I never thought sitting would be so boring.  I’ve spent two days this week surfing youtube, reading the news over and over, and just walking around.  But there’s no actual work for me to do.  It’s strange.  I’m still finalizing this project, but we’ve come up to a bottleneck on waiting on other people for [...]

My job at the state is going pretty well.  We’re still very slow at the office, but I’m enjoying learning how to do paperwork and learning more about my coworkers.  It’s rained the last few days so we haven’t had much construction going on, so we’ve been catching up on paperwork and reading spec books.
Yesterday [...]

It’s been a week since my dad’s been out here.  It was nice seeing him again, and it was a damn quick two days.  In retrospect, I probably should have had him come out for a little more than 2 days, maybe three, but I didn’t know if I could have taken the time of [...]

I quit my job last week.  Or rather, I turned in my notice and was content to wait out my two weeks in bliss, my spirits risen that I was getting out.  I guess it isn’t that easy to leave.
Kent got fired today while my dad was down.  I took the news seriously at first, [...]

Week From Hell!

This entire week has been absolutely terrible and pathetic.
Friday night, Danyale hit a pot hole or something, and damaged the car.  She doesn’t remember anything, but judging by the damage to the wheel, and the fact the tie rod broke Sunday, it did a lot of damage.  I had to turn the damn thing in [...]

Tuesday was one of my days off—the only two days I really look forward to in any given week.  So instead of spending my free time playing aimlessly on World of Warcraft this week, I had to go a stupid High Impact Coaching Class.
The idea of High Impact Coaching, transforming managers into better leaders, is [...]

Management Sucks

I need out.
Kansas, just like Indiana has become boring, and I’m becoming uneasy and restless here.  As much as I just want to get up and leave, I have no idea where to go.  Would I go back to Indiana?  Should I head west?  Where would I end up?
Work is continually frustrating, and the next [...]

I talked to my dad today for probably forty minutes, which a rarity these days.  Usually I only call him while on the way to work, and we’ll chit chat for the twelve minutes it takes to drive from my house to work.   I miss talking to him sometimes, and it’s nice once in a [...]

For Whom The Bell Tolls

I was looking forward to the 21st, which would have been my last day as a manager, but now I’ve agreed to wait until September 3rd to step down, just so Kent can visit his kid in Iowa.  I suppose it’s only an additional two weeks, but I was really looking forward to just driving [...]

It’s official.  I’m totally burned out from work.  Any desire I had left, has been yanked out of my body and sold off for the tune of $6.50 per hour.  Everyday is a battle to just get up, and get out the door to head to work.  I really, really, really, need to find something [...]
