Perpetual Ruminations

Sunday

That's just not right! I had started my entry here, then got a call and had to run. I saved and closed down my computer, then returned to pick things back up, and there's no entry. It's just not right I tell ya, just not right. I suppose I either didn't have the title in or I just shut down my browser to fast and it didn't get a chance to save. Luckily, I didn't have a lot written.

I had expressed my tiredness working a long day today. I was pretty sure it would be a long day, so I brought my netbook in with me. I'm off now, just waiting for Rhonda to finish work because we are riding together for a while. I need to do some work on my Jimmy, but just have not had time t do it.

I did get some god news at from work, they are going to let us use our phones and we can have tablets and e-readers at work now. No laptops, but I did ask about this, my netbook. The assistant general manager thinks it will be fine, since it's not much more than a tablet with an attached keyboard. He said he would double check with the general manager, just to make sure.

If this is alright, it will save me a lot of time and headaches. Currently, we cannot have our phones, not even the supervisor. So, if something comes up, no one has any way to reach me while at work. Now that has changed, and I can use my phone at work.

Even better, since I have to do most of my paperwork on my computer, I end up doing it after I get home. Some of it will still need to be done from home, but if I can have this netbook at work, I can do most of my stuff while at work. The mornings are very slow for the first couple hours, plenty of time for me to get some work done.

The guy who's been out for medical reasons called yesterday. It was my day off, but I didn't mind taking a business call from him. His boy is finally doing better and it sounds like he will be able to start picking up some hours again.

It sounds like things are finally starting to work for me instead of against me. Now, if they just continue in this direction, I'll actually have some time to do a few things other than work real soon. It's hard not to be excited, yet at the same time, I don't want to set myself up for disappointment, either.
