per_soloOk...So, the big deal today was that E-mail reminders didn't go out, so all of a sudden this morning, ALL sorts of calls came in regarding people with no access to their e-mail.
Yeah, draconian measures, admins who don't do the little things like think of their users...yeah, definitely not my style.
Coming soon? The Great Per_Solo Poll...where you, yes you, get to help me decide just what the fuck I should be doing with my life.
And trust me, there'll be some fun, interesting options on their..including a "write in" spot, in case I'm missing something, so that invariably, some anonymous whiner can say "Quit bitching and buckle down", or "buy a helmet". :-P As if that doesn't go through my head now and again.
Yup, that feeling that things are gonna get a helluva lot worse before they get better? Still there...
Now, on the convention front? I was talked into being a GOH Liason this year...basic duties of that job? Making sure I check in with my assigned GOH, making sure he's eaten, his table is ready, his concerts are ready...no, not saying who it is, as I'm not sure it's "official" yet, but some of ya will have a pretty good guess. :-P At least I'm pretty damned sure i can handle this job for the convention..low stress, unless something goes wrong...
Now, somewhere in the near future, need to start planning the Marcon trip..yeah, I'll lose a day's pay to go to that, but oh well..at this point, I've already told the recruiting house that at the end of this contract, I'm done...course, the fun side of that is that I really don't have to worry about busting ass to make them "want" to keep me..that mythical prize of a shitty job that 4 other people are vying for a big spot.
Of course, I fielded something like 90 calls today..think on a "normal" day, I get about 50...
If ya couldn't tell? All those little stresses? Building..should find some creative outlet for it...but that requires time, and energy, and I hate to say, after muddling through the job on an average day, I just don't have the energy. Hell, I'm joking that I'm lucky to remember my own name at the end of any given day now...ah well. "I Have Faith" that it'll all get better...which is almost laughable, as that streak of optimism that has so annoyed people took a hike quite a while ago.

Yep - not 'official' but solid
Date: 2006-02-22 09:21 am (UTC)We get to take a poll, wow that is like so unusual on LJ these days... (hehhehehe). Crash Helmet? you mean I could have avoided my many head aches by this ingenious device that fits on your head cradling it in reinforced carbonite.... The wonders of this time - WOW I must have slept a thousand years and woke up in the future... (Okay, sarcasim - its what's for dinner).
Dinner - soon - our place.
Later,
Tony
