Often the subject for a blog usually starts off with a ponder.
A thought.
A question that just pops in my head.
Why or what's that? How come blah...blah...blah?
If so & so is blah blah blah, then why is blah blah blah soooo so & so ?
Ya know, questions like that.
But then....I start to answer the questions.
From words and thoughts gathered in mind....to now verbalizing them out loud.......by myself.....
Sometimes at the beach.
On a hot day with the ocean breeze rushing back and forth on the shoreline.
At home. Chill'n. Sit'n in my massage chair. Look'n at the moving stars being projected on my ceiling.
Yes moving stars on my ceiling.
Doesn't everyone have moving stars on their ceilings? No? Oh well.
Tonight, I start pondering shit I need to say to the head honcho tomorrow...
It might start like this.....
"Hey mannnn. We need some offline pow wow talk. You gotta moment?"
(He's usually open to such pow-wows.)
(He's aware of my insightfulness and I believe appreciates my straightforwardness.
I can dig it.
So I go to sit down but not in-the-front-of-the-desk-chair but in the casual leather chairs from Pier 1 Imports.
I do this because this kind of seating arrangement demands the other persons full attention with an op that provides a minimum amount of distractions from the phone, email check-in, or someone just waltzing in unannounced)
Writing about this out loud helps me to demonstrate my point more effectively.
Awesome. I should do it more often.
NOT!
Anyways. So he comes from around his desk and sits across from me in the other leather chair facing each other with a coffee table in between us.
I'm sure this kat is wearing his slippers today.
Anyways...
"So here's the thing. For two positions in which I would be working with these two directly you would think I would at least get in on the question & answer session before they were actually hired?
That's only fair right?
I mean I dont have make the ultimate decision or any at all but would it just be fair to
have me in the process to work with two people of whom I would work with directly everyday?!!
(await answer)
No matter the reply.
Bottom line, this chick is bat-shit krayzee!!
Says everyone and everything is crazy but her.
Dare you to ask the question..."How's it going"
Her reply and her reply since the 3rd day she started the gig..."things are crazy here!"
My reply.
No it isn't.
Everything is in transition and we've made it so things do not ever have to be crazy.
Think about what you want to do. If it involves others, think about what their response may be and how it may provide insight...
....or kaos.
But you cant guess at their response. This is something that takes time.
Not a long time. Just time.
Being Observant.
Then execute.
Never fails.
She JUST dosen't have it.
I need not interact with her until she accepts that she needs to develop some serious technological and communicational skills if she wants to be successful within her present position...which I doubt she does.
Full of excuses.
The days of shit happens was over 1 1/2 ago.
The days of boo-boo's and blame game is done.
BTW, if she's part of yoga....I'm drop'n from it.
I took a yoga class on my birthday. Well no I didn't.
That's a lie. I wanted to but didn't get around to it.
But that's what I will say to "soften" the blow.
Yoga is quiet.
She is disruptive to my yoga.
She's out of yoga or I'm done.
Yoga is quiet.
It was so bad one time, I was ready to leave in the middle of the class.
I'm not sure what stopped me.
Anyways.
FLASH FORWARD to what really transpired.
A very shitty day!!
A day of sweaty running around, getting stuff done.
Everything I typed on what I was gonna say, was nullified by a suggestion to someone
who works closest to her.
And when I didn't think that would work, I simply told my boss....I'm drop'n the class if she's in it.
In addition, the someone closest to her met and chatted about the issue.
Home chick didn't take it so well.
WHO CARES!!!!!?!
It's disruptive to my evolvement.
I'm still amazed that she's still working within this organization.
Must be the niece of someone in power.
I must ask the question.
BUT....about today?
I just got in.
Plumbers, fire systems and alarm system snafus.
Triumphant victory on a bunch of co-workers who thought they were more clever than I.
Sucks for them.
The remainder of the year should be....entertaining.
