I'm not gonna make percent as a picker but I might on the forks
Glad I've got a task to do that means I can keep to myself for awhile. Unfortunately, it's on the wrong platform ie. I'm not officially supposed to be doing this work because my position isn't funded by this section of the business. Manager says it's ok to do it though. There's an equivalent task on the correct program, but we don't have access to the data for it. IP and security issues are a major bummer.
I should bring something in for Valentine's Day so I have an excuse to eat in the office. Everything is so gross and sweet, though.
I'd much rather learn Latin or eat a meal of scorpions marinated in barbecue sauce... than continue to work so hard only to earn pennies. yeah, I'm complaining.
i'll swallow my pride.. and make a better choice.
i couldn't deal with the Toxic co-worker.. not after the back stabbing incident. She was crying in the manager's office... crying over something that was so trivial that even i'm embarrassed just thinking about it.
Another position came up that has more hours, and a couple of days of call. i'll take that and count my losses..
The manager understood, and let me have 3 days off. We tried to make it 4? but it was too busy - and of course, her "buddies" refused to come in to work with her.
The cowardly co-dependent knew something was up, didn't return her phone calls.
sad.. they are so dysfunctional, i'm afraid their toxic waste might rub off..

I need to get this job. Stupid hiring process.
I feel like i'm between a rock and a hard place right now. i have spent the last 6 months doing technical work while being paid peanuts for the job, in the hope i would get promoted. I was told today that the promotion still hasn't been approved and since my contract is up this Friday, they are extended it for another 6 months...Great, only problem is they are not giving me a raise and want me to do more projects. What a ****ing joke. So all my hard effort in the career i wanted to do has not paid off. I was disgusted. What a slap in the face, now i absolutely resent that place, and i spent most of the day doing nothing as I thought what is the ****ing point.
So now I have to go in tomorrow and tell them that if they want someone doing a qualified job, they have to pay me the fair wages, instead of exploiting the fact I am an immigrant on a visa. I hate this bull****, i am not good at confrontation. But I will walk out of the job if needs be, because I know they are also screwed without me, as no one is willing to do that amount of work for such little pay and absolutely no benefits.
I am so fustrated right now. I see people who I went to college with, all with great jobs, and then when I try to excel, nobody is there to acknowledge it or even appreciate the amount of effort. Where am I going wrong? I am sick and tired of trying to make something of myself, hoping one day I might actually have a career I am proud of, and all i get is 'not now, maybe next time'
And it's not that I don't try, I try everyday. But I have spent nearly 4 years trying to make something to be proud of, only to constantly be beaten down.

i'll be fine, cypher, but thank you!^hope that position works out.
Heard some rumors that may make things more tolerable. *fingers crossed*
and i hope the rumors help things work out for you.. *fingers crossed*
It's been 2 weeks now and no one has noticed that I'm not wearing a name tag! Thank goodness for long hair. I washed it by mistake doing the laundry haha. I am kind of nervous to ask my boss to order me a new one..
well, looks like we came up with a solution.
One area is specialized and the other area is specialized. I can work both areas without getting personally involved. Since i know the "personalities" of both labs, the manager and i decided i can go in, do my job, and get the hell out.
when i suggested this? the manager almost came up out of her seat and said: "WE are soooo smart!! I was thinking the same thing!!!"
too damn funny..:lol

wow..
looking back on the past week? i was so depressed about the silliness of my job, the thought of committing suicide was automatic.
glad i decided to just stick around to see what happens.

I'm getting sick and tired of our customers giving us attitude when we tell them that we can't give them a ballpark figure for cleaning their cameras!! I don't want to give you the wrong idea because I know that you'll rage at us when you find out that the price is different than what we said. Ughhhh!!! I never wanted to punch someone so bad in the face.....
Why is my boss okay with this dude doing half the work as everyone else and paying him the same? It's getting ridiculous. He's been there long enough and should be just as fast. I guess I should just slow down...
whelp! i start re-training in the old dept. lab. This is going to be interesting. But what the hell.. both areas know that i am aware of their personalities.
Both areas are aware of me not putting up with their "female" bull crap.
It's going to be a "love hate" relationship with me for both labs, but what i get out of it? More hours, and less drama.

why do I do this?... it's very draining. perhaps not worth it. I just think to myself, those cereal boxes are stained with blood and tears.
Over a year ago, our office sold off the floor our division was on and moved us up into a conference room with the salaried "higher ups." We're considered the "ruffians," so naturally anything that happens that's "messy" is automatically considered our fault. We've received general e-mails about pee on the toilet seats and Keurig cups being left in the coffeemaker, stuff like that. However, I believe the "higher ups" are responsible for these things. Of course I can't prove the pee thing, but I'm pretty sure it's not us habitually leaving the K-cups in the machine. The other day I was the only one in for the evening, and I've never had a sip of coffee in my life, and a K-cup was in the machine still when I looked. Of course it's our fault, though.
:sigh Bull**** everywhere in the workforce.
