Is apparently my speed these days... life has been quiet. And that boys and girls is not such a bad thing. Spoke to Bubba last night and again this morning, his new job? Finding another job. Apparently Sun-makers-r-us is fast running out of money and they are looking to trim away not only the fat but the meat next to the bone. So we have previously discussed Bubba out of work - it won't be pretty for anyone.
But as anal-retentive accounting types are generally always in demand I hold fast to the belief that he won't be with this company for long or out of work should the trimming take place sooner rather than later... We've lived off of hot dogs and mac-n-cheese before and can do so again. ME? I'll have a job and will enjoy a steak or dinner out - he can live on mac-n-cheese. ;-)
Yesterday was wonderfully quiet, worked from home, did what I had to do, pups were happy, sleeping in and out but it was sticky hot hot and they preferred to be in rather than out. Again today stepping outside was a dip in the sticky sauna sweet and my hair is kinky. But the car, office and house have A/C and it's all right.
Work is work, getting to the end of my major audit project, next is two major software deliverables, then an office move - the joy and the bliss that will come with that...AND we're going to share offices. Cripes. I haven't had to share an office in YEARS but hey love me love my Russell Crowe movie posters. My radio choices are mine and piped in via head phones. It will work out just fine... I hope.
Also heard the rumor the boss will be in next week... what joy and bliss can this visit bring? Stay tuned for news and updates.
OK so I need a list of requirements to talk Bubba into a cool new phone. He's talking about cutting back our services and I want the zippy new phone that does all kinds of new stuff... any suggestions? Texting Gigs and Cin aren't good reasons to the tight fisted accountant types. I'll come up with something... or make stuff up - one or other.
Going off on a small rant... was going to make plans for Wednesday night - I was home, pups were tended it was all good... deputy boss calls - can you chat at 5:00? big boss wants updated on major project with some details. Cripes. I hate talking to higher managements, makes me nervous and I say stupid stuff... but I dialed in as requested answered questions, took notes, send data requested and got the thumbs up when I got in (finally) this morning. Oh goodie. I guess he's justifying paying me out of his pocket versus the contract. what fun. But then I missed a night out with the girls... well with Bubba facing layoff I better keep the boss men happy. (and not that way you pervs... please ick.)
Speaking of which I better get back at it... yeah. I need a mental health day - and soon-- and based upon my schedule it will be next year some time-- kill me now.
