Work Stuff


          I’ve been rather absent for awhile now with the blogs. There hasn’t been much time. I took time off in November for National Novel Writing Month (I needed 17,000+ more words to complete the novel) and working on the magazine was put on hold as well. There will be a double issue coming up at the first of the year for that.
          The reason I’m decided to finally write something for the blog is that I’m frustrated with things at work at the moment. Now I know that I shouldn’t write things about work because it could cost me my job. As far as I know no one from work reads my blog or even knows I have one. If they do read it, well, I can’t help that. I can’t keep things inside.
          There have been a lot of changes at work and not all of them are good. The old General Manager was fired and the temporary isn’t very good. I’m hoping that a former employee gets the job because then one of my good friends won’t be leaving.
          People aren’t doing their work during the morning and swing shifts and its left to me to do them. They aren’t checking CLC (Corporate Lodging: It’s for drivers and certain business owners. They give us their card we swipe it and charge it like a credit card). They don’t make sure the card is current, don’t get a current one, and if they don’t have a current one they don’t call the tech support to get a fax authorization THEN they don’t put it with the registration card!
          They don’t make sure that the server is on or hasn’t frozen. I do my best to check it at least once or twice a shift because I can’t do my work if it’s not working. Things get lost or don’t get done properly if that isn’t working.
          I know that people aren’t happy with what’s going on around here and everyone is pretending that it is. It can’t keep going if the business is going to survive. I won’t leave, I can’t. I need the job and I like the people I work with. I just don’t understand a lot of what goes on around here. People who haven’t been here long get pushed ahead of people that have been here longer.
          More later.
