Rambling with Steven
Mar 15

I haven’t had huge amounts of time because of a project at work but I think it will be done later this month. I’ve been carving through several old archives and getting some ideas for updated press releases. I’ll hopefully be blogging a bit more once I get this project done.

Perhaps the toughest part of my job is having to please multiple people in the company. What makes it worse is when they’re at odds with each other and take it out on you. Have you ever had this happen to you?

Rough Day At Work Today

Today was a rough day at work. First of all, we had a staff meeting right at 9:00 AM which meant I had to fight traffic to get there right on time. Corporate honchos bored us with their new mission statement for a couple of hours. Sometimes I wonder if these guys, who run a multi-million dollar corporation, know anything about marketing, especially to their own employees.

Then, one of the urinals in the main men’s room began spewing out water. They had to shut down water to the whole floor for several hours while the plumber came and fixed whatever was wrong with. Luckily it was lunch time for me so I went over to the BK, where, of course, they screwed up my order. What a surprise.

After lunch, I had a vendor call and they were being a real butthead. I don’t want to go into details but it was over something trivial.

Now that I’m home I’m going to have a couple of beers and relax.
