When all else fails and I'm scrambling for a subject lyric, I go to the Foo Fighters. They feature as one of the three bands that I've seen twice, with Adam Lambert and Garth Brooks. If I ever find out Dave Grohl is a trashfire human, I will be genuinely upset. I know some members of the band have issues, but Grohl would bother me.
All is pretty quiet over here. No word on any new resumes, nothing from 911. Hopefully today. As I've said on here many times, I'm not particularly patient, and the longer it drags out the more anxious I get. I found a statistic, not sure if it's correct, that the pass rate for the test is incredibly low. Less than 50%, as low as 70%. That kind of made me feel good. Less good, the dude bros on Reddit going "I didn't think it was that hard." Uh, fuck you, weirdo. That wast he hardest test I've ever seen, and I test well in general. (Granted, my test taking has been minimal for many years, so it's possible that I'm just out of practice.).
Today, work. Not expecting anything exciting. I'm just going to do my stupid little job, and dream of the day I can do a different stupid little job.
In IKEA gossip, one of the managers who's been there for 10 years said fuck this shit, I'm out and quit. Another two managers are moving to other positions elsewhere. 9 members of my 20 member team are looking, ten if you count our manager. I'm pretty sure the entire Staten Island team that handles the NY market is going to quit if we get put on the phones part time. It's going to be a goddamn shitshow, and I'm going to get popcorn and sit back. Honestly, if even our manager and I get a new job, it will be chaos. Especially if they don't promote someone from within the team.
We're about to debut a new way of working, splitting reports by geographic location, and if I depart, it throws it into total disarray. I honestly don't know what they would do in that case. They have a few "alternates," but they're mostly people who suck.
All three of the people who know how to run delivery updates are looking. And I don't think any of us will be giving two weeks.
I haven't decided on that yet. On one hand, I'm old and tradition is hard to break. On the other, I don't feel like I owe them jack or shit. Also, if it's the 911, the training starts in 19 days. It's going to be damned hard to give that much.
I guess we'll see when the time comes. Okay, time for me to get myself together. We've got Brindlewood Bay this evening, which I'm looking forward to. I missed last time on account of migraine, so I'm doubly excited for this one. Everyone have a splendiferous Wednesday!
