The Difference a Week Makes
The first week of June was great. I finally got approval to attend some much needed training. Though the classes were intensive, it was one wonderful week away from chaos of the plant. When I returned on Monday of the second week, what had I missed? The plant facility manager and one of the purchasing agents had been fired. And my boss had turned in his notice.
I can say that I was there on Tuesday, when one of my friends on the assembly line waited until quitting time to tell her boss that she would not be returning the next day. It didn’t matter that she was within a few months of retiring. She had had enough.
So these past couple of weeks have been interesting. My boss spent much of this past week going over all of his work with me. Lucky me. Since these new owners have taken over, my work load has already increased. Now with the addition of my boss’ responsibilities, my cup runneth over …. but not my wallet.
I too have been looking for work with that ideal company. One where I can enjoy a share of the profitability that I bring to them. One where “plan” is not a four letter word. One where management-by-crisis is a forbidden practice. If you’re looking for a competent, fun loving, hard working, creative, programmer/test development engineer, call me. Please! And Soon!!!
