 inches, but it was enough to reveal the idiots who can't drive around here. its amazing, a little bit of snow and people become morons; driving 15 mph, stopping instead of making that left turn even though the oncoming traffic is a good quarter mile away; not using turn signals ( Read more... )

The one we were awarded a few weeks ago is up and running and i think they've ( Read more... )

well, it looks like i have to work on my birthday (tomorrow), anyway. there's a ton of stuff here and its not convenient to sneak a day off when we're one worker shy. oh well, its not a big deal. some friends are taking me out to dinner tomorrow nite, i'm supposed to pick the place. it should be fun and i'm sure there will be ample alcohol consumed ( Read more... )

Its been a while and not a lot has been going on except at the office. A pretty large workload and it probably won't let up for a few weeks. I try to take my birthday off every year (sort of a personal holiday), but this year i might not be able to. One of my co-workers is taking all of thanksgiving week off and that means we'll be a little short ( Read more... )
