Good Morning
I haven't posted in a few days cause I'm working on a different shift and I'm trying to get used to the new sleep pattern. I know going to work at 3:30 and working til 11:30pm shouldn't be that much of a problem but I've worked early early for 20 years so I automatically try to fall asleep about 9 or 10. lol
I have been temporarily transfered to the QA department where I work covering for a lady that is out sick. I should be working this department for a few weeks because I cover for vacations as well.
Its really such a hassle .................... much better pay and I have to drive a golf cart instead of walking. OHHHHHHHHH the inhumanity of it all !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO
I really like this department its very small and everyone is easy to get a long with. The boss is outstanding and very understanding, and they eat constantly. Someone brings in cake or something yummy almost everyday, and they have a potluck almost every week.Now what more could you ask for? Oh ya I have a desk and a computer with internet access.
I would love to be in this department permanently but I can't get anyone to quit. Gee I wonder why?? ROFLMAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I'm at work I try to vary my activities as much as possible because working on the lines are soooooooooo boring. I do lots of safety work, I'm on two safety teams. One for Ergonamics and one that writes safety job discriptions, its called JSA. I also do most any special project that i can for my supervisor. Last year I did a project that controled and tracked our Non-consummable material........... thats a fancy term for the tape and stuff we use that we don't keep track of. lol
I have also done power point training presentations and announcements in our weekly production meetings. lol Like i said most anything that will get me off those damn lines. lol
I was thinking about this just the other day and realized I've always been like this at every job I've ever had. When I worked in dietary in the hospital in Ky. I started by serving meals to the patients and 8 years later i was also working on the cafeteria serving line and doing clerical work and cashiering. I was responsible for the Doctors cafeteria, doing special functions like luncheons and meetings and being the lead for the production lines that plate the patients food. I was still filling in as Hostess serving patient meals occasionally as well.
I don't know why I'm like this but I always have been. It started way back in High school. When I was a freshman I thought study hall was boring so I asked to work in the cafeteria that hour. lol By the time i was a senior I was in charge of the teachers cafeteria and did a little bit of everything that was connected to the cafeteria in anyway, of course it was a small school compared to most city school. It only had between 300 and 400 students so there wasn't a lot to it but it did take up about 3 of my hours a day.
Maybe I just get bored easily ....... or as my sister always said I like to boss people around!!!!
I have found that a lot of people hold themselves back because they just won't speak up and I have never been afraid of that. I really communicate well and thanks to a class they made us take when i worked at the hospital I'm a certified NICE PERSON!!!!!!!!!!! Now how many people can say that? But it has made it easy for me to get along well with people that are in supervisory postions.
I see this is getting pretty long so i better shut up for a while, but I'm sure I will be back soon.
