Do this, No Not That!
Pretty lame post for a Friday morning...but...
I know better than to check my work email from home. However, fate tempts me and I fall every time. I'm curious to see if I'm missing out on anything and just 'can't wait' until I get to the office.
This morning, after a wonderful cycling class and making lunch plans with the Gal Pal, and a trip to the tanning bed (I know I know, bad "W", bad bad "W")...
I get home, check my other email, and then open my work account. It's never a good thing when your boss send you something with the title in caps...QUESTION???
The question was in reference to my main work assignment last night. I had nothing to do with the content...I just do it (if you can read between the lines there). The boss man wasn't happy with the order of the content and said it just didn't make sense.
Rewind about 20 months...to when the producer (in charge of content) was pretty new to our office...but has about 15 years 'experience'...was really annoying with his manner of stacking the content..so much so we had a knockout drag down fight night after night, till finally he included some random story about a fireworks stand explosion in mexico amidst a bunch of local items of interest. I told him, "NO. Absolutely not. This makes no sense, put it down with the national, international stuff. I'm NOT going to read that story."
I didn't.
The next day I got the "You were right, it didn't make sense, but it's the producer's job to stack the show, and you can't change their decision."
So I've learned to grin and bear it...and just do whatever.
Then I get this email...like it's my fault. Sure....riiight.
Anyhoo...it's Friday...I'm not gonna let it get me down...cause I have an uber fab weekend in store!
Hope your St. Patrick's Day weekend is great too!
