Part Time.

I�m writing this tonight, or tomorrow night, because I�ll post it tomorrow morning, or this morning... that time is misleading.

My patience level with Diaryland is now non existent. The fact that Andrew actually took the time to update his own diary, the fact that I have now gone three weeks without hearing back on my multiple requests, the fact the server move is happening now instead of after those of us on the West Coast could update, the fact that it�s become over run with slobbering, misspelling morons, the fact that even when Andrew�s shit is together, the hosting place falls apart, the fact that I�m writing this in word at a reasonable hour, combined with the fact that I have really nothing to say leads me to believe my updates and my general activity on Diaryland will be significantly less than it was before.

In fact, I�m asking for a refund on my remaining time as a super gold member. I�ve gone nearly a month not having the benefits that has to offer, and I�ve noticed I can�t really care about it. I�m paying for server space else where, and I�m certainly not paying to be pissed off every time I want to do something.

Doesn�t any one remember the last time these types of problems happened? It wasn�t that long ago, my friends. If Dipshitland was up, I�d check the date right now.

Diaryland, once upon a time, was a lovely place to channel all of my obsessive behavior on to myself, into analyzing every action, reaction, and non action. I�ve found over the last couple of months, I don�t have anything left to figure out.

I�m pretty comfortable with myself. I know how I work, what pisses me off, what makes me swoon.

And, I finally have something resembling a life.

I also have a greater calling than what would be a tiny text box on an absolutely ugly purple page.

In conclusion, I�m not giving this up. I�m simply not making it my life any more.

Now, for my real entry:

Things I Learned Today At My New Job:

1. How to spell subpoena.
2. I�m pretty.
3. My intelligence was greatly under estimated.
4. People can be nice and helpful at work when they are treated well and with respect. I think I�ve found something close to that there.
5. People should believe me when I say I�m never going to do something again. Read: I�m never getting back on the phones again.
6. I am very, very low maintenance.
7. No matter how big the company, no matter what kind of company, if there�s someone called �President�, there is someone with an ego trip. The United States included. (side note: Why don�t they have democratic company heads? And not that �board of members� bullshit either.)
8. I�d rather have old fashioned and straight forward than progressive and under handed (read: Wells Fargo).
9. I wish my brain didn�t automatically start figuring out ways to make things easier the second I look at a spread sheet. Ack!

And, finally... 10. I learned how to spell subpoena.
