I'm on a new shift at work. This is the shift I have been wanting since day 1. 7:30-4:30. I haven't really adjusted to it. Especially since my overtime is in the AM, so that means I'm often there at 6. Every night this week I've fallen asleep before 8:30pm (except on Wednesday, I managed to see Project Runway.) It's 7 and I'm sitting here yawning my head off.
This week:
The Good:
My insurance deduction went down by a lot.
Our dental coverage doubled.
I became eligable for and enrolled in our 401K program.
I found out that as of now they have no intention of hiring a Web Designer/Video Producer to do the job I am doing 'temporarily.' (Yeah!)
I made a fantastic spot for World Trade Center (if I say so myself)
Also they are considering having me as senior technical consultant. Which will get me off a lot of the calls I hate doing.
I got a shiny new monitor.
I found out that I still have all five of my sick days. Which means I will have lots of time off beginning in September.
The Bad:
I'm going to the allergist for a scratch test to find out what new and fun allergy I have.
We have a new person in our department who is irritating in the extreme. Very sweet but OMG. Bet he was always picked last for games.
The Very Very Bad
The 12 year old son of one of our construction guys died suddenly and none of us knew until after the funeral because he doesn't speak english and he didn't come into the office to tell our HR person until the next day. So sad.
