Well day one down after the long weekend and it was pretty uneventful. I really didn’t get a lot done other than my expenses and a few phone calls on my cell phone since I still don’t have a phone at my desk. This is, in my opinion, one of the most poorly run projects I have ever been associated with and the frustration level is pretty high with most of the staff on the project. I think in the next couple months we will see several people leaving the project and company for better and greener pastures.
I myself have not stopped looking for any opportunities that may arise as although I DO NOT like the company I am working for and the people I work with, I do like the Project, client or Toronto office that I am attached to. In typical Marty fashion I will stick it out for a while and get things set up and running, and going in the right direction. My task this week is to find a place where I can rent some indoor space to put materials until I have a warehouse built which won’t be until at least January if I am lucky.
Anyways, enough venting about work today. I do not want to get my BP up so early. Speaking of which, it seems to have been on the rise the last couple weeks. I need to relax and get that back in check. I was doing so well the longest time, and for some reason I have let things get to me the past while. The small stuff that should not matter piss me off lately, to the point where i work myself up into a bad mood.
I think it has to do with the shitty work environment, and the fact that I don’t feel like I am in the right place yet, that I am still circling looking for a place to land and relax and work. I suppose once this week goes by, and I don’t hear from the two jobs that I just interviewed form, then it will be a done deal and I can concentrate a little bit more on this place. I am also signing up to the gym this Saturday and going to try and get out golfing for the day Sunday. That will give me a sense of belonging here I guess.
I am already looking forward to my next trip home on 19 August for the Logistic Golf Tournament. It should be fun to see some of the old guys again. Also it will be 5 days home for a rest. The next trip is the September long weekend, where I am heading to Ottawa to hang with some old friends of mine I haven’t seen in 14 years(until the reunion) This way we have the weekend to catch up on a lot of things from the past decade. We were such great friends back then, and it was a shame that we parted for so long. This should be good to reunite and get together a couple times a year to hang out.
Work time, catch y’all later!
