I love the office. Love it!! I was watching it last night and it just makes me feel so, so good, because I don't feel so alone. There are incompetent companies out there, other than the ones I have worked for. Sometimes I have to ask myself, "Is it really that hard, or am I really just that good?" I don't think it's that hard. I've never been a brain surgeon, nor a rocket scientist...so no one's life has ever depended on me...entirely. I mean I did load aircraft's for a living, not literally...but on paper, like the weight and balance of the aircraft's...which is pretty important...but there was always a pilot double checking my work. All I can say 'bout that is, *Phew* because holy moly math was not my strong suit. Secret - I still count with my fingers, like 8 + 5 = 9, 10, 11, 12, 13...13!!!
Last night's *rerun* episode was all worrisome because the company was on the brink of bankruptcy, and they were all waiting by the phone, literally, to see if they're out of a job (uh....I've been there a time or two...two...I've been there twice...and both times, it was bad news, bear) and so to get their minds off the stress, Michael forces them all to play a murder mystery game. I love it. The ship is sinking, lets throw a party. Recently, I found out that a boss I once had - who told me I should always carry a clipboard because it makes me look more *professional* has been further promoted. Geez...sometimes I think just even showing up at work and breathing puts me ahead of the game. I guess I'm still just a supervisor - I do not carry a clipboard around with me everywhere I go. It gets in the way, I put it down, I lose it. I'm more of a *hands on* supervisor...
Sometimes I have to just turn it off because it's so incredibly near to my reality...
