Work Venting

Okay - it's only 9:45am this morning and I am already mad. I am up to my eyeballs in projects and I have just recently taken over half of the job duties of someone else (which for the record they are very pissed about) so I get 5 minutes of training from her from each thing that I am supposed to do, obviously you can't cover much in 5 min. So this morning I am calling the state helpdesk and they are rude as hell to me because I don't have all the information and haven't completed a form that I need for them to fix our problem - didn't know there was a form, didn't know there was a website to find these forms - nice huh ! This has been an ongoing problem since I took over these duties - either she didn't train me at all or left out a big chunck of information -sorry, but what a bitch! So now that I've bitched and moaned - it's off to make my popcorn for a morning snack and keep plugging away at the Excel Spreadsheet and the new database that I learned this morning - who invented Excel - love em and hate em - my eyes burn after looking at little numbers and letters all day on the screen, but oh well it keeps the paychecks rolling in - back to the grindstone.
