Well, for some reason, all of a sudden, I'm completely enveloped and submerged in work. The past week has just been a flood of emails, new hires, small "fires" and no end in sight. Last week I thought the start of a new week would result in less problems, less chaotic-ness, but no. It's just been more of the same. I don't want to complain, because I know that being busy is a great thing. But since nothing is gained by me being more busy, or less busy, it's almost like what's the point?
J and I went to a small, wonderful Mexican restaurant tonight, had some dinner & margaritas. He wanted to know what would happen if our corporate decided that we had to cut some of the "fat" and which office would have the most impact. Well, we talked about it. If you base it on profitability, our office is one of the worsts. We have such a high overhead, and don't have much in recruited work in order to balance that out. But, if you look at it in the bigger picture, our office does so much to support our corporate office for no extra costs. My co-worker helps with collections, without charging our corporate office for it. I streamline our newhire processes and handling everything for all the offices. That's free too. Sure, I cost money, but it's not as much of a chunk as it costs for our corporate. Anyways, it makes me worry/stress about it. I know that what I do is appreciated because I cause so little headaches and problems. When I send paperwork in, it's 100% complete. No extra work is required (to fix) anything from our HR or security dept or anything. So, that has to count for something, right? Well, I'm still sending out my "feelers" to hire people with Raytheon so we can maybe one day eventually become profitable. So email me! findmework2day@yahoo.com.
