Bored at lunch
24 March 2015 12:56I should go take a walk or something but bleh...can't be bothered. I should've gone home and gotten some kitty snuggles at lunch but it's too late to head off now. Ah well.
I emailed that apartment complex to ask about a few things. It was a little disconcerting that it took hunting down three emails before I got one that didn't bounce back but I did get an answer quickly once I finally got one that worked so eh. Since it didn't note on the site what's included with the rent, I asked and sewer/trash, water AND heat are included as well as one parking space is included which is nice. I did also clarify that I'd be ok to have two kitties which yes, it'll cost me an extra $40/month for each but I'd rather be honest right from the get-go. Especially if the place is decent enough to stick around there a long while. It was obviously too early to know about availability come September but they put me on the list to contact in July and I should know by then whether I'll be able to move or whether I'll have to hold off for another year. I'll start crossing fingers come the end of June and will work on tons of spring cleaning and clearing over the next few months.
Our new business dude starts on April 7 so that's good. He seemed nice so hopefully Bosslady's cursing doesn't scare him off. Upon advice of the HR gal and Peggy my other Bosslady, I emailed Bossman to ask about what he envisions my job becoming with the merging of departments and let him know what both Bosslady and I thought would be a good idea (also dropping the suggestion to get the office a lower level admin). He actually responded that we should talk in the next couple of weeks about it. He's off with his wife having some sort of surgery this week so I was impressed that he emailed back and does want to chat about it. I know that Peggy will give me a good review to Bossman, hopefully Bosslady cooperates.
Update on the cussing challenge: need to reinforce paying attention. I've had too many slip ups and since the new dude looks to be a church goer and since it'd be a good idea to sound more professional, it'll be good practice.
Going to have some yummy Chinese food tonight with a buddy that I sorely hope does not run late like she tends to do. I'm kind of twitchy about that.
