Oof, Hil, that sounds awful.

e had an all staff meeting today where they played a Trivial Pursuit game - not only did she refuse to participate, but she sat behind me (her BOSS) bitching the whole time. Oh lawd, here we go.

...OK, one thing to bitch when the work is dirty and dangerous, but when you're playing Trivial Pursuit? REALLY?

Of course, I did send kind of a bitchy email to my boss earlier today. Just because she wanted me to do my job on the required timeline. Sigh.

{{{Hil}}} Feel better!

I highly approve of birthday weeks for smonster and Nora.

It was Trivial Pursuit-style with questions about the organization, based on our publication. She hadn't read them, but neither had many of the others, and then she was complaining about answering "stupid questions she didn't know the answer to" or something. Did you miss how many staff raised their hands to show that they're former Americorps? Say it with me now... net, working. Networking. She also refused to go up a metal ladder yesterday during tool training saying it was too wobbly and she was used to fiberglass. Great, because I needed a crew member afraid of heights. And she (and two others) were a 1/2 hr late this morning. I really hope she's just having a bad week, because she is not impressing me one bit right now.

Can you fire her?

First come Stern Talkings To, the first of which will be tomorrow to the three who were late. It has to be a Big Freaking Problem to fire one of them. Right now I'm just watching and listening, tomorrow is the first day where they will really be doing anything so we'll see how she does.

Thrilling update... nothing from roommie. SRSLY? She has to have read it by now, she's on her computer all the time.

Pics of my nails are up on FB, in case you were curious.

This does not surprise me. I don't think you'll get any response unless you talk to her directly. Not to say you have to, but if you want a response or dialogue, then...

smonster.

STAND IN THE KITCHEN!

This sounds like what someone says when they don't like ladders at all. If it had been fiberglass, she probably would have said she was used to metal.

loiter in the kitchen!
