Joanne’s Place

Another late night for me, this makes seven days in a row of nothing but 12 hour shifts or loner. Our data system isn’t working and nobody can figure out why so we have to go through 250,000 accounting entries one by one to try and figure out if the entry is booked correctly or not. Sounds like a lot of fun doesn’t it? Of course I’m salary so I don’t get paid for any of these extra hours, so my effective rate of work is like $9 an hour. Lovely!

Anyway I’m just really exhausted, barely ate dinner all week and I am really looking forward to the weekend assuming I don’t have to be at work again.  At least not eating will make me lose weight fast, at least short term. As far as I know the madness is over but then again I thought that was the case on Tuesday too and I left at freaking midnight, so I guess anything can happen. Have a lot of meetings tomorrow but they should be mostly wrap up style meetings so anything that puts an end to the madness is fine by me.

Next week I really need to take it easy, probably going to go book a relaxing vacation sometime soon, not really sure where to though. Maybe Florida but it would be hard to go down there in the summer, it gets so hot and humid down there, I may be better off going somewhere that’s further north like Washington DC or something, might be cool and all with the new president. We can see how things are down there now, probably pretty cool.

Speaking of which I missed the whole ceremony last week, but I guess I shouldn’t get started ranting and raving about work again. I’m sorry that this post has been nothing but complaining but I needed to get it off my chest and screaming in to a blog is much easier than screaming at my boss, and more productive too. One of these days I’ll win the lottery and kick back on some tropical beach somewhere with a drink in hand and the ocean soothing me to sleep. I can dream cant I?
