Update:
Work is going ok. My boss (Carol) who started 2 weeks before me is totally clueless! I am not exaggerating! I do 80% of the work! Its just the two of us and then a part-timer (Jamie) and its really frustrating that I am doing everything and she gets the credit for it. She even admits that she isn't cut out for the job. I'm surprised they hired her because she told me that she and her husband owned a Subway and a Coffee Shop and BOTH business went Bankrupt! Hummm....
Anyhow, Jamie suggested that we bring this to our bosses (Stacy) attention because its not fair that I do all the work among other things...and boy did we have a long list..well apparently they already knew the things that were going on because on Friday Stacy made a surprise visit and had Carol sign a 30 extension on her 90 day probation. After Stacy left, Carol was so upset and said that she is looking for a new job. Then yesterday she told me she has an interview tonight. If she takes another job then I will most likely be asked if I want the Manager's position. I do the job anyhow so I might as well, but then again I'm not sure if I want the responsibilities of the manager....sign....I guess I will just have to wait and see! I'll keep you posted!
Ozzie is such a beautiful cat! Our cats are bedtime snugglers. We have four cats and four daughters, so the cats never bother with me. Our German Shepherd won't let them near me anyway, so it's just as good. I hope you get the management job if it's what you really want. It would be nice to have someone competent at the helm.What field is your job in? You may have mentioned it before I became a reader or I may have read right over it while one of my little ladies was asking me something.:)
ReplyDeleteOzzie is gorgeous! I love snuggle time with our kitties too, but can't indulge in the mornings any longer since I have to drive my 10th grader to school and we leave the house at 6:30 AM! UGH.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the job situation!
Awwww...Ozzie is adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the job.Sending you positive manager vibes!!! You got this!
I love it when a cat sleeps with me. Ours sleep with the kids every night. I have dozens of photos just like yours here. So cute.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the job, and if you get the manager's position, and you're already doing it, think of it as more pay for what you're already doing. Hope it works out.
How sweet Ozzie is. Such a nice way to wake up.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'd be great as a manager; you've been managing your home for years. It would be nice is more pay came with the official title.

Ozzie is just too cute. :-) I don't let my cats in the bedroom (my husband's request)so I cannot snuggle with them too often. Alright, confession time....When my husband works a double I do sneak them in the bedroom for a little snuggle time. I always worry I'll fall asleep before he gets home and he will find all five of them in bed! :-)
ReplyDeleteSince you already do all the work, why not take the promotion? Hopefully the new title will come with a raise! :-) I am so happy things are going well for you.
I am glad things are heading in the right direction at work.
Ozzie is adorable .. our little furbabies bring so much joy.
ReplyDeleteHoping things work out for you as you would like them too!! HHL
Ozzie does look pretty huggable....
ReplyDeleteI sure hope your days get better at work, whatever it is that happens there.
Java, I hope u two don't sleep that close.. What about if u sneeze? my cat hates any loud noise, the last time I coughed or sneezed she gave that weird sound they do when they see a bird..lol... I do love how they nuzzle their head at my chin...
ReplyDeleteI'm sure things will work out on the job front. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI wish my cats snuggled like that. They tend to sleep on my legs so I can't move.
ReplyDeletePets are a true blessing. We no longer have a cat, but our soft coated Wheaton, Miss Daisy is a sweetie pie.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your job. By the way, what do you do?
How are the wedding plans coming?
Hugs,
Kat
I love that part of my day too... my cat Stella does the same thing.
ReplyDeleteAbout the job... I imagine you will make that decision based upon the pay. You already have a pretty good idea about what the job is, so there won't be very many surprises. It is then just a matter of weighing the pay against the responsibilities. If they pay you enough, it may be well worth it. If they don't, then you can take a pass on it. Of course, a manager's job is easier if they hire good employees. If you are the manager, would you have a say in that process? That might be a negotiating point. I would think about the other things I would want, too, that are outside of salary that could be negotiable, but would make a huge difference in the job for you.
ReplyDeleteFunny - I spend my first 10 minutes cuddling my dog..... rubbing her ears and scratching her belly and sniffing her paws (don't ask)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the manager position. Sounds like you are already there anyway!
Java: I am an animal lover. They do have intuition even women can't trump. It pays to step back and be cautious with the manager's position. What would Ozzie do?
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cat, Java! My husband and I have a Chartreuse cat named Caressa who keeps us happy. She sometimes sleeps with us and is an amazingly affectionate cat. It looks like your cat is like that, too!
ReplyDeleteI hope all goes well with your job and wedding preparations!

A note on the job: Managers lose alot of friends. There's a fine line between telling an underlink what to do and telling a friend what to do.
ReplyDeleteJust a thought....
Kitties are great alarm clocks. Mine never let me oversleep. They always know when it's time to wake up!
you and kitty look very happy. work demands to break this up. sorry. sorry to hear about the co worker. if she leaves and you get the opportunity as a manager, then go for it if you feel this is what you want. rose
ReplyDeleteMy dog Jazzi has a morning ritual, too!! She also has a 6th sense about my moods and is RIGHT THERE when I am down. Pets really do make life more livable!! (((HUGS)))
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet cuddling cat! Lovely way to start the day and I can totally relate to how much you'd like to stay there for just 5 or 10 minutes more! Hope all works out well at your job. It's certainly not fair that you are doing all the work and your "manager" is obvious getting paid more but doing much less! At least it is obvious to Stacy what is really happening!
