I botched my dye job. I hate my hair. I am ready to shave it off. I have to call my salon soon . Hopefully they'll have time to fix it, or do something with it to make it look better. I decided not to go to work today because of my hair. Luckily I can do that.

Never again will I dye my own hair.

I just spent all morning walking all over Chicago O'Hare airport. 4, count 'em, FOUR gate changes. And not nice little "go down to the next gate" changes - I'm talking "walk the whole length of the terminal" gate changes.

At one of these gates, there were three flights scheduled to depart within half an hour of each other from the same gate.

Apparently the laws of space-time do not apply in Chicago...

orange barrels....
there is perpetual road construction here. and the kick is you never totally know where it is until you are upon it. there are supposed signs -- but they never kick in.
just a pain in the butt.

I hate my job right now!

I have been with the company over 8 years. I was just informed I wasn't getting a raise. My former boss gave me a nasty annual review before she quit. So the VP had to come down and inform me I was getting squat this year.

So unfair. When I came on board in this department it was after a 4 month lay off. They told me after I started that I was not getting my seniority back! I used to love this company.

On the upside, I have decided that I hate the corporate environment, so I am applying to a teacher training program for college grads. I can hopefully student teach & get paid next year at the same time! I love business, technology and the theories behind them. I just can't stand being treated as a number or a robot, I am not interested in playing the game.

I did a good job, I have lost benefits, and I am a single mom these things really hurt. And now I don't get an increase? I am done!

I got NO sleep last night because my husband decided to snore at a volume that would put the Concorde to shame...

and I came in to work to find someone had hacked the production database server and we will probably have to do a complete restore from backups, and by the way, while we're at it, let's upgrade our database server! But will the cheap SOB give me any additional hours to get all this accomplished? NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Oh yeah, and don't let your other work fall behind schedule.

Kristin, sorry your job sucks. Can you ask for a more fair annual review from your new boss?

Thanks for the props everyone. My VP said I should have a new boss in 3-6 months and I will be able to start over. And I told him what happened with my review, including that it is the worst I have received in eight years. But I was given no comfort. I have just given up putting my heart into the job. As far as I am concerned I am there to answer the phones. Lots of hanging out on GC during work hours nowadays .
