Work sucks

So...yeah...work continues to suck.

Currently all this week I'm working a 12pm-9pm schedule to help out since 2 of our night shift techs are on vacation all of this week. I agreed to do it to show that even though I am frustrated with this job...and wanting to find way to get out, that I was still willing to help out with the department and work back towards doing the best I could instead of just coasting by.

Plus it gets pretty dead in the evenings...so I can easily sit around and write, read, or watch a movie and not get bothered too much. I'm not saying I want to work this schedule permanently or anything, though. Personally I hate working past 5 or 6pm (though I hate waking up earlier than 10AM...I'm cursed I guess).

However I still hate my job....though I'm toughing through it at the moment. I did have a small mini-meeting with my manager today. He told me how much I was getting on my bonus this next paycheck...which wasn't much. I knew it wouldn't be that big of a bonus cause honestly I've been half-assing my job as of late. Sure enough it was less than I was hoping...but around what I expected. I also got told pretty much that I need to work on my stats and they need to show a drastic improvement by the end of the year or their could be consequences. I plan on doing better, but I also plan on trying to get out of this department ASAP cause...well I hate this department more than I hate the job that I do. I don't know. We'll see what happens.

But that's been my whole week...a whole lot of suck outside of those hours where things slow to a crawl and I have to struggle to keep myself busy with something.

To keep myself busy I've been watching whatever I can on Hulu.com. Everything from new episodes of various TV shows to whatever movies they offer on there. I've also come closing to finishing a script for a short film that will probably never get made for various reasons I don't want to go into. At this point it's just to keep me busy.


Next week everything will go back to my normal schedule and my normal hatred of the bullshit that goes on here.
