Work has mandatory Overtime till who knows when. Working 10 hours over is a real kick to the nuts.
I worked 7-7, with a lunch, to make it so that i didn't have to care about doing OT on saturday. Ultimately cause of family vacation.
My mother is still annoying, son is still cute, wife is still ditzy, granny is still a sweetheart. Was a hot and wet (and intrinsically humid) weekend in PA.
My wife 'demanded' something of me, not to say i wasn't being lazy....but demanding anything of me is a sure fire way to make me a big mean grump. You ask nicely, sure i'll do it.
I'm glad I have off today, i need to wind down. Work has been crazy...crazy bunch of rumors, crazy bunch of drama. Management had to call a meeting to solve peoples discontentment with 5S standardization. Ol' Teken decided to speak up and mentioned "I can't get my work done if my keyboard is in the middle of my desk, i have no room." And, this caused Andy to speak up and say "Okay...not everything needs to be the same...make it your own, but don't personalize it so its a wall of pictures."
I digress, a lot of negativity going around that place...the ones that do their job (slated 11+ hours of work in a day) seem to have good spirits. But ultimately the ones in the top will stagnate cause its just work for the sake of work. No reward in sight. I frequently get 11 hours of work in a 8 hour work day. I'm just cool like that, i guess.
I do hope i get to be a manager one day, assistant to the regional manager only makes me yearn for more.
Keep positive, stay positive and be positive. Thats what i'm going to do even while the shit hits the fan over the course of these months.
