WOW! The Difference a Day Can Make

I love Thursdays. I figure I better make up for the negative post and make sure that everyone who reads this knows that life is still rocking over here. It’s amazing what a day can do. Yesterday was Thursday, and it was fantastic. We actually got busy for a while and I had a chance to start showing off my mad support staff manager (a.k.a. hallway) skills. That’s good because according to Napoleon Dynamite, “Girls only like guys who have skill.” Now, I have nowhere near the drawing skills of Napoleon, and you really shouldn’t let me into the kitchen to bake a cake like Pedro, but I’ve got some deep down inside. Anyway. I got props from all the higher ups in the company that I was doing a great job. Not that I feel accomplished, I just like that I am now in sync enough with them for them not to be able to find fault. These guys are huge fault finders and the fact that I got complements mean that after they searched long and hard to find something, anything amiss, they could not and had to result to compliments. SWEET!

I think Thursday went a little better after an hour and a half argument that ensued between the managers and one of the buyers on Wednesday night. No one was privy to the information, but we herd parts through closed doors. The end result was a mutual decision of termination. Because these guys are all family or at least friends from their home word back in MN, I doubt he will be gone for more than a month. But it did wake the managers up that there is not much oversight of the buyers.

Ahhh. Friday morning and I am happy to report that even with the time zone change I am finally back to my 6am wakeup routine. I lost it for a while when I first moved to Dallas. After I got it back, being on the road stripped it away from me again. Now, here I am on the East coast and waking up at 6am. When I get back to Dallas, I will get another hour of sleep!

I hope all is well with everyone else.

Now that Wednesday is over, I got to move through Thursday

I still feel bad for Wednesday because he’s the fall guy. Though I am sure the rest of the week thoroughly appreciates him because he makes them look so much better.
