Business People….

Business/managers shoud manage people, not people that don’t know how to manage people. You can’t tell one person that they’re going to do something, and then when they next come in to work tell them that it’s already been done. You can’t assign something to one person and have them do half the work and then tell another person to jump in in the middle and complete it when they don’t know what’s going on. You can’t do these things in the managerial world, why does she not understand this???

You can’t run a business or an effective IT department without a plan of action and clearly she has no plan of action. She needs to sit down and decide what this company needs and where we’re going with our IT. You can’t just say, OH I feel like spending some money today, lets go buy something, as much as I enjoy doing that.

We have three computers, very good computers sitting around doing nothing currently, they have been for almost a month now. They were good computers and we told her that, they just needed to be upgraded, but she went out and bought three two new computers to replace the three… Now we have no where for those three to go, so it’s wasted money down the drain…. Instead of listening to us when we told her our plan for backups, she went with her outrageous plan, which uses over 70 tapes, each tape costing $35, you do the math. More Government wasted money.. And you wonder where you’re tax dollars are going, they’re going to organizations which the government has chosen completly incompetent people to manage.

She shouldn’t be in any posistion to do any management, put her back in her office and let her do her programming, when we need money to update something, we’ll ask for it, but don’t just do what we’ve told you not to do. It’s just a waste of money. Don’t go behind your employees backs, that’s the fastest way to get them to distrust you.

I hate stupid managers.

Today I was supposed to upgrade two of our Macs to OSX, take those three old servers and reformat them and do something with them….

But instead when I got here, she said “Oh, Chris already did that on Friday, you need to do ….”

So Instead I’m doing something of Chris’, which I have no Idea what I’m doing, she says that I need to learn about it, but when I don’t even know how it’s currently implemented, I can’t really learn about it to tell her the best implenemtation of things. I don’t know where the documentation is at either to figure things out.

She also said that I need to get in touch with Shelly… Which one?? The one that’s gone today… But I’m supposed to make some graphics, which she already has, I don’t see why she can’t just take the 5 seconds to do it herself. Gwar.

I’m really frustrated today with everything, I’m just going to program things.

Homophobics

Today’s been really long. Not much has been done today either. I went to class, we have a test on Friday. I think I should go to the review session on Thursday. It should help alot. Then I went to work, Nazanin was overly annoying today as well. I just hung out in my office most of the day and did random things. It was alright.

Then I came back and we had a test in ComS. I think I kicked it’s ass, but there was one things I fucked up on cause I couldn’t remember the syntax of it. Oh well. Hopefully I’ll get most of the points on it.

Then I came back to my dorm room. Last night at the House meeting Sri brought something up about things on people’s door’s. I have up three pictures, one has a lesbian couple on it, the other has a str8 couple, and the last one has a gay couple… All of them are of the couple kissing. At the bottom of them it says “Everyone has a right to love.” Well apparently someone on the floor had a problem with that, and they complained to Sri, he talked about it in the house meeting and said that we can have anything on our doors we want. So after wards I talked to him and he actually encouraged me to keep them up there. He also told me who it was that bitched. But back to the story, when I got home tonight, the one with the gay couple had been ripped down. Ha, I put one right back up…. I’ve got a supply of them.

Stupid homophobic people. They can’t beat me.

Work

So here I am at work. They’ve really annoyed me today though. Last Thursday I ordered some new stuff for my office. Well it came in yesterday, and instead of waiting for me to get here to put the damn stuff in, they decided that they would do it themselves. Now, these parts aren’t something that are critical to anything, it’s just a little box that makes it to that one keyboard and one mouse contolls all the computers in my office (A KVM switch for those more techincal people). I mean, we’ve been working on ordering one for months, it’s just that we never got around to it because we hadn’t ordered anything from somewhere that had them, and we didn’t want to pay shipping on just that. So we waited. But yeah, so I came in today, both my computers were pulled out, my laptop was on the floor, there were boxes and plastic wrapp just thrown on my desk, my picture of Adam had been knocked down behind my desk, everything was just a mess. And that really pissed me off. First because it’s my office, they should have just left it on my desk, second, they screwed everything up and didn’t even bother putting anything back, third they left thier trash on my desk, and fourth they didn’t even get it set upright. Grrr.

But now I’m working on my C++ hw and some other random stuff. It’s alright.

Worse Weekend, Part 2

Ok, well we’ll start out with Friday….

Friday was a long time ago, but I vaguly remember it. I know that I left here about 10, so I went home, dropped off my stuff and then went to Hy-Vee to study. I got there about 11:30 and went to work. About 2 or so Mandy came in and we talked about her infamous qoute. She wouldn’t tell me anything, which really annoyed me. But she said “Be Patcient” that’s about all that both her and Jessica would tell me. Then about 3:30 or so, Angel came in, and I was going to just ignore her, cause Adam had said that he wanted to see her again together. But she saw me and came over, we hugged and said “hi” then she went off and talked to Nina. Angel came back and had to leave, so we said bye and such. By that time she had already had plans with Nick, which kinda hurt. But it’s her choice who she wants to go out with. Adam got there about 4, and said that he had been having a really really bad day. So we talked about that some, and I think he was a bit better. He worked and I studied. Mark Blunk called Adam up to the office, and talked to him. He was pretty much an asshole and told Adam that he couldn’t protect him from people harrasing him cause being gay was against the Bible and shit. That really hurt Adam and it really hurt me as well. After work we went back to his house, and then went to my house and went hot tubbing. It was really nice….

Saturday was another day from hell. Sorry if I get some of these things out of order, but I don’t really remember all that much of how things went in order. I went into my mom’s office that morning and sorted a shit load of papers. It was annoying as hell. I left there about 2:00 with $30 more dollars in my pocket then I started the day with, so that was nice. From there I went to Adam’s. We went Christmas shopping. That was fun, but we didn’t get anything purchased, Traffic was hell and so was parking. I had a splitting headache by the time we got out of there. Oh well. From there we went to Angel’s. Not really good times there though. We got there, and she didn’t really seem all that enthused to see Adam, or me really. And that kinda hurt, you know. It’s like we haven’t seen you for 4 months, and you’re just being casual about everything. Oh well, again, that’s the way she is, nothing hostile towards her. Then Adam told her about what Mark told him, and she agreed with him, that really hurt us both, she’s really been brainwashed. We want our Angel back. We left there about half an hour later cause we had to take Abbie to SNL. So we did that and then went back to Adam’s house and worked on his computer. That devil box. We were up all night working on that damn thing. Fucking computers I don’t see why I’m going into MIS. Gwar. I spent the night at Adam’s that night and it was good to sleep with him again. Everynight I long for him next to me and I wish that we could be there laying next to each other everynight. It’s just such a great feeling to wake up in the middle of the night and look over to see his face there, to see him sleeping so soundly. I love him so much.

Sunday, another day from hell…. Everything was going fine until about 1ish. Melinda was leaving to go somewhere, she went out, and a couple minutes later she came in with this horride look on her face, and said that she hit something. I think Adam said, “Chris’ Car” and she said “Yes.” I about lost it right there. My new car, my $9,000 pride and joy. I loved that car. I felt so bad for her though and I felt even worse for myself, that now they were going to have to deal with this problem, we were going to have to deal with this. I hate having to do that to people that I care for and care about. I really didn’t want them to have to pay for it. I really didn’t. And to make things worse. I called my parents, just for a little support, to have them tell me that everything would be alright. That they’ll take care of it. But they didn’t they just yelled at me. And they wouldn’t stop either, they called about 4 times in an hour. I was in tears. Bawling my eyes out cause they hurt me so much, cause this whole weekend had just put so much stress on me that I couldn’t take it anymore. I felt as though I had done something horribly wrong and that someone was making me pay for it now. I sat there on their couch, in Adam’s arms just crying my eyes out. Melinda came out and talked to me about it though, and she was very comforting. I love her so much, she’s like a mother to me, they’re like a family to me and I know I’ve said this before, but I really do feel more at home in thier house then I do in my own house. I dread going to my house anymore, sometimes I just wish that I could move in with them. I wish that my parents weren’t such assholes. I wish that they would be more caring then they are and that they would understand that when I called them I was already on the verge of a breakdown and that their yelling at me pushed me over the edge, at that point I was seriously thinking about just driving my car off the bridge or something, then no one would have any problems anymore. But Adam and his family was there for me. And I just want to say thank you to them for everything they’ve done for me. For letting me spend the night there, to letting me eat supper with them, for comforting me when my own parents won’t and for just being there.

I want to say thank you to Adam,
For being there when I needed you the most
For being there so that I could just cry in your arms
When I needed to cry
For being there to talk to you
When I needed to talk
For being there to make a joke
When I needed to be cheered up
For being there
For loving me
For everything
Thank you Adam,
I love you.

Nazanin

Nazanin annoys me so much sometimes. Today is one of those days. First off, last Friday we were supposed to have done a backup. She came in and and decided to play with things, and she fucked up the backup schedule. Grrr at that. Then they also got an UPS, and decided it couldn’t wait tell I got here to put it in, so they fucked up my computer and messed up my desk putting it in. Then when I go and tell her that the backup wasn’t done and that I was fixing it. She decides to come in here and go through it all and fuck it up again. I had it fixed, all I had to do was save it. But she came in and decided that she needed to mess with things, she went to do something else and a box came up; asking her if she wanted to save what she had done, before I got the words “Yes save it” out of my mouth she had said, “What am I doing, I don’t know.” And clicked no. All my work was lost. And of course since she’s my boss, I couldn’t really yell at her. Grrr. And then I’ve also got this system up for backup’s. It’s a nice system like any other company would use. Well, she dicides to come in and fuck with it all too. Grrr. Just stay the hell out of my office. I’ll make sure backup’s are done, I’ll get things working. You just go sit in your office and do what ever it is you do in there all damn day long. Rarr.

I can’t wait tell Thursday when I get to see Adam again. Apparently Mandy and Jessica said something to him. And I want to know what all was said, since I feel that what they said is something that also effects me.
