Fried

So apparently a while back I came a little closer to being fired than I would like to have been. Unbeknownst to me, I had a review at the end of my 3 month contract. Emails went around to the appropriate people, seeking reviews. Between what essentially boils down to clerical errors and some miscommunication, I was almost let go. But it was pretty quickly found out, and settled, all without my knowning. Good to know that they do in fact like me and want to keep me around a little while longer. :)

Watched “Cast Away” last night and the commentary tonight. I really liked it, but I bet there will be an ensuing flame war about how people didn’t like it.

Essentially impulse bought a book this morning from Amazon, Measuring and Managing Performance in Organizations. It would be nice if I could plow through it this weekend. We’ll see.

    Glad to hear you still have a job:) do you have another contract now? or is it just periodic reviews andyou are not a regular full time employee?

    Honestly, I have no idea. I guess that it really shouldn’t come as a surprise to most of you, as I tend to fly by the seat of my pants more than I probably should. I’ll go full-time eventually.

    yea, i remember you talking about the fact that nobody had said anything to you about your contract. that’s pretty funny then.

    just make sure they still pay you, if ive elarned anything from judge mathis its get everything in writing and as long as that check is in writing at the end of the week you will always be able to tithe 50% to the rip callum ross fund, 2208 franklin, bryan, tx 77801
