Nearing Production :)

Friday, May 4th, 2007

Well, my two huge projects are close to production deployment. WooHoo! I am going to take leave leading up to the final week of the deployments. i have done all that I can at this point. Now it is up to the others to make it happen.

I am now going through all of the checks and working the final issues. I will make my deployment date whether we are at 90% or 100%. It has to be done.

Cheers!

Another Week

Friday, April 20th, 2007

Well, another week gone. We are still waiting for the other shoe to drop at work. it is amazing how people will use the bosses name in order to get something done, right or wrong. I keep trying to decipher this madness that we have going on. I just have to keep praying, and God will protect me.

Cannot believe this!

I am currently sitting on the phone on a conference call working. This because we were told on Thursday about a budgeting drill. We were already working on shortfalls for ‘07. Now they want the numbers for ‘08. On top of that, we are doing budgeting for areas we will probably no longer be in.

One of our managers is being a real dirtbag. He was going to hold the organization chart until we had completed all of the budgeting for all of the projects including those we will probably no longer do. However, he was unable to proceed that way because a higher manager said we should be doing the budgets to the new org structures. That is the kind of stuff we are having to deal with.

Why me?

Well, today turned out to be yet another one of those days. I cannot figure out what it is I need to do at work. I thought I was on the verge of making a major impact on my organization. I cannot tell now. There are getting much harder at this point. I inherited a lot of things that were already poop. Now I may pay for the sins of those prior. *Sigh* Oh well…more prayer is good.

Why does work seem like H*ll?

I really wonder why everyday for me at work has to be pure heck. Perhaps, I need to pray harder. Lord, give me strength…Amen.

Work Again

Sunday, March 18th, 2007

I know I have not posted in a while. There has been a reason. The projects I have been working on for the past year or so are finally close to being ready for production. However, it seems each time I get close something happens. I cannot believe how much more complex these projects can be. It has become so serious that I call upon divine intervention every day. It is really weighing heavily on my health. This is how the entity that I work for treats people. Under pays the workers, and works you into the ground.

When I was in college and thinking about the next phase, I had no idea the workplace would be like this. This is really flawed. We are suppose to be working to enjoy life, but while working like this you cannot enjoy life. My job literally…makes me not well daily.

We seem to also keep getting new people who believe they know what they are doing. Well, I can tell you by what they are doing they do not. In addition, “they listen to the wrong people!” They are still listening to people who helped put us in the state that we are in. This stuff literally has the makings of a great tell all novel.

Have any of you been in a situation like this before? If you have, then let me know and how you dealt with it.

Cheers…not this time…

Long Days

I am getting really worn down again.  However, we are making progress.  I will have two big projects delivered at the same time.
