Been awhile

Yes it's been awhile for me. So what? It's not like I have a lot going on. I work and I sleep. How fun is that?!?!

I've been a Supervisor for about 3 and a half years now. I'm salary, which means absolutely no overtime. I still live pay check to pay check. One would think that by now I would have learned how to budget money. Nope not me. I'm still 9 years old with a hole in my pocket. Only now the change in my pocket didn't once belong to Aaron.

I work with Rob and Michael. Mainly Rob, as he is one of my peons. It's cool and crappy all at the same time. Rob understands the pressure that I have to deal with on a day to day basis, but really can't say anything to the other folks. Unions are weird. Crappy and weird. Hellish, crappy and weird... oh I could go on.

This past week we had lay offs. Not my most enjoyable time working as a Supervisor. The station had to "cut" 20% of the staff. Other than cubicle dwellers, we had 2 managers, and 2 warehouse supervisors laid off. No one in management in my department was let go.

Luckily, I did not have to be in the office when the news was issued to the unlucky folks at the bottom of the senority list. I was the one that had to stand at their desk while they packed it up and then escort them to the door.

To be honest with you, I have wished that they laid me off. That way, I could take out a crap load of school loans and go to school. Probably Nursing School as it interests me and there is always a demand for nurses.

Oh well. If we don't bring our numbers up at work, I just might get the chance...
