Jim and Pam

Did you watch The Office yesterday? I missed a few minutes but I recorded it.  Did you noticed that Michael was acting semi normal.  I totally did not expect that Jim was going to propose to Pam on the first episode back.  I can’t wait for next week’s episode I hope it’ll be an hour.

Freaking Work

I went to work today feeling pretty good too bad that didn’t last all that long. By midday I wanted to walk out and by day’s end I was asked if I wanted a full time position.  What a roller coaster of a day.  If things were different maybe the position would be appealing to me but I don’t think I’ll be taking it. 

Jim and Pam

It’s Valentine’s Day for Jim and Pam.  Check out their Valentine’s Day video featuring the song “Cupids Chokehold.”  FYI, the strike is over hope to see new episodes soon.  Check out the video.

The Office Music Video

I like watching the Sims music video and now I have found The Office music video. Check it out. It’s Getting Hot In Here - Scranton Style.

Apply at Dunder Mifflin

How long do we have to wait for “The Office” to start again?! I enjoy watching reruns but… I need something new. Maybe I should just close my eyes and picture myself working @ Dunder Mifflin and answering the phone, “Dunder Mifflin this is Zara” and constantly glancing over to the desk across and smiling @ my co-worker, Aj. How fun it would be! And it actually could because you can apply to Dunder Mifflin. I’ll go directly to Scranton and drop off my resume. Yes, an excuse to drive up to Scranton and see the places they show at the beginning of each episode.

Maybe I’ll get the Dunder Award.

Boss to English Traslation

Boss-to-English Translator

From “Cube Monkeys: A Handbook for Surviving the Office Jungle”

“Headquarters has assured me we will not be affected by the merger.”
Translation: “You are going to be fired.”
 

“I’m not sure if what you are suggesting is in alignment with our core competencies.”
Translation: “What exactly do we do again?”

This office is a family and my door is always open if you ever need to powwow with Papa Bear.”
Translation: “I am a tool.”
 

“I’ll be out of the office for a couple hours with senior management, but you can reach me on my mobile.”
Translation: “I’m playing golf.”
 

“I’ll be off-site and unreachable for the rest of the afternoon.”
Translation: “I’m playing golf and I expect to be very, very drunk.”

Hate your job?

Do you hate your job?  Don’t stress, you’re not alone.  There are a bunch of sites and forums that are all about hating your job.  People might stay just quit, but it’s not that simple for some.  Some people are so stressed from their current job that they don’t have the energy to be upbeat at an interview.  Maybe we should just sit on the floor not do any work and demand what we want.  For example at my job there are many changes going on, one being insurance but no one tells us anything about it.  I left a note on the desks of both the office manager and the directer indicating they let us know what’s going on.  Do they not think it’s important for us to be informed?  Or do they not know how to do their jobs?  I’ll pick the latter. 

If you want to vent or read others like you that hate their jobs check, Why my job sucks.

Office Drama

I have read so many blogs about people hating their jobs.  Imagine if we could all work doing what we liked, we would truly be happier people.  Is there any place on this earth that this is attainable?  I would be there in a heartbeat.  I ‘ve worked a few jobs and there is always drama.  I guess the drama could be interesting, it keeps the day going.  My job isn’t that bad the only big problems is there is no room for advancement.  As for management…drama.  Right now we’re short staffed and not much is being done, typical.  Come September let’s see what happens.  I guess  I have to look at it like this, I’ll be working extra and making some extra money. 

Late to Work

Creative excuses you might tell your boss your late(courtesy from MSN careers):

2. My dog dialed 911, and the police wanted to question me about what “really” happened.
 

3. My girlfriend got mad and destroyed all of my undergarments.
 

4. I woke up and thought I was temporarily deaf.
 

5. I just wasn’t “feelin’ it” this morning.
 

6. I was up all night arguing with God.
 

7. A raccoon stole my work shoe off my porch.
 

8. I super-glued my eye thinking it was contact solution.
 

9. I was putting lotion on my face when my finger went up my nose causing a nose bleed.
 

10. A prostitute climbed into my car at a stop light, and I was afraid my wife would see her and think I was messing around… so I got out of the car.
