Well...

Past few days have been fairly quiet for me. Then again, I've been fighting off what the doctor is calling a sinus infection. I've been on medication since Thursday, but can't seem to shake the cough. It's like a tickle in my chest. It's been quieter than the past couple of days, but not fully gone yet.

Had a good laugh at work today. In order for you to laugh with me, we have to go back about 3 weeks or so. Someone at work (a temp) decided he was a racecar driver, and while I was backing out of my spot (and thankfully, my co-worker, who I left with wasn't backing out), he decided to not bother stopping and cut me. I caught a glimpse of the license plate, but had a real good idea of who it was. The next day, in the office, I confronted him about it ... in front of others. When I confronted him about it, he laughed and tried to make a joke out of it, totally ignoring the fact that someone could have been hurt, including a pregnant woman! I told him if he thinks it's a joke, to keep laughing, and I'll make sure he doesn't cut anyone off anymore. That I will slash all of his fucking tires. That's pretty much how I put it too.

Well, apparently the "f" word offended someone, because they called Human Resources on me and put in a complaint. Now ... me cursing is not uncommon. However, I have been MORE than good the past few months. I've been careful. Sometimes my emotions get the better of me, this I know. But after ONE infraction, they don't have the balls to go to someone IN the office to say "hey, Nick has to be careful." No, they put in a formal complaint against me.

Today I had a conversation of what I'd like to do in the future with the company I am with. I mentioned again about being the senior CSA. You know what? I'm now thinking against it. I want to help those that will pull that crap? Nope, I don't think I do. I was told to do for me. That's what I'm going to do.

Next year (a month away) I will be getting in touch with a recruiter who has recently gotten in touch with me. I will have them update my resume and I will be sending it out. No more excuses of "I'm old" or "I have no teeth, so who would want me" or anything like that. It's time for ME. To hell with those that don't even care whose career they may cause turmoil to. And trust me, when I leave (yes, WHEN), this will be said OUT LOUD to my fellow CSA's.
