i miss you guys!

wow, I read the stuff I wrote about at my old job. I want to thank all of you for your support, very kind words and songs. That was a tough time and looking back, when I see the support I receved, wow, I just want to say thank you, you guys couldn't be better. Even Eva stopped by, her blogs would get me out of my blues. She is one that could make me laugh.
I like my gov job now, no complaints, things are as tearful said they would be, politicaly correct. You do find your people however, that you can cut-up with. It is a world of difference from where I was.

I have not moved, still in the owners house. I do miss him. Someone from there called me at my new job, they said the owner heared and he was hanging around, listening, I actually think he misses me. He was a nice man but, he needed to get rid of the clowns.

Oh, my first replacement didn't work. I worked so hard with her, I wanted her to fit into my place, my world. and tell me how it felt to her. She just couldn't do it though, she did say, they appreciate you now, there is no going back for me. I can multitask like a freak and make it look like I was bored. So on to my new replacement, he, yes a he, is getting the position I asked my supervisor for and was yelled at. They created the position exactly I as said it should be. He is paid 30K more than me and he asked that I train him. He should learn quickly, that will be nice because I don't have the time, I have been doing double time since January. They pay me cash and I must have at least 2K up on my closet shelf that I use as my atm. Yes, I was chumped but, I am respected at my new job. Simple respect was all I needed.

Remember how I bitched about a key to the paper towels? My supervisor wouldn't let me have one? Get this shit, now, I am not even an empolyee and they make sure I can get in there and to anywhere I need. When I was an employee, I had to ask to get into the paper towel closet. As just a Joe Smoe off the street I write checks, un believable. They want me to reconcile the accounts, which I do easily, they are so f-ing lucky I am not a thief. Oh, and close month end. So, although they didn't want me to have access to the paper towels, they will take every figure I give them and have their big MANAGEMENT MEETING , one of which I was told I wouldn't understand. Too bad they have to wait for retarded me to give them what they need to be managers.

I have nothing to grip about with my new job. I am very pleased with the govt. I don 't want to sound like a commerciasl because I am not, but, look ay USAJOBS.com, put in your information, get the emails for positions open in your area, jobs are there, I want all of you to find what deserves you.

usually go unappreciated until they split.

You know the old saying...Anyone can be replaced. OK, it is totally true. But replaced with someone of the same caliber with the same passion? Not usually.

The sad truth in many operations, as specially Government ones, is that anyone can be replaced. But certain people can never truly be replaced. At least not with anyone with near the interest, or passion, or just plain old dedication that some people have. It may just be good old fashioned work ethic, or just an innate sense of what is right. In my experience, this is NOT the driving factor behind most government workers! Who are usually (and rightfully) jaded, bitter and beleagered as hell.

Glad to hear from you and good to hear you are doing well.
