Is it coincidence that boss rhymes with loss? I think not.

LOL at Lumberjack!
Yeah, my boss is so bad, that dicentra lent me The Devil Wears Prada, which is supposed to be a fun/funny entertaining book and it only depressed me. My boss is pretty much that bad, cept I don't get free Jimmy Choos and Manolo Blahnicks at my job.
Yeah, let's just say that my boss is getting nothing from me on the 16th.

By the way she is currently gracing Atlanta with her presence. Those of you who live in the Atlanta area, avoid small, angry Asian women at all costs. It could be her.

You could always send her one of those anonymous boxes of poop. That'd work.

I never give my boss gifts. Their reward is that bigass paycheck.

well, today has been an interesting one.

For some reason, I woke up today thinking it was Friday and wore jeans to work. Got into work and one of my co-workers informed me it wasn't Friday and not casual day, so I had to run home and change and come back into work. Luckily I live 5 minutes from work. Before I left to go home and change, I also found out two workers got fired and that a member of the human resources department from corporate was in to fire them.

So I got back in and I was supposed to have a meeting with the office manager at 9am with some other workers to discuss the office issues, called advisory board.

I go to the office manager's office and wait outside, while some of the other members of the board show up and wait. The office manager was in his office and was on the phone and his door was shut. So we waited a few minutes and then he got off the phone and his admin assistant informed us that we can go in and we proceeded into his office.

He was visibly upset, very red in the face and he told his abruptly that the meeting will have to be postponed and he walked us out of his office and we returned to our cubes.

So back at my desk, everyone was buzzing around wondering what was going to happen since two people were fired. Would the access codes be changed, doors and locks be changed, etc etc ???

We then found out that our VP was in from corporate and that there was going to be a meeting at 10am in the conference room.

The night before, a spam email went around saying our staff would be reduced by 50%, followed by an email from the CEO saying that is no plan to reduce the staff.

So everyone walked into the conference room wondering what was about to go down.

We were sitting there and the VP was talking about college football and then said, alright, we'll get this started and announced our office manager was no longer working for our company.

ugggggh I liked our office manager a lot.

total bummer of a morning.

I'm glad I work in a small office (4 people including myself). Office drama is to a minimum.
