half the systems are the university ones I know pretty well, and half are completely unique to the hospital, and there's no way other than experience to know what's what--no classes on understanding the budget reports, nothing about administrative systems and where to go to ask for what for new employees, etc.
I did this too a couple of years ago-- I made some pretty big errors, actually, but I learned it eventually. Is there some sort of "Administrator's Group" that you could join that you may not know about. We have one here, and even though it is lame, you tend to be able to make connections so that you can call other hospital department administrators and ask for help.
Also, the idea Beth had for marking is a really good one!
Good idea, beth--now, to see if I can remember where I packed the tape and the color-coded sticky flags...
Argh.
They're not finishing till Monday, because 3:00 is quitting time for Facilities staff. So this whole damn place looks like a construction site.
I'm SO afraid this is going to make New Boss think I'm stupid and incompetent...
I wonder if I'll ever hear "Bad Girls" without thinking another Bayliss got his wings.
But even that is better than being glad grandma got cremated so you don't think of Emma Zoole.
Ha! You want work related insanity? Client just called to get directions for tomorrows class out in A-town. Coworker told her directions from a major highway. "Those directions don't work for me, can I have your number in case I get lost." Coworker explains that she can't give out the number for the cell phone the company doesn't pay for. So the client asks where coworker lives. "Uhm, [unspecified town about an hour away from class site]" "Oh well I live in [other unspecified town almost as far out], could you just pick me up on your way?" Coworker explains she can't do that. "Why won't you help me!?!?"
W to the T to the F, Dude.
Happy Anniversary, Nora & Tom!
Susan - get everything labeled (to the "right side of susan w's desk) To do list for monday including things like calling facilities manager on monday to re-request table. If your desk isn't moved - put tape on the floor where it is supposed to be. How you handle a screw up ( that is not your fault) makes your place in the team . This is the opportunity . Put yourself in the new bosses shoes. - what would rather- explanations or actions?
Guh I'm getting nowhere with the Amazon marketplace seller. I keep asking for the shipping information and all she tells me is, "As I said, I mailed to the address given to me by Amazon. I’m not sure why you haven’t received it yet." I'm not sure what my next step should be. Any suggestions?
edit: nebbermind. I finally found the claim form on Amazon.com
sooo... how 'bout them Packers?
ND, if you want to be really evil, have the speakers in the trees play the Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas song. (me, I want a huuuuulaaaa hoooop).
earworm, anyone?
