It almost sounds like they want to keep your self-esteem down so you won't get the idea to leave....

Well, if they want my self-esteem down, they've succeeded in this move to help desk with the re-org. Though it's making me consider doing the latter for the first time in the nearly 9 years I've been here, so I doubt that was their intention.

earwormed with Oh Canada. WTF?!?!?

Also? forgot to send in mortgage and maintenance. oops. doing now.

If where I worked had any real interest in advanceing me - or anyone else in my position- that would be cool. But they don't. they made a new position- library assistant - so we could be on the public floor. There are a whole bunch of things that we could do to ease the burdens of the librarians, but we can't do any of it- except on the sly. So when it is quiet, we fold things to be mailed. or count things. Pages and volunteers do those sort of things. for a lot less money. I am somewhat bitter, because I was promised more. however, I never take my job home wioth me, I like the work( when I am not bored) , and the money is very good comparred to the stress level.

ps no library fines

You miss me. Admit it.

Whenever anybody asks me about my five year plan, I start giving grandiose speeches about how collectivisation will boost steel and grain production 11% year on year. If I'm really into it, I take off my shoe and start hammering on the desk.

Seems to do the trick.

Hah! Your counter-revolutionary obscurantism will not be allowed to undermine my production quotas, of which I have many.

She's standing on guard for you, Sue.
