Something else I forgot

Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] sorceror for the Forgetful Jones pic. It is now a happy icon. :)


The thing I forgot to mention (among many others, I'm sure) is that they fired the little Italian boy at work this week. I can't say I'm surprised. It's not that he wasn't a good worker, because he was, and he was nice in his own way. He just played a little too fast and loose with his hours worked/hours charged. He was warned repeatedly, and when he ignored the warnings he was fired. That and a few other things.

It's too bad. I kind of liked him, and he certainly kept things interesting. The central is much quieter without him around. That's a good thing and a bad thing. I'm not worried about him: he's finishing school in another month and he'll be able to concentrate full-time doing ceramic work, which is what he wanted to do anyway.

Oh well. The good news is that they like me, think I'm doing a great job, and have patted me on the back and told me to carry on as I've been going.

You're welcome. :-)

He obviously had it coming.

He may still be a nice person, but really, you're better off without him there overall, aren't you?

Finally! I'm glad that you've finally found a workplace where you're being appreciated as you deserve.
