Did you really quit in an email? The only reason I’m still at my job is that I might possibly need a letter of recommendation from these people. Today I was told I have to start taking minutes at the weekly meeting and type them up, email them, and print them up to discuss the next week. I did not sign up for this. Also no where in my job description did it say I would have to transport human blood samples in my own car, but I am expected to do that as well. It is seriously gross, and I’m considering developing a pretend phobia to get out of it…

Don’t worry, neither of these jobs are the kind anyone is supposed to keep.

PowerPoint is so over used by business types I feel abused when I have to sit through a presentation that utilizes one.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the certificate. What the hell are we going to do with that? I think I’ll frame it and put it next to my personal computers certificate.

I guess powerpoint is good for schools, things have to be presented somehow. But for business it’s so lazy, especially if you are using it just to print it out, put it in a 3 ring binder and call it a proposal.

Miss you too, dude.

I remember trainings like that. Boy what a waste of time. You get a silly little certificate that isn’t even good for wiping your ass with.
By the way, Powerpoint is ALL the rage at my school. I never had any experience with it before, but I learned it in like 5 minutes, it’s the easiest thing ever. I think I have a degree in it now.
Miss you
