Guess who's on a 30 day performance improvement management plan? Guess who doesn't trust her manager AT ALL? Guess who's going to be updating her resume tonight, because better safe than sorry?
Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck. At least the manager gave me the rest of the day off "to process and review the plan".
What. The. HELL, Jilli???? That's crazy!
My technical writing isn't at the level my boss wants. I'm not doing enough work, and the team is carrying me, even tho' in June the plan was to load-balance my work better because it was determined that having me juggle SIX projects was maybe a bad call. But there's also not enough UX writing work to justify me spending more time with that team.
Like I said, I don't trust my manager. For a lot of reasons, which I'm not going to elaborate on in a semi-public space.
However, I will say that I have now learned for sure that I would rather be an editor than a technical/programmer writer.
Still waiting on the CU. It's going up the chain and so far it looks hopeful.
Jilli, I am sorry that you have a manager you do not trust. That just makes every bad thing even worse.
Lots of ~ma, Steph!!
Jilli, WTF. Updating the resume sounds prudent.
Reviewing health insurance. Kill me now.
Reviewing health insurance. Kill me now.
Ugh. That reminds me, I still need to go over the new health insurance requirements here.
Oh, this GISHWHES thing sounded like something that Buffistas might have fun with: One of the items is to create the cover of a romance novel, showing Misha Collins and the Queen of England in a torrid embrace. We've got the graphic, and it's beautifully disturbing, but we need a title. Any suggestions? I suppose it needs an author name as well, and whatever other text might be on a book cover.
