Let the fun begin

Today was the first day of life at work without Mr. Complaint. He had the ^&*%&##$%!! to come in to work this morning after being told specifically not to yesterday afternoon. Some people just don't listen. Suffice it to say he was quickly sent on his way. Long commute for him to make for nothing.

When you work in a really small company any change in staff affects everyone. So his absence will affect us all until they hire some more people to replace him. Yesterday we were asked to tell senior management what happened from our perspective and today our comments became official as incident reports were filed. The owner of the company talked to each of us individually about the incident, too. My interview came today - just as I was getting ready to leave for the day at 5 PM. When the owner of the company asks you if you have a minute - the prudent thing to do is say yes, even if you don't.

It was nice to get out at 5 PM today, even if I didn't actually drive out of the parking lot until 5:50 PM. After three consecutive days of working 12 hour shifts, I was tired!! The last because I was fillng in for Mr. Complaint, who couldn't work it for obvious reasons. Good thing tomorrow is a half day, followed by a long weekend!
