Benson, I didn’t read the OT until late last night. Sorry to get back to you so late. I don’t think this weekend will be good for our tour. I got a holiday free lance assignment job that’s due on Tues, and I’ll need the time. But that’s good, as I need the money almost as much as I need new pix. I really would like to go at some point, so please find a date that works for you. Thanks for the offer!
Just to clarify, while it was one of the country’s top law firms, when I say “Triple Type AAA”, I’m NOT referring to the quality of the firm but to the exponential Type A personalities of the partners and the firm’s management.
We had some total BS HR informational meeting this morning. One of my coworkers had wanted to leave early for her vacation, but was told it was an important meeting.
Opening line from HR rep:
“I have no agenda. I’m just hear to answer any questions. Does anyone have any questions?”
CGar, as I said yesterday, if they dont give you a juicy bonus to make all this bs “worth it”, get another gig. cause soon you’ll lose some more weight and it wont be via dieting or working out but via elevated stress
Is it the company or is it that weird cult of “I work harder than you”? Being a well-adjusted person at osme of those places must be the rarest thing in the world.
I think there’s less quality of life here than at any other job I’ve ever had, and that’s saying a lot because I worked at one of the top Triple Type AAA law firms, but this place definitely trumps that place.
There is just no good reason that most of what is being done today has to be done today. I’m not talking about the trades while the market is open. I’m talking about all the other stuff that has nothing but artificial deadlines attached.

These big companies just don’t care. They all say they care about “quality of life” but they don’t.
Not back to work for more than a month and already complaining. 😛
Hilarious jokes plusas, keep em coming. It’s like the mob, once they get made they’re thinking easy living/I’m acomplished.
“My manager was supposed to leave at noon for her kid’s school holiday play. Well, she’s still here, so I guess work trumped the kid?!?!?!”
