Definitely looking up!

I'm still checking around the job-sites to see if anything looks good but, for now, I'm taking a break from the job hunt since I know I won't be available for a couple of months anyway.  I'm going to call Nick today and make sure he's been able to check my references and try to get the official end-date for that position so that I know exactly what I'm going into and what I can plan ahead for.  But it is SO NICE to know that I'm DEFINITELY going to be employed through the fall.  It's only temp, but it's better than nothing.

On top of that, per got his loans in so HE'S feeling better, AND I get to help out at a booth at Gencon.  So all in all, yes, things are definitely looking up.  I feel good, and I kinda feel like I can relax a bit again.

I'm going to have to tighten my belt quite a bit to accomplish my financial goal for the next couple of months, or at least get close to it, but still, not being broke?  Way better. ;)  Getting to keep my apartment, being able to pay the bills... oh yeah.  That's nice feelings. =)  I was beginning to forget what money actually LOOKED like. ;)

On top of all of that, my current position is really cool. =)  The doctor was in the office yesterday and he's a lot of fun.  He gave me a couple of projects to finish up today so that I wouldn't be terribly bored, and then INSISTED on buying me a soda over at the gas station (he was going over to get himself one.)  How nice is that?   It is kindof a shame that this position only lasts a couple of weeks.  Even if I could work here full-time, though, it's pretty far from home and I think gas would probably be a bitch.  But, for now, it's pretty good stuff. =)  

I have to remember to call my temp agencies and let them know that I'm not going to be available for a couple of months, but that I may need something after that.  But who knows, maybe the Justice Agency will get its shit together by then and hire me. =)  How cool would THAT be? =D

Thanks still for all your spells, prayers, and happy thoughts. =D

Love,

Good boss vs. bad boss

So I've mentioned that at my 2 week posting here at the hearing aid place, my boss is only here two days out of the week.  He calls in regularly and I get little assignments now and then, but largley, I'm on my own up here.  But, to be honest, I wouldn't mind at all if he were here.

I thought about it this morning as I was calling people to reschedule appointments.  There was a file that I hunted and hunted and hunted for and just couldn't FIND.  I called the other office to see if the doctor was there and if he might know where it was, but he'd already left to do some in home appointments.  So I decided to hunt for his cell phone number.

And, in the search for his cell phone number, found the file I'd been looking for.  On top of my desk.  I completely forgot that I'd called the guy yesterday to let him know that his insurance came through.

Now, had I been back at Glenn's office, he'd have been disgusted, rolled his eyes, or even yelled.  Karen would have done similar.  Regardless of the fact that BOTH of them make the same kind of silly mistakes all of the time.

I was alone in the office today, but had the doctor been here?  He'd have just laughed at me.  Probably moreso when I told him that I'd lose my head if it weren't attached.

I don't know what my next posting is going to be like, but this one has been a nice reminder that there ARE good bosses out there.

And I am SO GLAD I don't work for that verbally abusive jerk anymore.

Love,
Crystal
