Here But Not Here
Posted on November 3, 2003 by Brian under Life.
Training class again. Telephone training still blows. Especially when your wife has one of her obsessive compulsive moments and decides to spend all night searching the internet to find out what species of gliders we have. This endeavor started at about 9:30. At midnight I had to intervene and go to the office to retrieve her. She got kinda mad at me but if I didn’t stop her she would still be their in front of MY computer. She frustrates me when she does this shit, she will get so wrapped up in something that is not important and then the next day complains about how tired she is. I went into the office and told her it was time for bed, she kept saying one second, then 20 min would pass. Finally I got mad and went in their and was like “What are you doing anyway?” She told me that she was trying to see what kind of Glider we had. I told her that this was not important and we did not need to know this at this very second. I went on to tell her that we both had to get up early and go to work, but unlike her I have to sit in a boring ass class and listen to an instructor talk about something that has no interest to me (can we say sleepy time!). I decided to take the last 2 hours of work off tomorrow so that I can go play poker. I need a release from this environment. I received a phone call from the new 411 call center in this city for a supervisor position. I am hoping that they are going to call me back. They wanted me to come in at 9:30 the following day, I had to tell them that I couldn’t because I was at work and did not leave till seven. He said that he would call me back and tell me where they would be on Monday the day I told him I had off), but I’m not holding my breath. I remember when I was in that position, if someone didn’t come when I wanted them to I pushed them to the bottom of the pile. I told them some bullshit thing about working with them and then would never go back unless I was desperate or ran out of people to interview (which was usually beyond the time frame I initially established). So, with this kind of past in my mind. I’m not holding my breath for a repeat call, which means the search for a meaningful job is still on. Well, I think that’s all I can say at this moment so I will chat later.
