Jun. 22nd, 2006 08:51 pmAn update of sorts...
Workplace continuing to fuck with my head. I went to pick up my paycheck today and as per usual, went to the receptionist's desk. She gave me a look of surprise and said, "Are you still working here?" Well, yes, as far as I know. Since I heard confirmation today that they're planning on downsizing my department, this was exactly what I didn't need to hear. The receptionist hurriedly went on to explain that they only keep the paychecks of departed employees at the front desk and everyone else's are with HR. This isn't true as I've been getting them at the front desk for weeks, specifically so I can avoid having to track down the rather obnoxious HR lady. But whatever. I go back to HR and fortunately, the HR lady's in her office, for once. She cackled when she gave me my check (WTF), which could be apropos of nothing, but feels like a bad omen just the same.
Needless to say, I'm not at all feeling happy in regards to the work front. It was a good job once. . . *shrug* but once they sold the company to the new owners, it's just been downhill. Half the department has already quit, so really, there's not much left for them to downsize. One would hope. My fingers are crossed that I can get off the sinking ship in time.
Anyhoo on Tuesday night, I dreamt I was on a game show and they had on Anne Coulter, who was debuting her singing career. I immediately ran over and began beating the crap out of her. When she grabbed my hands to keep me from banging her head against the wall, I attempted to choke her with my feet, à la Mystique from the X-Men movies. And the whole time I kept yelling, "It's for the good of the country!" I seriously hope that's the last time I have a dream involving Anne Coulter.
