I kind of miss my old office. It's closer to home, and the people were nicer. But I DON'T miss the constant collections. It's Admin Day. It's Boss' Day. It's the Admin's birthday. It's the Boss' birthday. This person is pregnant, that one had a baby. And the tragedies. Just so weird for an office of ~130! So many family/spouse deaths, accidents, fires, etc., it was unreal. My new office has over 400, and there's not been one collection or tragedy in the 5 months I've been there.

I work nights and i like it for the most part. the pace is slower, i don't have to deal with a lot of annoying CWs or mgmt (it's only me and one other person at night), and I get paid more. but i think i may have to go back to days. i've been doing nights for about 3 years and i can tell it's taking a toll on my health. I've gained a lot of weight, am constantly sleep-deprived no matter how much sleep i get (daytime sleep just isn't as restorative as nighttime sleep), and it's hard to have a social life. i think it may be worth the hassle and pay cut to not feel sluggish, blah, and run down all the time.

Dude, I just had a representative from the Social Security Administration ask ME what a W2C form is. My question: Will you guys accept a W2C on regular copy paper and black ink, or do I need a pre-printed form? ..... Her answer: What's a W2C? ... I swear to Christ... I don't even ... *headdesk*

People are not shaking hands because they don't want to get the flu. Makes sense.

So I was at this job fair on Saturday. One of the reps there works with a bunch of area companies as sort of a head hunter. He talked with me for like 20 minutes on Saturday and asked for my resume. He called me today and said by getting to know me a bit, he feels very comfortable touting me to at least 3 local companies that are hiring. He said he can help me touch up my resume and feels confident he can land me a job by May. I'm so excited!!

Babysitting lawyers all day is extremely stressful You'd think that after 22 years I'd KNOW that.

I was at a job fair and was meeting one of the recruiters. I extended my hand to shake his and he didn't extend his back....talk about awkward!

I decided to not take the temp job because it actually isn't really the industry I want to go into. It is the field that I used to work in and that I wanted to get away from. But---great news....I got an interview with the city to work at the wastewater treatment plant! That would be such a sweet gig--no commute, good benefits, and steady hours. If you are the praying type, say a few for me please!

Wait, what? These two copies of the same tax form have two different due dates. Huuh? ... Imma go with the one that's not currently late. *grin* currently late.... lol. I crack me up.

I knew someone who had CPS show up for a well check when her child showed up at school with a sweater that was slightly damp. When she took her kid's sweater out she thought it was dry, but its hard to tell when its warm. Yeah, that was fun.
