busy making money

I’m getting swamped at work this week. I’ve got some new stuff to report, but it’ll have to wait until I’ve extinguished a few fires first. Just to avoid a two line entry, I’ve included a mini-rant that makes fire fighting frustrating.

I’ve mentioned working in a corporate office with all sorts of procedures and policies. I hate it with a passion. I can’t stand the thumb-pressing and constant micromanaging that happens in my department. It does nothing but adds more work to my limited schedule and makes me surly. Yes, surly. Since I don’t feel that I’m in a career advancement mode and am merely buying time till we move and I can leave, I don’t feel obligate to hide my frustration with this process. However, that ain’t the best way to work and I’m constantly needing to recheck my reactions, facial expressions, and outcries of disbelief (”what!? that ain’t happening.”). But today, things are just really getting under my skin because this office is full of subtle, passive aggression and constant little stabs at making others look bad. Yeah, it’s a non-profit organization, but one where getting to the top is more important than getting things done. Mini-rant concluded.
