Invasion of the E-mail Predators

It has been quite a while since I felt like I loved my job. You may have noticed that I only have negative things to say about my job and the company I work for but that's not necessarily true. I do have a lot of fun in the plant often but those moments just seem to be outweighed by the bad times. And hey, I just remembered that it's payday. There must be some connection.

Speaking of payday, I'm just happy that my I could perform a withdrawal transaction on my ATM again. For the past few days, I've been bankrupt. Partly, it's because I was quite on a spending spree lately, going places, applying for jobs, and a host of other stuff which slowly drained my bank account. More than that, though, it's because a lot of people in and out of the plant owes me some bucks that I even lost track of the who and the how much already.

With that, I ended up owing money from Val and Aireene. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to indulge in that Quarter Pounder last Sunday and two consecutive heavy meals for my lunch. Yep, I'm trying to eat a lot lately. There are times, though, that I feel dizzy after eating, just because I'm bordering on gluttony.

Back to my job. I've finally officially finished the darn TQFP O/S test program which I've been ranting about for weeks. Now, I'm actually selecting which project I'll be focusing on next. Along the way, I'm having the time of my life replying to e-mails of the bigshots in the office. If anybody asks me when the commit date for this or how this crap is doing so far, I'd immediately reply and tell them to stop bothering me.

That's the thing with some managers in this plant sometimes. Many of them act so much like politicians. All day, they prey upon our activities and wait for some e-mail they could reply to then call everyone's attention to something they think needs to call attention to. But, like I've previously said, I love my job at this moment in time again. Their politics wouldn't have to ruin my zeal.
