Conference rooms are the new offices
I had orientation today, 3 weeks after I started and learned nothing except the medical insurance choices suck and I don’t get to take my birthday off as a paid holiday because I haven’t been there for 90 days. Not that I was planning on it until I saw that birthdays are included in the paid holidays list. The medical insurance thing bothers me, they only have HMOs and neither of them include the hospital I go to.
The excessively long meetings are making me more tolerant of things like a detailed explanation of how to fill out insurance forms. Maybe it’s because I’m new but I still like listening to the big bosses talk. When the CEO came in and started talking evidence based practices, I was all about it.
When I got back to my office, I saw an invoice for SPSS, statistical software that I really don’t know how to use but said I did in my interview. Looks like I better start whoring myself to math geeks on Craigslist.
I’ve been trying to make the internet find me dates, it’s doing an OK job so far. I keep making up all these rules for the dates/potential dates to follow, some I’m not sure I can follow myself. Maybe most people think “Oh I barely know this person, I can just disappear and it’s cool.” Most likely due to my history with disappearing boy, that’s Not Acceptable. The way I see it is: “I barely know this person, I can say whatever I want with no repercussions! I’m going to tell them I hate them right now!”
I’m so going to write my own dating rules book. And Mystery will not be in it. Know why? Because he’s fucking Canadian.
