Rubicon, did you hear?

The day I was on the air talking about the Pez Dispensers?

Walgreens had a collectors set of Wizard of Oz Pez Dispensers, seemed really cool.

It was like seven of the main characters.  Seemed like something you should know about.  smile.gif

No I did not hear that and have not been to Walgreens in years. But they just opened one by me and I may go after church to see!


And... you are talking on air?!? I have not listened in two weeks or so but when I do, I barely have time to listen- hazards of being the boss! Will you talk this week?

I'm kind of sporadic about it. I still don't get on much since I get home at 6:30 AM and generally go right to bed. hmm.gif

Next time I pan to actually be on for awhile I'll try to remember to let you know.

Is the job going well for you?

Don't you hate it when you post something to the wrong thread? I do!

I'll answer your question, but answer one for me. What are you doing now?

 

Being the boss is great! I have earned a lot of respect all over campus, from my employees, to the faculty and especially from the students. I have had 8 years to train though and I have a GREAT group of girls under me. I have 4 years to earn a master's degree though, that was one condition. But I did not even put in for the job, but was promoted and that felt great!

 

However, (as always with me!) my old boss let a position lapse in our office and has remained in the office while he does his new job. He told the VP we did not need the job (so he could get more money!) I do not want to say too much, but his personal life has gotten the best of him and we have all suffered. However, I went to the VP and asked for the position back and I believe that it will be given to me soon and then I will ask for them to move him out. We are all praying about it. He is very paranoid and has really let his bad attitude spread all over campus, so I am not afraid of him.

Wow, sounds like a crazy situation Ruby. I hope it all works out for the best.

I took a job at Marquette University. It kind of sucks, because I was actually called for a management position before I moved to NC but turned it down since I was moving. When I came back I was still able to get my foot in the door because I have a friend who works in Human Resources and I've got 12 years experience running my own commercial cleaning business.

BUT, I had to swallow my pride and take a basic building facilties job, which is a nice way of saying custodian/maintenance employee.

They said they'll be needing a new service manager as soon as a few of the buildings that are currently under construction open up, so I'm just hoping with my resume I can nab that job when it opens.

In the meantime, the pays not bad and the benefits are great, so I'm not complaining. Especially in this economy.

But if I'm still doing this job in about a year or so then I'll have no choice but to start looking elsewhere.

Well I am praying that things will turn around for you soon. But I agree, any job right now is a blessing!
