thank god that’s over

but, who knows… it may be just the start. i’m totally pissed that i may not be able to go visit mom this weekend in order to stay here and re-do all that bloody work. it’s not fair. i was thinking that maybe i’d sacrifice and come on monday (victoria day holiday) to do it. that way i can still go to the island for at least a couple of days. i was already considering coming home sunday regardless. and, the one upside of working on the stat is i get double time and another day off in lieu of the holiday. we’ll see. because i’m planning that, of course they’ll get all the data back and rob me of some extras.
found out that one of my favourite managers got fired today. totally out of the blue, too. i had been talking to him in the morning and he was upbeat even with all the computer problems. poor guy. i know that they’ve probably been trying to get rid of him for a while, but it still seems sudden. i was speculating with another manager about the timing and i wondered if maybe it was because they wanted to get him out before he unpacked his stuff into his new office.
