November 15 Because it's been nearly a month... I really should write something. But what? Hmm... Really, nothing exciting has been happening. At least nothing I would expect anyone else to be interested in. My life is the same old same old. Still don't have any permanent employees at work, but I now have 2 really decent temps and my boss says he's "in negotiations" to get them hired. One is the young man I wrote about before, the other is another young man who isn't as chatty as the first. Thought I was in big trouble a little over a week ago because the boss called to tell me about a meeting. Then, when I called another kitchen manager about it the next morning her reply was "what meeting", which led me to believe it was a meeting with just me and the boss. Boy, was I relieved when 4 other managers arrived. Turns out, only those of us who were actually still at work when he called were "invited" to the meeting. Guess there's been a lot of signing out at one time but leaving much earlier. We don't do that at my kitchen - not because I'm a stickler for rules, I just don't want to get fired or suspended for something stupid. Then, early last week, the boss came over for a couple things and on two different occasions, smiled and gave me the thumbs up sign. This leads me to believe he thinks I'm doing okay. I can live with that because there's been a LOT going on with the kitchen managers. My old boss was demoted, another km was demoted, one was suspended for three days, and just this past Friday another one was suspended. The two who were demoted was due to the fact they couldn't do the paperwork or the work the computer. The first one who was suspended was due to arguing with a student. I have no clue what happened with the one most recently suspended - especially since the rumor was that she was fired (I asked the boss and his only response was "she wasn't fired". I didn't ask for details.) Oh, yeah, our boarder is moving back to Michigan. He's leaving this coming up Saturday -just before Thanksgiving. He's concerned about his mother's mental health. He doesn't really want to leave, and we don't mind having him here, but he's gotta do what he feels is right. What else to ramble about? Nothing, really. Amazing, when I don't have anything to bitch and whine about, I have nothing to write. Don't get me wrong, life is not all sunshine and candy, but compared to what I was living, this is a slice of heaven. Seriously, when I used to have to keep quiet just to not stir anything up, it's wonderful to be able to say anything and not worry that it's going to lead to a huge out of control fight. Most times, when I bitch about anything, I'm met with silence - but not the kind of silence that pisses me off; the kind where I know I've made my point and/or may have pushed a little too far, in which case I apologize when the tantrum has passed and sanity returns. So, again, I'm alive and well. You know, in case anyone didn't know. And, like I wrote before, I can be found on Facebook. If you know my e-mail, you can even send a friend request. Take care.
