New Leaves

I'm not usually a subscriber to the enthusiasm of Wednesday being hump day, because I just think that two more days of work... is still two more days of work. Today, I'm actually relieved it's Thursday. I thought it was Wednesday. I seem to be doing that. I always do that when I've been on auto pilot for too long. I didn't do that at Wendy's because I had to know the date every day, and with a varying schedule, I had to be aware. But right now, I don't really have any need to be aware of the time just flying by.... It's nearly June....

Work is work. There's no real consistency to it even though I'm on the same job every night. I tried to be a help last night by helping the line to my left keep moving.... They supply the parts to keep me moving. Well, it turns out that the boss saw me helping, figured that I could handle BOTH jobs (something he tried to get me to do my third day, and I told him I could not do it. I still can not do it) He never told me to do it, and never left anyone else to do it. I really dislike bosses like him. This is a great opportunity for me to learn something. That something is that I am a temp. I should stick to the job that I was assigned, and do nothing more. It's sad, because I really have the desire to be a great employee. But my help is actually hurting the judgement of my boss. My boss has gotten greedy, and I have to realize that he's not the same type of boss that I was. He'd rather set up a system that makes more money, even at the compromise of his production, rather than set up a team that makes a ton more money and helps each other. I get it. This is my job... this is what I will do. Nothing more.

Hopefully, I can maintain this assignment while I go to school It's supposed to be long term. We'll see. There's always something else.

This weekend, B is going to Virginia with his mommy, so we are kidless this weekend. I look at Mike and I say, " I don't know what to do this weekend since B isn't going to be here." He laughed.

I'm a bit cranky today.... Yesterday was the last day of my favorite show, "Starting Over" for the season, and there's been rumor that it won't return. I'm ususally not one to put much into rumors, but I care enough about the show to make a little phone call to NBC about keeping it. I've enlisted Mike to also make a call... My next plan is to enlist Dusty. You've been warned.

Oh, and my other show "House"... That's over too. Damnit.

Go on, bait me with reruns.
