How is work?

Well, see, that's I question I had to ask myself. How is work?

It very well depends on who you ask. Although the general concensus is that it's not going well. There are some minor job cuts, and some people quit. The warehouse guy, with no notice, and someone from my side, also with no notice. So, we have more budget now? Do we, Do we? The budget is the thing that is worried about the most. We have more and more competition, and ther is a Fry's Electronics coming to the area. Well, that means, we will have even less traffic to our store. Although other businesses in the area are also cutting hours, and everything. I wish it wasn't like that, but there is no choice.

Now, the climate at work? Well, it's not hostile, but there are disagreements everywhere. I about a week ago, got labeled insubordinate in a situation by my direct boss. Granted, I were talking over the cubes. He told me to chill out, and I told him that I was just a tense person, to let me get back to my duties, and that is the end of the conversation. To which he replied, "As soon as you are done, I want to see you in my office." What was I insubordinate for? His request for me to control the way I feel? F*ck that. Granted, we did say that over the cubes, which was not very appreciative of everyone else trying to work.

I go to work, I don't want to be there. I just go in, have a task list I have to run trough. Although, I have enough interuptions, and issues that needed not to exist. This make it hard, if not impossible to be effective the way some people want me to.

The managers really don't help. There is no recognition for doing the right things. If one try to say something, they always turn it around, and spit back something that is negative, and not constructive. Or, they say some meaningless garble, and working together, just so the next second they can take away even more.
