I can tell it is going to be a bad day, when it is Hump Day.
Last night Cheer found a little puppy roaming the streets. She was small and looked well fed, so we did not want her to get hit by a car (we live on a fairly busy corner). We put her in the back yard and she howled all night. So I did not sleep much. (She has to go, as cute as she is, we already have 3 dogs and I can't take in anything else right now)
Anyway, I am just starting a new job. I was a temp and was hired as a permant person on Monday. There is one person in this medium size office who is not a happy person, he does not talk much and the only things he has said to me were very negative. I have tried to please him, and wouldn't you know that told me that I have to assist him when he needs me to. The only words he speaks are when he needs something, and then I usually do not do it to his satisfaction.
I have tried to say good morning to him, or smile when he is coming toward me in the hallway. He usually looks the other way.
I printed out a binder full of reports for him last week. I made a few mistakes. Rather than asking me politely to correct my errors. (it was my first time to print these reports) He came in and angrily chastised me and said that "it was not his job to review the printout, have I made myself clear" and then left the binder on my desk and walked out. Not so much of a thank you, sorry but or nothing.
Wep - it a hump day. The worst day of the week. Oh well, just smile and correct your mistakes and know that you are doing the best you can. Maybe next time, I will not make a mistake and he will think more of me.
I love my Job, I love my Job, I love my Job...... :)
