Bored, bored, bored, bored, BORING!!

WRRAAGRRH!!!

*hits head against table*

No, I didn't realize I didn't count enough photocopies. Yes, I went by the numbers listed on the copy page. No, I did not have time to count every single page of the HUNDREDS you gave me, considering that you know I'm learning disabled in Math, *slow* with the photocopier, AND I had to answer your damned phones at the same time.

And no, I did not appreciate that sarcastic, superior tone of yours does not help matters. And yes, I have other to do as well.

Just FUCK OFF!

I really didn't think I could reach a lower level of indifference.

I was wrong.

I don't care anymore.

if you people would take two seconds and realize that when i am asking you

"is the *insert language here* speaker with you" i am not askign you whether the interpreter is there, since you are FUCKING CALLING FOR ONE YOU TWATS!

Gr. Hate it when music teachers are late (without calling) and then parents get pissed off at me.
You do realize I have no control over the teachers, right?

Well I guess they don't.

My stupid company's going under. Maybe this week. I doubt I will ever be paid by them again.

*hugs*
Is there some kind of compensation scheme?
The company I worked for went under this summer, but in the UK the government pays the wages for insolvency, eventually.

*hugs Phoenix* That sucks!

Argh!!! *hugs the Ramblin' One*

You're due to come home soon, though, right?

Oh no!
Damn. I'm sorry to hear that. Hope you get your money?
*hugs*

Phoenix, that sucks. I shall keep my fingers crossed in the small hope that you do get paid, and in the much bigger hope that you get a nicer and better job with a company not planning to go under.

*more hugs for Phoenix*

I also hope you'll get your money, or at least some of it, & that you'll soon find a new & even better job.

About half the building has just been made redundant. Zoom. Just like that. No warning. A whole production team and the localisation team -but I'm on a temporary contract, so it seems they might keep me until it runs out. Of course, there's no team and the localsaiton is going to be carried out elsewhere, so what the hell am I supposed to do? No-one's talked to me yet.

The whole place is empty. It's surreal.

oh my!

*hugs to pheonix and clover*

Oh dear.
*hugs clover*

Are you ok? found anything out?

Well I'm pissed off, that's what I am.

*hugs back*

Ok, situation is, the localization team is being moves elsewhere, but because my contract ends on December they're keeping me until then and just not renewing. Which is sort of ok coz I didn't want to stay anyway. But the rest of my team is gone, some other people will be working at the other office. The team lead stays, so it'll just be both of us here in a semi-deserted place.

And I feel so very sorry for the guys that got sacked, they were working hard and liked the job. And there's not that many local opportunities for videogame designers here, so it sucks big time for them.

ETA: We got this pre-recorded phone conference with the Boss Telephone Voice, in short: "We're sorry, guys, but we're a business and we need to make money. Thanks for your support thoguh, our company will make loads of money as a result of this move." They're relocating most of the departments to Romania. Bwlaurgh.

*hugs Clover*
RAAAAARRGH to the company though. British Gas used to pull stunts like that too. Probably still do...

*hugs Clover*

Well, the last of my old colleagues is going to quit her job. This means that from February on, it will be me & six newbies. At least one of them is already pulling her weight, so she should be okay, but at least one of the others leaves me speechless at times because she can be so slow & complicated... And I don't want to be mean but even the nicest, calmest people are beginning to lose patience with her, & I - alas! - have never been blessed with the patience of an angel. But quite apart from her, this means I should not only do without the help of one of my older colleagues & introduce the newbies, I should also take over some stuff of the other of my older colleagues because they don't want to give it to any of the newbies.

Obviously, the minute I start working my butt off to get everything done, they will come & complain about my overtime. They've pestered me about it so much I've decided to meet all my deadlines at the end of November & then take 2 weeks off in December, & now everyone's peeing themselves because I cannot possibly not be around for 2 weeks then. I don't know why I still even try to win this game.

And I would really think that if all the more experienced people leave, some of our bosses would have a think. But no. This obviously has nothing at all to do with the fact that they are creating a truly poisonous climate.

I SO wish I could just leave as well.

Please please I need another job
