enjoy work

i just gave my 2 weeks notice at my landscaping job. i have some new slivers in my finger and thumb and i am feeling humbled by them. once i stopped stressing about work i started to kinda enjoy it. or not hate it anyways. i just dont like it cuz i dont think that i “should” like it. like i need permission. le sigh. i have a smile (small) on my face. its all pretty absurd.

I work in the national statistics department, and we run lots of surveys each year. I have to call up the respondents and remind them to complete the surveys. But the return rates are getting slower and slower. These people are fed up about completing questionnaires. I am fed up for reminding the same people who promise that they will return a questionnaire but never do.

DOWNSIDE: It might not be such a bad job but it sure as hell is effecting my performance if i cant collect a certain amount within a specific time frame.

UPSIDE: The money is good tho. And this is just one phase of the survey process. So I can’ wait for it to be over.

wtf? ya. im back washing dishes. its not all bad though. i get a free gormet pizza every night that i work… and the poeple are starting to warm up to me. and my boss is nice and flexable. and the pay is good… so… maybe enjoy isnt the right word.. but i enjoy some aspects of it.

I work at a rose sales place on the phones… and its not all bad. the time passes quickly and it sbetter than dishwashing. more rewarding and less physically demanding. i just sit there on the phones.
