A New Year and Back To Work
I'm dreading going back to work tomorrow. The year has changed. That means I have to catch up all the filing, move the 2009 files and start over with 2010. Filing is at least 2 weeks backed up, this is due to people being off over the holidays. See there are at least 2 people I cover for when they are off - who am I kidding, I'm the only one that covers for anyone when they are off. Since all their work ends up in the file room, it is a disadvantage to me to not do their work...but covering another job means my own backs up. No one else helps out; oh I get offers - but for some reason those offers are never carried through with.
That is one of the reason I take no advice when it comes to the files. No one else wanted the job, everyone thinks it's too beneath them to file and well why would I want to take their advice on filing? Please do the job before offering advice.
The other dread at returning to work is that we only had to work 3 days last week; they gave us Thursday & Friday off and let us go early on Wednesday. The one lady I cover for was off the whole week. She'll come back to piled up work just from the holidays - but she'll view it as *I* not doing anything for her (it won't matter that I wasn't there). She'll not speak to me for at least 2 days, and whine behind my back. Actually spending this week in the file room really doesn't seem so bad anymore.
Hubby and I have spent the past 2 days watching the first season of True Blood. I've seen it, but he hasn't (he's only caught bits and pieces of season 2 when I was watching it). I really love this show and am looking forward to season 3 (not sure when that'll start). Hubby seemed to enjoy it as well. Yeah, it was a lazy weekend, but every once in a while you just need one.
No "official" resolutions this year - they seem so useless.
