The Post Where I Basically Whine Because Someone Gave me Money

Before I actually get on with the update at hand, Nick has asked me to tell everyone that the game that injured my boob is to be forever called “Dirty Rotten Titty” rather than it’s original name of “Dirty, Rotten Kitty”. And yes, he thinks he’s brilliant for coming up with it.

 

Aaaanyyyywaaaaay:

 

For those of you that don’t know, I got a new job a couple of weeks ago.  My job at the time was sucking so hard that I think it had actually turned into that expensive vacuum.  You know the one the odd British guy sells on television that, apparently, never stops sucking?  Yeah…that one.

 

Basically, my old office (which I loved) merged with another office (which I hated) and I had start driving way the hell out to China everyday.  Seriously, I was driving close to 80 miles every day, with the added bonus of spending $45 per week on tolls.  I was actually loosing money by going to work. 

 

That, coupled with the fact that my job completely changed into something I hated (they were making me talk to people!  I had to be nice!  I couldn’t yell at anyone!) and truly wasn’t good at made me start to think about looking for a new job.  Then my boss/friend, the wonderful and fantastic Sarah was offered a better opportunity at another company and the idiots that ran the company thought it would be a great idea to bring back the old manager who is an incompetent whore.  At that point, I knew it was time to find another job.

 

Two weeks later I find myself starting an new job only 13 miles from my house where they have thrown a disproportionate amount of money at me, given me a freaking huge office, and pretty much said “Glad you’re here, manage the payroll and benefits however you want and we’re not really going to give you any direction or specific goals, or guidelines because we’re not into micromanaging”.

 

Sounds amazing, right?  It is for about a day and a half until you realize that you’re going to have to do something to justify the insane amount of money and huge office you’ve been given.  Sure, I’ve done all the projects that my boss has given me, but they really weren’t that difficult and now I’m typing blog entries trying to look busy.

 

My boss is a very nice, amazingly intellignet woman and I’m sure I will learn a ton by working for her, but I feel completely ill at ease right now.  I’m not sure if this job is really this simple or if they’re taking it easy on me because I’m new or what, but I need a whole lot more to keep me busy.  Even when I go and ask the boss if there is something I can assist her with or take off of her workload since I’m not very busy, the stuff she gives me is minimal.

 

Yeah…I pretty much live in fear of being fired everyday.
