I stop blogging for a while and people are *still* checking in? That's crazy.
It's been a tiring, numb week.... work's been absolutely crap. People have been taking medical leave, urgent leave, or just plain not showing up. And they've not been penalised. We're not supposed to be late but I saw one staff who was late 7 times already. And it's only the 14th. :o
So who takes the slack? Yeah, uh huh, us who remain. The faithful who show up. I was so short on sleep that last Monday I took medical leave myself. Just to rest. And to prevent my headache from exploding into a full fledged migraine. Screw'em all. I am not going to suffer a migraine for other people's irresponsibility.
And for some reason, our work volume has been bad crazy. On the current manpower, including those who don't turn up, we're supposed to work on a department averange of about 2800 - 3200 calls per day. But we've been averaging 4000 - 4500. WITH the loss in manpower. We're seriously overstretched. *shakes head*
Perhaps it is a good thing I come home exhausted every day..... I don't know if it's a delayed reaction or what, but I am strangely numb. Floating. Mindless. Scattered. Incredibly apathetic. For the last 3 years I have been working with a particular goal in mind. Now that I am not going to the US, now that I am single, I find it strange to pick up the pieces.
Do I date again? Am I ready to date again in the first place? SHOULD I date? If I date, will it be unfair to the next person? And how about work? Should I stay on with this company, convert to perm staff? Should I try and recoup my corporate career? If I am going to remain single, I can throw myself full-force into a career again?
Only I know that will make me miserable once more.
*wry grin*
Work is a very poor substitution for loneliness. I had burnt out once and I don't want to burn out again. Too much trouble to recover! So back to square 1. Work a simple job and have loads of time to mope! haha!
So blogging has been light. I have been mindlessly earning L$ in SecondLife by "dancing". No, not stripping, as someone commented (You know who you are. lol). And playing Insaniquarium on Yahoo! at the same time. The mindlessness of the entire situation seems to suit me imminently.
Upside? I logged on to Statcounter after not caring for the longest time. And I find... people are still visiting? What are you guys looking for? lol. My posts have been woefully tedious and boring for the last 6 weeks or so! I would recommend you check out Bernie's blog for more uplifting material!
Go on, I'm not suitable public company right now. :o

Hey Fi, am real glad to see a posting! :)
Blogging has become a gauge of our state. LOL. Since we do not generally use our blog as a whine or grumble (rants do not count)outlet, it not surprising that people are concerned when posts lagged. *grin*
I remembered smses and emails sent by friends the last time I had a lapse in blogging cos' I was feeling down.
I keep coming ack hoping you'll post more pictures I can hold up with one hand.
Was that out loud?
