Blog me

I just got a two hour "Reasons I suck speech" from my boss. Second day in a row. And I know what you're thinking: you're blogging at work, clearly you DO suck. I don't blame you for assuming that.

I spend 50% of my day on hold. So, when I blog it's not taking time away from work: hell, I never go on breaks because of my hold time! So, no, that is not why I suck.

I suck because the file clerk I hired isn't a good telemarketer. She's an excellent file clerk and made my job easier to do by 1000%, but that's a luxury we can't afford. So that's my fault.

I suck because I'm getting married next year, I went on a three day vacation, and can't remember offhand the details of every one of our 350+ files when I am asked. Because I'm thinking about the marriage. Clearly.

I suck because I 'Only have two friends, and I hired them both to work here.'

I suck because I haven't been in this business for fifteen years, so I don't understand the nuances of finance.

I suck because when the previous manager died of a heart attack I couldn't do everything she could. Still can't.

What do you do with a B.A. in English, assorted positions at prestigious restaurants, and a year's experience at a law firm? Please tell me. I need to get out of here. I'm in a bad place right now. A very bad place.

Two more days till my play opens. Just under 11 months till my wedding (prospective!) day. Working on chapter four of the second part of my manuscript trilogy.
