I felt like Mary Tyler Moore yesterday. I have been annoyed, frustrated, and downright annoyed with work. I mean, so far it’s just a place I have to go to everyday. I didn’t even really have a desk. Now I do. And I have stuff too. Like a stapler (though, it’s not red) and pens and Post-Its. Granted, these new items were not obtained until the end of the day…but still…
Office supplies made things a little better. But to be honest, it’s still irritating. I’m giving it time, though. As I sat at my desk yesterday afternoon, I couldn’t help but feel a bit overwhelmed; you see, they’ve been throwing information at me left and right. It’s sort of like being repeatedly pegged with small pebbles. After a while, it just hurts, man! But I kept thinking to myself that I’m going to make the best of it…at least for a while. And I started humming the theme song to the Mary Tyler Moore Show (“you’re gonna make it after all…”). I wish I had something to throw in the air. Maybe my new stapler?
After it comes down on my head, maybe they will let me go home early?
I’m sick of training, dude. If I have to sit through another day of this, I may just go out of my mind. Someday, the future holds great things…like a pill or something that you could take instead of sitting through endless hours of crap.
But it’s not the future. It’s now. And I have to go train now. Later…
hey Mr. Aaron….. In a few months, you will look back on this and think “Oh, it wasn’t THAT bad.” So just try to get through it as best as you can and keep praying that I end up in training in two weeks and we can commiserate together. :)
