Long Time, No See, Work Sucks

Saturday, August 16th, 2008

Whew! It’s been a while since I posted. There’s been major changes at work, so I’ve been scrambling to keep up.

Four weeks ago, our other supervisor went on vacation for two weeks, so I had to work two weeks without a day off.

Then, our Station Manager got a detail in Renton (I’m in Federal Way). Lot’s of rumors surrounding that, but whatever the reason, bottom line, she ain’t here no more. And I got to work another two weeks without a day off.

Now, the new Acting Manager starts Monday, so I go another week without a day off to help her get acclimated. AND our other supervisor is detailed to another station.

Somewhere, in the space of a few months, and over the years, through attrition or other reasons, I became the senior management member of the three stations. That’s a really creepy thought. The upshot is that the station I’m at is only 5-6 miles from my house, so I save a hell of a lot of money in gas. That means a lot considering I drive a Caddy with a V8.

I’ve got a work-related video I’ll post as soon as I get it uploaded.

In the meantime, I leave you with the Guinea Pig Olympics.
