Labor Day Disneyworld style

Submitted by Urban Teacher on Mon, 09/01/2008 - 13:27.

Things that I love-

When it is LABOR DAY -a day to toast away the summer and prepare for fall- and your boss makes it very well known that he is going to show up to work and the business will be open for those who need access to it-

I feel pathetically sorry for those people who work- work- work and just stay where they are while others get promotions...they are laughable-

I am spending the day- relaxing- with family...

Does anyone else have an emotional wreck at their office that is public nut and emails 1/2 the staff with whatever- just nuts?

"Tonya" knows the business really well- but damn....she is mentally unstable as hell...cries on dime- married to the ******* job- no other life-

God, what is the matter with people?


Do you know the people in your neighborhood?

I believe that the job market is like the Bermuda triangle- there are , I swear, the same cast of characters that float through every job that you have...

The Marine- the guy that will be everywhere and will do everything- the only reason that he can not land on your beach head is because he knows that you will kick the crap out of him

The fly on the wall secretary-you know who she is- incompetent as hell- into everyone's life

The slut-Well...no need to add..would sleep with anything .you basically would hide your goldfish if she came over-

There should be one huge conference in 2-3 years for everyone who posts on this site-

It would be the funniest conference- between all of the stories alone


But the pay is good

So I have a new job- better paycheck- the boss is completely sexist and the men get the world-

My responsibilities have changed so much over the past three weeks that I can't even get an even footing- meanwhile, the guy that started the same day has the whole world at his feet- he gets the nice tasks, the better office- hell they did not even clean mine- the security card for the company- apparently mine is on the way- computer programs that I need...

At some point when you change your job- you have to go along for the ride- I have decided- finally- to be a type B-

I was given a verbal offer by another school district

I quit without a contract and I really do not care.

It is amazing-sorry to bore everyone....that I can watch a investigative report into the shoddy labor practices in China and relate so much of what i have experienced in my position.

Being lied to, being cheated out of money.

A number of extra hours- no thanks for effort

Idiots being promoted over competent workers- idiots failing- then blaming competent workers

No resources


The Psychology of Waiting To Hear

Submitted by Urban Teacher on Tue, 06/03/2008 - 11:27.

I am waiting to here if I got a job that I interviewed for...

There is nothing like absolutely hating your current job, interviewing at a place that you would kill to be at- then having to sit at the same old desk- while waiting for the phone to ring...

I am now going to church more- which means that there is a positive side to hating your job.

I also keep a prayer card on my desk- when I have the urge to pummel someone with a stapler- I can hold onto the card and think of all of the reasons that prison is a bad place...

As I proceed to the last 20 weeks of this God forsaken school year....I have yet another gripe..

My boss, who was raised in the US of A...cannot use the past or the future tense correctly in a sentence...example

"I am going to the board yesterday"

" We should do that thing about yesterday...tommorrow..."

By nature, I am not a violent person..but I would like to beat this person to death with a dictionary...

I could imagine CSI coming in...taking the photos of the body, examining the pages that had fluttered about the room
in the course of the grisly attack...

The other VP breathes like Darth Vadar...now that is annoying during a conversation...I am continually looking around for my Wookie and wondering when I should warm up the Milennium Falcon...

FORCED CHRISTMAS PARTY

Submitted by Urban Teacher on Wed, 12/26/2007 - 01:15.

There is nothing like a forced Christmas Party- you know the one-
You are in your last friggin year of a job and you work with people that you would rather run over than stand next to- and there is a Christmas party to get the shitty morale that everyone has happy-somehow-

Am I the only one who has ever tried to make-it wasn't a beeline- it was like an OJ Simpson "holy shit the LA Police are after my ass" run out the front door... and the principal stopped me-

Some questions...

1. Why do bosses think that we will not want to kill them at these things?
2. Why do people who I can't stand want to talk to me...there is no alcohol available- why would I ever like them?
