WORK REVIEW

I had my review for work on Wednesday. I was a little dissapointed I didn't get a raise this time; not due to me performance thankfully. They started me out higher than they normally do, guess they were desperate to get someone in there lol. Also they gave me a raise at 2 mos instead of now - can't complain about that. I will qualify for another on my next review in 6 mos. so that will work for me.

I'm still liking the job - working on my time management/getting all tasks completed in timely fashion. I'm a perfectionist when it comes to my job so I tend to go a little slower at first to perfect the task. Once I feel I've gotten something down that's not a problem. I should be able to improve within the 6 mos. Also they keep adding things for me to do. I love it for that reason - I'm constantly learning something about that place. Last night I volunteered for OT in the warehouse doing inventory. I got to go up on the forklift/pallet - I'm afraid of heights so that was scary at first, by the end of the night I felt completely comfortable. I had a blast to hanging out with the guys too!!!

Fantasy football and the football pool at work is going well. I'm 1-1 for my team on our fantasy league and # 2 overall right now (after 2 weeks) with 24 right picks on the work football pool. I want that half tire with the football coming through!!!! I haven't actually seen it, but for bragging rights I WANT IT! So now I have to study and make my picks for the week. If you have any tips let me know - all information is useful information!!!! Chicago or the Vikings? I'm having a dilemma as a true Viking fan. I want to win but don't want to sell out my team. What's a girl to do?

Kids are good - we're going through a meltdown phase with Jarod recently - I don't think he's feeling well right now. I remember when I was little, it was hard to adjust to school starting. My responsibility is to make it better with a regular schedule etc.... That is the worst mothering skill I have. At least I'm aware of it and trying to make it better.

Dum d dum d dum (fingernails tapping the desk). That's it. Peace.
