HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SAM!
(yeah, I know, it would have been a lot more effective last night or this morning! lol)
So, I guess it's time for my work rant...OMG...words may not even describe the situation. I've gone on and on about the kids there that just don't seem to care and we have gotten rid of one. ONE. O-N-E. (although, it was kind of fun to watch someone that everyone knew was going to be fired that day except him) I still have to watch as those around me flaunt rules, not because they don't know any better, but because they don't care. Just once I would love to just slap them upside their empty heads. Remember the scene in "Moonstruck" with Cher slapping Nic Cage upside his head, "Snap out of it!"--yeah, that's what I want to do.
On another work subject, the "commission structure" has changed again. Rumor has it that the big boss has said that he wants to get rid of about 60% of the employees. Will this change do it?
1. Goals may change from cycle to cycle "dictated by the business needs" --really means, "whenever we feel that you guys are getting too good and too much money, we'll change it to make it harder"
2. About any issue "not specifically addressed" in our new plan, interpretations and modification of the plan, the VP has the final authority--really means , "if there's something we were too stupid to put in here or you guys figure out how it all actually works, the big boss has the authority to change it--really fast"
3. "The Company"(name deleted to protect the guilty) reserves the right to alter,amend, or cancel this plan -any part or altogether , at any time and at its sole discretion--see above--they make this statement a few times, just in case you miss the fact that while it may be here today, tomorow may see the whole thing gone or ....God forbid, a plan that actually makes sense in its place.
4. We, being the smartest group of people in the Company, reserve the right to adjust any monthly targes and crediting process to reflect any "unusual circumstances that directly impact" the dear customer service reps ability to meet the targets we unfairly have arbitrarily put on them--again, see above..."if we think you guys are getting good enough to actually do what we are asking you to, we are sooooooo gonna change them!"
Oh, and just to make sure, we are gonna make everyone sign a piece of paper every single freakin month to so that you remember exactly what the stupidass program is.
So, I used to have the problem that the customers weren't happy with me but the company said I was doing what I was supposed to be doing when they listened to me. Now, the customers love me but I'm not doing everything the company says I'm supposed to do. Sigh...ever get the feeling that you are never going to understand or be able to do your job?
I'm thinking that it's going to be sooooo tough for me ...and sooooo stressful...yes, stress....I can feel my whole body turning into one big knot of stress....yup.
So, maybe I'll have more "fun" stuff to rant about.....it's just take all of my energy to get that rant done....happy Thursday, y'all!

Did you think they would make anything easier. They would be happy if we were GONE and Colorado Springs were the main place. Mind you the powers that be are going to keep their high ass salaries even if it means to get rid of US! It's all dog eat dog now and whoever the biggest dog in the yard is will be the winner. I rememeber when.. lol that seems to be the statement off everyones lips these days. Its painfully clear that the "company" could give a damn about anyone who is human. It will be more stressful, no one cares if it is. You can see the hand writing on the wall. I guess it is truly time for me to go back to college and continue my education before I wish I had. Yeah can't wait until the 4th to return back to my place of employment. I take back what I said earlier about missing my job. Can someone pass me a zarax please.
