My week sucked....

[texaschickeee]

I work at a state funded substance abuse program, and am the lead in the out patient program. Not really too bad of a gig but you know sometimes its just WTH is next. This is not totally employment related- but mostly.

I got to work Monday. New client coming from a housing program, the manager called me and said she would have all the info shortly for me to do the admission. The women is a BBBBBB and "ye that bangs the CEO" gets what she wants. My computer crashed as the admission was going on. I told the guy I would finish it later no biggie. Called IT and went about my day of groups. (the housing program is on property so I can access the guy when I need hm.)
Well the manager wanted the admission print out. Went ape sh!t when I told her it was not completed at this time. Then the reason. Well......next up I had my manager call me and question it. It ended with me telling my manager that if he wanted to complete the admission for me he was welcome to do so. I had 3 faxs and 2 calls to return before I could even see if the computer was fixed. Pissed him off but he left me alone.

Tuesday- Mom not feeling well (She is 72 and lives alone. Dad died a little more then 4 years back and she is in a regular apartment and has fallen 3 times in the past 2 years) . So I go over there during lunch, and she has the flu I think. ago back to work get all from above completed and delivered with the nice smart azz comment from said manager.
:mad:
Wednesday- the freaking AC blew out Tuesday night and its so hot the floor is sweating. ITs like walking into an oven. At 100 its cooler outside then inside. you get my drift. My client show up and get credit and get to go home ASAP. (I have 20 on my roll at this time. 12 are HIV+ and one is pregnant. NOt the peeps you need to have sitting in the heat)
Well, I go to Mom's house when my boss tells me to scram until later.(He tells me to come back and hit the phone one last time before I leave. free day off). Mom is better but still on soup. I am so hot I am sick; my car had a low tire so I fill it (see Friday) and its just a day. :eek:
Thursday I get to talk to HR about said manager as now we have complaints about said person and guess what....I get to have her investigated due to this being an on going process between her and me. I avoid her like the plague and she does anything to instigate crap between us.

Friday- get called right before groups- you have a half flat tire. I get air after groups and on the way to Mom's place. I shop for her on Fridays (as I take the list and get meds, food and anything else she needs)
Well, She looks at my tires. My front tires have wires coming out of the rubber. The back one has been driven on at least three times half flat and so she says we MUST go get tires. (I am broke and tell her that)
300 dollars and 3 new tires later......I got home and crashed. I got up this AM walked the dog, checked on my injured neighbor that I have been shopping for (she has a cracked pelvis and is 70) and figured some one here could give me a beer, shot or other drink as needed.

My back tire had 3 holes too close together for a patch. For the past 2 months I have aired it every 10 days or so. I also drive 27 miles on the freeway to work daily.:rolleyes:
do I really need to ask WHAT'S NEXT? and yes I have some resumes out and really want a new job. I also have on in the Harris COunty Sheriff's to work in the jail. I think I'm the only one here that wants to go to jail (to work of course)

Damn, girl. That IS a week from hell! :eek:

It has to get better from here, though.

Mom has upgraded to soup, which is a good thing.

You have 3 new tires!

They will get the AC up and running.

AND Miss Hose Beast will likely get an official b-slap in the (hopefully) near future! :D

If you can wait her out, would the job be a cool place?

[texaschickeee]

no waiting her out. She is banging the CEO (well it is heavily in-plied and she calls his cell for IMMEDIATE action)

I want new job as this is lower on the pay scale. Its great because I'm not micro managed, and have a lot of freedoms. But I will do more and get more from another job. The only nice thing that has not happen is they have done everything not to lay off people. They cut health insurance, retirement and bonus/ raises. Sooooooooooooooooooooooo

I get cash every two weeks now. I NEED the other stuff.

[ducatimom]

Well, damn.

Hopefully one of your apps will get you into a good place with good pay, benes and be interesting to boot! :D
