Shift Change... 10 Minutes
Jul. 1st, 2005 07:43 pm
Hee hee, we got our shift changed to 9 - 7 from 9:30 - 7:30. I don't know why, but that last half hour just kills me. I mean, yeah, I'm still working the same number of hours, but it's easier to kill time early in the evening opposed to killing time later in the morning. Technically, I can clock out at 6:45, as long as I clock in by 8:45. But I don't technically have to start working til 9, so I've got 15 minutes to get water, hit the bathroom, gossip, etc. Next week I've got a 7-day work-week due to shift change. I've re-orchestrated my entire life for the next 6 months or so just to get out of Rob's sister's wedding.
I think I forgot to e-mail my reports this morning. But no one called me all day, so maybe I didn't. But our hotel manager got fired on Tuesday, & the new guy was there this morning, so maybe it's just been so hectic & chaotic that no one noticed... I don't know for certain, I just have to check my 'outgoing mail' box when I get to work.
We need a better microwave. I've gotten & gotten rid of about 5 or 6 food-nukers in the past few years, mainly because I never used them. Rob has come to accept tv dinners, tho, and some of the tv dinners out there are actually pretty decent & relatively additive-free, especially Healthy Choice... In this house's microwave, a 5-min tv dinner takes 15 to heat up thoroughly.
I've been feeling better lately. Still not fully motivated, still not inspired or creative, but more cheerful. It's a mean cheerfulness, but it's still cheerfulness. Last year, when the MGM corp first put the bid in for Mandalay Bay Resorts, I could sense change, great change... Everyone was skeptical - no one believed that they would waltz in & reorganize. But I can smell change even in minute amounts. The word from the underground was that Friesen would be staying on - but Tuesday afternoon the security guards escorted him off property. One of our graveyard CIT people had her last day last night. I was chanting 'sabotage! sabotage! But wait til after our dateroll finishes!' Pam was happy to have a good send-off from at least one person.
It's hard to understand how I feel because I don't really have a 'ground' state. Like psychonauts, you have to start sober in order to fully analyze what a substance is doing to you - I don't have emotional 'sobriety', a control factor, with which to measure changes.
