The constant count down....

Well today was insane. Work was just bonkers.
I started out regularly enough...pulling tickets and answering questions, but then suddenly Greg or gashe as he is called comes up and says hey Masker come with me.

Now gashe is a 3rd lvl managment type with rank 8 of the spell Fire Your Ass, so although gashe and I had a good repore, I was nervous needless to say.

Well I go to his office and he tells me that I am managing the new moniter hardware project. Amazing, floored. I am not even full time yet. So I go and get some people and head over to the Developer (tremble in fear of the power) Building. We go in and see their sweet ass set up, much higher class....and my goal...it was like getting to taste the prize at the end of the race....well more like smell it.

So we haul 60 uber flat screen moniters back to the GM building and set some up. Then gashe and gashe's boss...have another job for me, go to Home Depot for supplies and then hang and post the new team boards. Now this may sound like a menial labor job, but for them to take GM's off the floor and send them on the clock out into LA traffic is like crazy talk, and stuff Seniors and Specialists do.

Anyway an hour later I am back from Home Depot and hanging team boards with another guy (a Senior). After 4 hours off the ticker queues I am done.

An hour later I am called into gashe's office again and told to go out. Unfortunately the stores were closed as I had to remind him cause although LA is big city, not everyone works on the 24hr clock.

I had to work 2hrs over time to make quota and came home exausted. Tomorrow I am heading to do GM chore's in town before heading to work, they said just tell us how long it takes. That is trust for an employee paid per hour, in LA traffic at 2PM.

I am thinking that this means I am impressing someone. Must work extra hard now the eyes are all around me.

36 Days now, I can't wait...I don't have to call minutes cause its the weekend.
