-- 12:00am -- Ah, another post of my ever not-so-exciting work woes. It's Monday. Eleven hours to go.
My internal "odds" thing has changed a bit since I last wrote anything. As of midnight, I am looking at: Stay: 33% Laid off: 33% Transfer: 33% Back to even.
Quiet weekend. Got sunburned. Slept a lot. Rode my bike. Stay tuned for updates as they happen.
-- 9:30am -- This was the most lethargic commute ever. I waited for lights to change, didn't cut corners. I literally stumbled through intersections like a 13 year old teen that doesn't want to go to the doctor. Dragging my feet.
My stomach feels icky. Current odds unchanged. Stay: 33% Laid off: 33% Transfer: 33%
Crash In other news, Mrs. Robot is in Wisconsin working on this documentary and went to some sort of small town parade yesterday. Naturally, there were Shriners on little mini-bikes doing their thing - but tragically, there was a Shriners mini-bike wreck. Two Shriners got taken away in an ambulance.
-- 9:35am -- Robot pal and co-worker Reba just got the call and is off to meet with the department head folks. Let's all wish her luck. Positive thoughts. Positive thoughts. Positive thoughts. Positive thoughts.
-- 9:55am -- Sadly, my odds just got better. My old boss (or one of them.. it's all very convoluted) was let go - although he assures me that with his very good severance and his Fire Island time-share that he will be all right. Stay: 50% Laid off: 25% Transfer: 25%
-- 10:15am -- We just lost another guy in our department. Honestly, he's the one I really can't imagine how some departments can survive without his help. My odds? Well. They are down again, because letting this one guy go makes no sense whatsoever. Now, I am thinking someone is making crazy descisions. Stay: 40% Laid off: 30% Transfer: 30%
-- 11:10am -- Stay: 100% Laid off: 0% Transfer: 0%
