I am used to kittens, cats, and substantial puppies that grow into big dogs. I'm always afraid I will drop him but fear holding him too tight.

Even though holding him is not my idea of fun I am pleased to say she has no clue.

He is a sweet pup and is going to be a good dog.

Good night, friends.

Four!

Good night, Singdaw.

I may retire early. I have less than 30 pages in my latest Edith Wharton novella, Sanctuary.

It was a busy day. Not altogether stressful. Just busy.

That’s my news.

Gratuitous post No. 99!

Good night, all.

I’m enjoying the notes on the making of Nothing in Common, a movie I’ve never seen.

Ditto and ditto.

I checked, and my library doesn't have it.

George · « **Reply #103 on:** June 23, 2021, 10:56:32 PM »

I guess I'll have to purchase it from somewhere.

George · « **Reply #104 on:** June 23, 2021, 10:56:39 PM »

I'm home.

George · « **Reply #105 on:** June 23, 2021, 10:56:55 PM »

So, things have been changing at work.

George · « **Reply #106 on:** June 23, 2021, 10:57:17 PM »

A few months ago, my supervisor quit and got a consulting job where he can stay home all the time.

George · « **Reply #107 on:** June 23, 2021, 10:57:26 PM »

Good for him, but not for us.

George · « **Reply #108 on:** June 23, 2021, 10:57:38 PM »

He really knew his stuff.

George · « **Reply #109 on:** June 23, 2021, 10:57:58 PM »

They eventually hired a guy who seemed to know his stuff too, so that's good.

George · « **Reply #110 on:** June 23, 2021, 10:58:15 PM »

But for some reason, they let him go after only two months!

George · « **Reply #111 on:** June 23, 2021, 10:59:03 PM »

Since he was on probation (everyone is on probation for six months), any new employee can be fired and any new employee can quite for no reason...hence probation.

George · « **Reply #112 on:** June 23, 2021, 11:00:21 PM »

So, another person who oversees a couple of other departments took over the general supervision (she admitted that she knows nothing of finance and is just supervising us), and the hunt for a new Finance Manager continued.

Well, the temp supervisor is more of a by-the-book kind of supervisor and doesn't allow personal use of the computer (accessing Internet sites) unless work related, so I can't log into sites like HHW when I'm at work anymore.

George · « **Reply #114 on:** June 23, 2021, 11:08:23 PM »

I will follow the rules (now that I've been ~~caught~~ reminded of the policy), so I'll have to ketchup on my breaks or lunch and after work.

In the words of Ladislav Sipos in She Loves Me: DO NOT...LOSE...YOUR JOB!

George · « **Reply #117 on:** June 23, 2021, 11:17:47 PM »

I'm sure that it'll be fine.

Vixmom - From what I have been able to figure out from today’s posts, I assume your office is closing, and you are unemployed. I am so very sorry about your news. After all those horrible years at your former job, I figured God was making it up to you. At least you know now what to look for in a new employer and hopefully you will not have to settle for less.
