Double post. I'm procrastinating on writing my bio right now. I hate talking/writing about myself. I just want everyone to generally acknowledge my greatness and not have to write about it.

The fact that you liked this post is gold.
Thank you for pointing this out. Us mobilers wouldn't have known! Fantastic.
Edit: this came off sarcastic and bitchy. Knowing me, it could've been, but this was a genuine thank you post.

I am SO SAD. Today is my work BFF's last day
She's our office assistant and she got promoted on Friday (YAY!) but because it's an internal move we thought we would have a nice long transition period. Nope, we found out today that she's starting the new position tomorrow. So not only am I losing my bestie, I'm also going to have to take back all the work she does for me.
This double sucks. So. Hard.
EDIT: I am genuinely happy for her, I just thought we would have more time (so did she).

Awwww I would be sad for sure if my work BFF left.

My work BFF left me in Novemeber. It was also sudden. I'm still recovering.

I'm in denial. Tomorrow will be terrible.
I'm confused. if she still works there, is she just further away from you?
but yes. losing work BBFs sucks. at my previous agency there was a group of 10 of us that were super super close. we all left one-by-one and each time was harder than the first. there's one left and the poor guy is just miserable.
actually, the first one to leave got let go very unjustly, and it was the final straw we all had with the agency. clearly our higher ups were blind to how tight we were. (it was an agency of roughly 25 people. they lost 9 people in a span of ~3 months because of this)

We work in a satellite office. She'll be going to the mothership tomorrow.
ohhhh. aw man! such a sucky feeling! the worst is when you're trying to figure out who to bitch to. or who to get lunch or go on a coffee run with. ugh. now I miss my old work BFFs. they were so awesome.

This is the saddest. I don't personally have a work BFF, since there are only 7 of us here and I am a weirdo, but I would imagine that would really, really, really suck. I am super sads for you.
The internet people at work decided we needed to complete some online training about internet security. The deadline to complete this training is mid-May. Starting last week, they have sent multiple emails within one work week about the training not being complete yet. I think they need to learn what mixed signals are.
omfg. remember that almost 30-page long report project I was bitching about last week, Vieux??
well, it's still going through creative and revisions, but JESUS CHRIST I'm pretty sure I have the world's most incompetent designer working on this. every single time I've sent through changes, I've had to baby-step walk her through everything - and it's all easy shit. sure, a few graphics or paragraphs had to be switched around, but my god, nothing complicated. I've received the "final revisions" back multiple times with half the changes made and half not made, things changed incorrectly, etc.... and now I've just found out she has changed shit that's not supposed to be changed. she moved a paragraph on one page and put it on the next page. no, not just moved it, but fucking replaced text on one page with the duplicated paragraph. or like, we requested to adjust the colors on an infographic chart - she changed the chart color, but didn't change the coordinating color label to match.
I just told my account team member that I'm ready to pirate indesign and make the changes my effing self.

OMG! That sounds horrible. I am actually in the process of getting ads revised for the March book, and for once I have a great designer. I am lucky that I have indesign both at home and at work, but fuck! I would want to shoot that person. That sounds so horrible.
The worst is, if you're a bitch, it will probably only get worse. I swear, its so much easier doing shit yourself sometimes. Take a deep breath, get a sharpie, X off what got added and just be like a teacher mocking shit up. I am so sorry.
I'm not really used to posting in forums, So I'm just going to jump in here! I wait tables and if you've ever served before you know how bad server dreams can have. Well, last night I had a dream everyone was acting so obnoxious I actually started fighting my tables. It's definitely time I get a vacation!
So payroll fucked up and the bonus I was supposed to be getting tonight and now it isn't coming in until the 20th. I know it is a bonus, but I was counting on that money. I live check to check and my son has this huge, expensive trip to Philmont next week. It's costing me over $500 to send him there and I used funds that I really don't have because I was informed that my bonus would be on this check. I was counting on it this Friday. I literally have no money, its Mardi Gras time here, I have friends coming in town and I am having nightmares because I have never been this broke before in my life (at least not in the last 16 years). My boyfriend is really helping me out, even though yesterday was his birthday and his wallet is tight as well, but it really upsets me that they made this mistake.
I like Pearl Jam as much as the next guy. But if the mother fucker down the hall doesn't stop whistling Last Kiss, I'm going to go mental.
That song (and being a total hip hop head) made me stop listening to Pearl Jam for a while. Before and after that Pearl Jam have been one of my favorite bands.

Ugh. I know that feeling of living check to check all too well. It does get super stressful if anything doesn't go according to plan. Big thumbs up to the boyfriend for helping out in your time of need.
This morning one of our toddlers took a full out grown man shit. I got the pleasure of cleaning the big pile that was left on the rug, a shit smeared shoe, a pant leg that was half full, and a diaper that was full from front to back. I don't get paid nearly enough.
The work day is coming to a close. So, I must sign off. You guys keep me sane throughout the day. Checking posts in between doing tedious documentation is a life saver.
Quick end of day rant... The system was running like molasses and it took forever to enter contracts, making the day drag ass. I am so ready for 5 pm and it feels SO far away still. I really want to go home now please.
I'm having a really hard time at work right now and I'm seriously questioning if I am cutout for the career I've chosen. I would love to find another job that is completely different and leave this crap behind, but I don't know much else.

I know that feel.
What do you do?
On site project manager for a hotel renovation general contractor. I've been around construction all my life, have a bachelor's degree in it, and I have been involved with hotels for almost 8 years. It almost seems impossible to get away at this point.

I bet you can roll that experience into all kinds of other management/coordinator positions. Or is that what you're trying to avoid?

That's what I'm trying to avoid. Or at least in an industry with less ego, liability, and budget problems (if that even exists).
