suddenly, last summer

seems to far away when i took this job and agreed to do the pi and not the rm... meanwhile, an interesting day with a beautiful girl to look at and talk to (and imagine making love to, cuz what else does a corporate mogul do with his day, after all) as i listened to stuff i already knew and openly said for the second time that i was being trained for a second time (first time was last october) for a job that is not my job, not by title, responsibility, authority, performance evaluation, nor pay... see, all year the boss gradually dumped more and more rm work on my plate and i took it primarily because i wanted to see how much of it i could do comfortably without an assistant cuz i trusted him to renegotiate my salary at my annual review even though he said he would renegotiate earlier if he asked me to do RM work and yet the annual review came and went and there's been no renegotiation cuz he is still working on the budget and ftes and other management stuff... and so i talked to the rm vp who was doing the training today without pulling any punches and they were surprised at how little i was being paid and the rm vp will speak to the division president (my boss's boss) about it and she said she knew how to do it so i wouldn't get any flack (huh?) and we shall see what shall be when i get back to orlando... hopefully i will have a job... hopefully i will have internet... wonder what i'd do if i got fired and suddenly had a year lease and expenses of $1200 a month, at least, to cover... never had to think about stuff like this last summer, suddenly (so why is it so easy to laugh?... maybe because there was some genuine glee in the air today... ya for glee :)

I still love the word "glee"...there just ought to be more remembering of glee I think.

No to being fired or laid off (laid off...an interesting term to perhaps explore)...and yes to getting a raise. I say so.

Catch up (and know more)

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
