Demotion!
02.28.06 (1:05 pm)   [edit]

I can say I've been a manager for 3 business days.

My boss informed me that HR thought it would be better if he had my report. That's fine, I guess :) I have no management duties now. It was exciting while it lasted, but I really had no clue what I had to do. It's clear I need to mentor but nobody told me anything about regular HR-type stuff.

I had these great grey DKNY slacks. First, I got butter on them, and I ended up with an even worse stain when I tried to remove it! I always did try to avoid rayon blends whenever possible. I took these pants to the dry cleaner, and they couldn't get the stain out completely, but it faded a lot.  HOWEVER, I can no longer wear these pants to work! They've shrunken just a little, and they are waaay too tight to wear in the office.

Nobody needs to see my rippling butt muscles.

Tonight, I'm going to make some pasta for me and some friends. I have this jar of tomato and basil sauce that was previously opened, but I've kept it in the fridge. The thing is...it's been there for months. I didn't see any mould and it looked okay...so is it still edible??

How long do these things last?!?!

I am going to make my sauce from scratch tonight anyway.

You don't want to be part of "management" anyway. Sucks the life out of you and you become one of 'them'. LOL

Toss the sauce. You can eat pasta and still have ripping butt muscles? I hate you. LOL

Yeah. Being management sucks. You end up being responsible for everyone else's work. *your* work becomes "managing" and is not usually something productive. The worst is being the lowest tier of manager because then upper management will always be telling you what to do

I don't eat pasta that much :D And now that I'm not managing, I can avoid putting up that manager-employee wall, too!! Woo!

With my 3 days of management, I was already feeling lost! All I knew was that I was responsibile for her work, but I didn't get to call all the shots.

When I make pasta at home, I stick with the whole wheat stuff, but everything in moderation is okay :) I just threw out the sauce last night. Next up is the salsa!

Alicia, I need more clothes!! I don't even have any long sweaters :( I ended up making my sauce from scratch, and it was so easy!! Thank goodness since I'm definitely no cook.

At first I thought the sauce was okay, but then when I went to dump it out last night, there was mould on the lid!!! Ugh!! Gross!!
