11:11 pm	Every time I try to write a meaningful post here, I stop myself. What seems like a good topic in my head turns into crap when I get in front of the computer. I just don't think I'm cut out for this form of communication anymore. I don't want to cut myself off from people at all, but I just wish to god there was a better way than this to keep in touch with all of you. Current Mood: contemplative (4 Comments |Comment on this)

10:25 pm	a memory Bill Cornell, a man I used to work with, died last week. I didn't know him all that well, just worked with him a handful of times when I first started at the new store. Liz knew him much better and loved him. He was a great guy, and I know a lot of people are going to miss him. Obituary in the Providence Journal (7 Comments |Comment on this)

4:48 pm	Well. While I'm waitching for Cindy to finish downloading (downloads over 100 MB, I name. JUST KIDDING people, I'm not that tapped.) I thought I'd give you all a little update. Something that isn't a meme. ;) Ok. I've been working a lot. Yet strangely I'm still broke. I don't get it. Anyways, I really don't mind it that much except it makes everything else I want to do that much harder. There's a woman at work who everyone's pretty much trying to get to quit. We've long since passed the point where we could fire her (there's a certain period of time right after hire during which they can fire you and not give a reason.) Because technically she hasn't done anything that would be grounds for termination. Wait. Is being really, really slow grounds for termination? It's frustrating as all hell. She just doesn't get the job. She doesn't understand, she's literally terrified of the computer (she's 53 and knows nothing about them). If we try to explain something to her, it's in one ear and out the other and 20 minutes later she's asking you the same question with that deer in headlights look on her face This can go on all day. She's been here since June and the only thing she can do with any kind of efficiency is run the register, so that's all we have her do. So, today we left at the same time and she stopped me on my way out. She was in tears, saying that our manager creeps her out and she's ready to quit. Now, I know that our manager can be a little cocksucker sometimes. He blows up at people when he gets frustrated because he has no idea how to handle emotions. Fine, I get it. He's blown up at me too. But we all told her when she started working that that's how he is, and not to take it personally. He does it to everyone, which doesn't make it right but until he finally gets into anger management or whatever he has to do, that's how he is. She's a grown woman. I'm sorry, but come on. You cannot let people get to you that badly. The first time he blew up at me, I was shaken but I got over it, and now it doesn't really affect me (it just pisses me off, but I don't get all teary). This other woman cries each and every time. Half of me feels really bad for her, half of me wants to shake her and tell her to suck it up. Grow some goddamn cojones. If it bothers you that much and you can't deal with it, then tell him. If you don't want to do that, talk to the pharmacy specialist. I thought at one point she did, but I guess not. Ugh. It's driving me nuts. I understand her point of view, but seriously we've done more training with her than with any other tech I've ever seen. We had specialists from the main office come into the store to train her. And still she doesn't improve AT ALL. She told me that after today she's had enough (the manager came in today, on his day off, to go through more of the training stuff with her. She came back all teary-eyed. All he fucking did was go over more of the book with her and talk about her progress.) I think she's going to quit, and I feel bad she couldn't handle it but at the same time, that's life. Not everyone's cut out for this job. She should try working somewhere doing a job she can handle. She's not a bad person, not at all. I wish her well. This may sound mean, but seriously I wish her well somewhere else. I'm sick of her crying to me about our manager, and I'm sick of the other techs crying to me about how much of a pain this woman is. Do I have "I am your bitch, unload all your problems on me" tattooed to my goddamned forehead? Anyways. Enough of that crap. Moving on.... My mother's a litle more than halfway through her radiation (I think). She's tolerating it okay. What's been bothering her is mostly fatigue and nausea, but neither is bad enough to where it incapacitates her. She'll be done by the time the Hawaii vacation comes up. After that though, she has to go back to work. Considering how she almost had a nervous breakdown before because of that job, I don't think it's so great an idea right away but she's taken all the time out that they'll give her. Cindy is finished. I go now to blow things up. It's been that kind of a day. Current Mood: ready to burn things Current Music: Steve Vai - Giant Balls of Gold (live) (1 Comment |Comment on this)

10:53 pm	I'm sorry to everyone who IMed me today on AIM. I have a new cell phone that has AIM, and I was playing around with it this morning. I thought I'd logged myself back off, but turns out I didn't because I had a bunch of messages on it when I checked my phone again tonight... I have no idea how to turn the damn thing off, so I put a fake login name in there and tried logging in again. Hopefully that'll log my real name off. (God knows how much money I just spent today having that goddamned thing on...) So, I'm sorry to the people who IMed me whose messages I never got. I'm not ignoring you, I just have no idea how to work my phone. :( (Comment on this)

4:01 pm	If anyone has gotten a link from my Yahoo account in Yahoo instant messenger, DO NOT click on it. That's the fake page that got my account info, and it was sent to everyone on my contact list. kemeticgirl, check your Yahoo account. I got it from yours, so chances are you can't log into your account either. (7 Comments |Comment on this)

8:33 pm	Ego beckons... If you read this, if your eyes are passing over this right now, even if we don't speak often, please post a comment with a memory of you and me. It can be anything you want, either good or bad. I promise not to come after you with a spatula, either way. When you're finished, post this little paragraph on your blog and be surprised (or mortified) about what people remember about you. (13 Comments |Comment on this)

12:24 pm	an open message to the bastards at the University of Rhode Island Dear Fuckers, I'd like to thank you for all your help with my financial aid. I realize that no one could possibly be as perfect as you, no one ever gets overwhelmed with financial paperwork, and thus no one needs your help beyond "well, there's nothing we can do." I have a full workload this semester, but I do of course have the time between that, a job, and other private obligations to sit in Green Hall for over an hour, just to have some kid tell me that you won't help me whatsoever. Sure, I have time to play around with Sallie Mae. I have time to come BACK to your office afterwards, and wait another hour, for the honor of you telling me "yeah, you can register now." I don't have nearly enough stress in my life. So yes, please let's cut this as close as we can so I may not even be able to take my clinical. Because, as I told you when you appeared to be staring over my shoulder into space, I legally cannot go out into the community as part of my clinical unless I am registered for the class. I cannot register because I owe the school money. I can wait 2 weeks to have the loan approved, and I must, because you wouldn't temporarily take the hold of my account long enough for me to register, as they have every other time something got messed up in your office. That's right around the time we will be going out, and if this gets any more fucked up, I am the one who will be really screwed. But you don't really care, and I understand that, because it's not your problem, right? I know that it is my fault that this hasn't been done yet. I get very overwhelmed and nervous with anything having to do with money in amounts over $40. I'd make the world's worst accountant. But every other time I've gone to Green for help, the people have actually been... helpful. Way to distinguish yourself, you cocksuckers. After 4 years here at URI, and 4 years of having my bills paid, you get it in your minds that I will just out of the blue decide to screw you out of your precious money? Right. Keep thinking that. By the way, if any administration at URI still actually reads my Livejournal, as was the case last year due to the mother of my would-be roommate thinking I was in a cult and trying to corrupt her daughter, please feel free to pass this along. -Mary Najmowicz Current Mood: irate (7 Comments |Comment on this)
