A Day in the Life

Quit calling me "Belly Buster"

I'm going in for my hernia operation tomorrow morning. Woohoo! Anyone had one before that can tell me how soon I'll be back on my feet? Basically, I'm wondering if I can go out in service on Saturday afternoon. I suppose I'll just have to wait and see how I feel.

After my cheerful trainee made serious improvements on Wed, my management decided to give her a second chance. Although she's not as absorbant as we'd like, it may still be more practical to keep her rather than repeating the whole training process. She's trying hard, but it's gonna be a struggle. They sent my manager out with me for an hour today to observe the training process and basically audit what's happening. I was glad they did, because the boss seemed to think that my concerns were the result of my poor training or overly perfectionist standards, and now I have a second opinion to validate what I was saying.

Listening to old Blondie and REM stuff tonight. How is it I don't recognize some of these songs? Sometimes I get too stuck on my favorites and bypass the more obscure gems.

Still need to fix the comments. Just scroll down and then back up again if the comments aren't visible.
