"That's your uncle talking."
Oct. 26th, 2006 07:45 amWork has been interesting lately. So many changes happening at once.
I'm debating whether I should express interest in one of the positions that's opened up in HR due to someone being promoted. I didn't give it a second thought until J came and planted the bug in my ear (he's the one supervising that position, so if he wants me to apply... that's good). I really don't know if I'd like it more than my current job, though.
On the plus side, I wouldn't have to get up at 4:00am twice a month to finish payroll. But YAY daylight savings time is going to give me an extra hour cuz everyone else will be changing their clocks soon.
I don't know. I have a few days to debate it still. Maybe no one else will apply for it and they'll extend the deadline.
I'm starting to wonder if I spend too much time RPing. Note to self: It's only a game. It's only a game. It's only a game. Repeat as necessary.
Maybe I should follow in Becca's footsteps and *gasp!* give up a character. But who?

Date: 2006-10-26 03:47 pm (UTC)I have a total of 6 characters in 3 games. One game hasn't really gotten off the ground yet (1 character), one I fail at posting much at (1 character), and the other one I have 4 characters at... but really didn't want to have more than 3.
Off with all their heads? You're mean!

Date: 2006-10-26 03:59 pm (UTC)I kinda do, too. I decided the other day that T'ra is protesting the war by chilling out in the Temple gardens in tree form...just so I don't have to play her. And I still feel guilty about neglecting Quin and Xan...I have long-term plot ideas for both of them, but we're kind of lacking in characters.
And I still want to play Bail. >.> Tell me I don't need to play Bail!
Bail: *would probably do D! in a sneaky manipulative politician way*

Date: 2006-10-27 02:43 pm (UTC)Aw man, I wish I could get into my home email here at work. It's dumb - I'm supposed to have access through webmail which works just fine on my laptop, but not here at work, who knows why.
Sometimes I get so sucked into what I'm doing I have to remind myself that real life is more important. It doesn't feel like it is sometimes :) This week was better for me with more alone time because I only had "the kid" 2 days instead of 4. Wooo! Nothing against him but I like my space.
No internet! I know, like back in school! We had to go to the library to look things up in encyclopedias! And trudge 10 miles uphill through the snow!
