This morning at the dentist I watched some office space. I truly can say Peter Gibbons is my hero. He hated his pointless job and so he stopped going and something else worked out. I know it’s just a movie, but can’t that happen for me as well?
Be careful what you wish for is in my brain today. Last week I found out that an admin upstairs was told that her position was eliminated. We were all told she was retiring – alas she did not retire. Therefore, her department (which is higher up in the hierarchy than mine) has one admin for 4 execs while my department has 3 admins for 3 execs. Um… yeah. Who’d be the first to go? The newest? The one who works on specialty things like contests? I would say so, especially since they are most likely doing away with contests due to the financial crisis my company is in. Good times. Soooo while I hate this job with a passion it looks like the universe might just be handing me what I have been wishing for – to be free of this place! Yikes!
I mentioned this to R as well and he was like yay here’s to hoping! Cuz I had been very lighthearted and saying I was hoping to be laid off with a severance. Well… when he was lighthearted I was like no – I am serious – it really might happen! Who knows what the next step would be for me… well, that’s what it sounded like at first coming from him but once he knew I was upset he changed it to “We’ll get through it don’t worry about itâ€. That 'we' can really make a difference I tell ya…
Anyways, the weekend was ab fab per usual. I adore them. The weekend coming up is the one where we are not making any plans at all… I think we’ll be watching lots of movies and kicking back. Sounds 100% divine to me!!!
It’s a Monday…
