There's a girl at work

There's a girl at work and I really don't know how to figure her out. She's a wacko. The thing is I really like her, she's funny. But she's super dumb and I mean that in the most honest way. Just dumb. And now I have reason suspect that I can't trust her. Which is really sad because like I said, I like her because she makes me laugh. But the girl just lies all the time! It's getting ridiculous. Like this weekend I know for a fact her son's baseball team lost their game and she comes in and says how they whooped the other team and how wonderful of a game it was. Also, another co-worker of mine had $32 missing from her wallet on Friday, and it could only be this girl who would've taken it. It was only me, the doctor, my co-worker, and this other girl. It sure as hell wasn't me and the doctor is as good of a mormon boy you will ever meet. Then in the petty cash at work we have at least $40 that's unaccounted for. What do I do? Tell my boss my suspicions? I don't know. There are two people who need to be fired, the hygienist and this girl. This girl seems totally cool other than her obvious cluelessness but damn, I guess I can't be her friend. And it's a bummer because I know Zack gets along with her husband pretty well too. And last year she essentially embezzled a few $1000 out of the little league's saving account to pay her own bills (she was in charge of the account) and I've heard multiple rumors about dishonesty about her. Oh well... I've learned not to trust her around cash...

Much, much better

*Phew!* glad last week is over. So far this has been a better week. I know it's only Monday. But Saturday I went out with Zack, Britney, Erin, Erin's roomate John, Roxie, and John's friends Levi and Brian. It was a lot of fun. The only thing is I feel guilty because I completely, honestly forgot about Kaitlin's night, but I hope Amy can forgive me. But, I did have fun. I probably drank more than I should've because I had to wake up at 5:30am the next morning. Which was no fun at all because I was super tired, and I had to throw up. But I didn't :). And then I had to get up early on Sunday because I was going down to Cuba NM for the Rainbow Gathering to see my best friends in the whole world who were there and my brother who was with them. That was.... an experience. Within our first hour there we saw an old man doing yoga with a shirt, and hat, and no pants on (pretty funny) and a guy that had a seizure. It took us like...3 hours to find our friends' camp but we finally did. I miss them a lot. And even though I didn't get home until midnight, I was still happy because my boss said I could come in late this morning, so I strolled in at 9:20am instead of 7am. Awesome. I love sleep.

My Old Job

So I found out why my last job was such a bust last night. Apparently my ex-boss' wife thought of me as a threat to her. First of all, *barf* because my old boss is the biggest NERD ever. The guy would practically wet himself everytime he found a new software. And second of all, I would NEVER cheat. Ever! I pride myself on my ability to be loyal in all relationships, both professional and personal. And the real kicker is that she was 1/3 of the group that interviewed me and hired me in the first place! She was there! For those of you who don't know, my old job was in construction and I was the supposed office manager. I was supposed to start selling their townhomes they were building and then take care of all the office matters as well. Well, that NEVER happened. And it was because Mrs. Lame-o-boss didn't want me to work too close with Mr. Lame-o-boss. So I pretty much just sat around for a year and went on gopher-errands all time. Now dont get me wrong, I like errands. I like to get out of the office. I think I would be an awesome Personal Assistant (if anyone needs one ;) .) But they sent me on these errands because it was the lowest thing they could make me do without actually firing me. Job sucked. But the good news is I'm still friends with my manager from that job and I have a better job now (even though lately I've been complaining about it. At least at this job they love me.) But honestly, I guess I should feel flattered that someone would consider little ol' me a threat. I mean, if someone's going to dislike you, it's better for them to not like you for your good qualities than to nit-pick your flaws. Am I right?

Oh! Want to know something funny? So my ex-manager saw what was happening with me and Mrs. Lame-o-boss, so he tried to hire a girl after me who couldn't possibly be a threat. He hired a girl who had a girlfriend, who was older, who was a little over-weight, but who was apparently pretty cool though too. And Mrs. Lame-o-boss couldn't even handle HER around! I feel sorry for her poor husband, even though he's a dork.

On another note, more good news: I now know of FIVE people who check out my blog! Woot! Perez Hilton: Watch out! I'm right behind ya, buddy!

*sigh*

So I'm feeling a little better today. I'm really trying to get out of it. Do you ever just get in a funk and even though there isn't a reason anymore for you to feel that way, you still do? That's what's happening to me. I need to get happier because Zack doesn't know what to do with me when I'm all down. I'm not a down person, I'm usually really positive and happy and I don't worry about much. I just have to focus.

I'm still going to keep my eyes on the paper but I doubt I will actually quit this job anytime soon. I've too much invested here. I'm starting my 401k, they're letting me go to California this August, and I've already got the ok to go to Ireland next year. Plus, I'm sure things will get better soon. They have to.

I blog more than anyone! It's more of a release for me. Kind of like a journal. Even though no one really reads my blogs. I don't think anyway. I think maybe 3 people occasionally check mine out, but other than that I don't have much of a reader base. That's ok. Just means I can be more forward and honest in my writing.

So, I'm officially not happy

"So I'm officially not happy" with my job. I just am not good at collecting money. And my boss' happiness all relies on my money-collecting abilities. I'm thinking I need another job. Maybe. I should ride out the next little bit and see if my mood changes. I would rather be an assistant or something. I would really rather be a hygeinist but that can't happen right now. I have to go to school first. *sigh* I'm going to go check out the classifieds...

K, I just looked at the jobs in the classifieds and none of them right now look better than the one I have. I just am sick of the collecting, of the filing, and of the whole office depending on me... Dammit. I will look again tomorrow...

My Own, Personal Bitch Out

I'm bored and tired and it's only 7:45am. And I had weird dreams and Zack and I were both mad when we fell asleep. We weren't really mad at each other, but just in general. I had this bitchy woman cuss me out over the phone at work yesterday right before I left because her insurance hasn't gone through, and the reason is because they don't have her eligible! It's not my job to make sure your insurance is valid, or to figure out where to send it. You are supposed to know your plan so they're aren't any surprises, have the correct insurance card (you'd be surprised at how many people give me their health insurance card, when what I need is their dental insurance), know your deductible, maximum, and waiting periods. If I had to figure that out for each and every patient, my phone would end up growing into my ear. Anyway, it was just a sucky day yesterday.

I can't wait for the weekend even though I know I won't be able to sleep in. I'm going to my nephew's birthday party Saturday morning, and then to my sister-in-law's memorial for icecream, and then to my friend's going away party that night. Then I have to get up early on Sunday to go down to the Cuba NM area to see my friend who'll be there. It'll be a fun weekend, just not a sleep filled weekend.

I've been in a funk since like Saturday. I feel bad for my poor husband who has to put up with me. I need to do something nice for him.

My boss is still cranky, tight, and worried (see my other blog http://www.rustylustre.blogspot.com for THAT story.) That doesn't make work enjoyable. I'm just so frustrated! I need to focus on the positive things in my life. I have a great husband, good animals, a great family. I have food in the fridge and a home. I have a job. I'm saving up money to go to Ireland (again see my old blog for that posting, if interested.) I have bills which means I have some luxuries like cell phone, internet, computer, clothes, etc... I have great friends. *Sigh* ok, I'm a little calmer. I just am procrastinating now... I don't want to FILE! (at work)

New Blog

Oook! Here's my new blog! I could've just renamed my old blog but then anyone who reads it (all 2 of you) will have the wrong address, so here's my new one. I like the name better. More Me.
