Frustration, Again

Today was a very frustrating day.

First it rained all day so I couldn't get my walks in, although I guess I could have gone to the mall to walk, now that I think aboput it. Poo.

Second, as usual, my boss is making changes that affect the office staff but no one else, leaving us at a disadvantage. Every time I turn around, he's giving money to people who do not deserve it or people who do not follow policy. It wouldn't be so bad if these people did something for the company, but what is really happening is my boss gets to feel like an important person while the business slow goes down the drain.

And all I can do is think about all of the additional work I will have to do as he eliminates office staff but not offic work. And just ecause hte few of us left are extremely capable we get the work done and get screwed.

I just have to remind myself that this is temporary as I have begun my plans to move on. It's just sad though. This WAS a very good job. Time to go fill out my HR Certification application so I can take the test in May. Then I must dig out my study material. Thank goodness I have dealt with almost every possible situation where I work so I have practical experience to help me remember things.

My daughter and her boyfriend did pass their EMT certifications so that is an excellant thing. They are now officially qualified to save my life.

Always a bonus to have EMT's in the family. I am thankful to have a nurse as a daughter. It really helps even when she phones me for advice on children's questions! This is so good for my mother ego as her specialty is pediatrics! Hang in there life is all about the ride in order to go down we first must be elevated. LOL

Pauline: We have many medical people in our family. It is handy. And it is so sweet that your daughter looks for her mother's sage advice.
