Happy monday morning...
Apr. 25th, 2005 08:55 pmSo, I found the new office building, found parking (not that easy, let me tell you!) and walked up to my brand new office.
I could tell it was bad news when the door still said "supplies" on it.
I've been moved to a closet.
It's a big closet, though!
Which is why they put three people in it.
I spent most of the day in an ADHD haze, which, really, isn't that surprising.
My monitor is about six inches more than resting-arms' length from my face, there is no room to kick back, no room to spread out, and no desk space not taken up by monitors. I had a two monitor setup, but I think I'll change that... I still won't have any *room* though, because the monitor is too deep and the desk is too small. if I want to take notes, I either need to put a clipboard in my lap, or use the desk surface to the side of the monitor (meaning I have to keep shifting position).
It's the final indignity of this job, and it's too damn much. I'm looking for other work.

Date: 2005-04-26 06:56 pm (UTC)It doesn't matter; it's a contract job, I hate the job, I hate the contract I'm working under, and the only issue is that I can't quit, because of the loss of unemployment.
I am quite open about announcing that I'm looking for another job, and I will be asking my boss pointed questions ("Isn't that something you should discuss with my replacement?"), so I can hope that they start interviewing someone else, and decide to get rid of me.
