I found this video on YouTube about a cat that got an unexpected ride on a ceiling fan! It’s funny and sad at the same time. I’m glad that the cat is OK!

Friday, August 20th, 2010Summer Reruns
Wednesday, August 26th, 2009The TV networks have been running ads for weeks about the new season shows and yet we still have a long way to go before the premieres are on the air. I don’t think they need to tease us for over 3 months about upcoming shows. Couldn’t that air time be put to better use?
I’ve been watching repeat shows all summer and I’m totally sick of them. Some of the repeats are the fourth time I’ve seen the same episode. This is ridiculous. The networks are still programming and operating like this is the 1950’s. They need to realize that the viewers have different lifestyles now and quit with the summer reruns.
Passed the state certification test
Friday, October 24th, 2008I passed the state certification test last weekend – I was so surprised when I went on line to register for the test that I could take it on a weekend – the last time I checked the site the only times were mid-week. But a whole bunch of new locations were added, and the closest one to where I live does testing on weekends, so I signed up for the test. I was really nervous that I would not pass the test, but it was a lot easier than I expected. They allow an hour to do the test, but I finished it in twenty minutes. While I was there I met another pharm tech who had just finished the test and she told me it was easy.
I asked her where she worked and she told me it was a CVS in a nearby town. I asked her how much they paid and she didn’t want to tell me (shame.) I told her how much I had been paid where I WAS working and her eyes bugged out of her head and she told me that was all I could expect to get paid anywhere. So that was a disappointment – if I had realized that pharm techs were so poorly paid I probably never would have bothered pursuing that job!
No longer working there
Saturday, October 18th, 2008Well my boss told me that I wasn’t filling prescriptions fast enough – they only allow thirty seconds to fill a prescription! Can you believe that? And she told me that the other ladies were jealous of how quickly I was learning the job and were complaining about me all the time to her, making up lies about me about me being snobbish. The truth is that I’m shy, and they are interpreting it as being a snob. Well, long story short I told her that her place was the most hateful, hostile, and unsupportive place I’ve ever worked and wanted to transfer out of there as soon as possible. Wouldn’t you know it, two days later she fired me under the pretext of my being rude to a customer! Well, I wasn’t rude, and I’m shocked that I got fired, but I am really glad to be out of there! I was on the verge of quitting anyway. So I’m back to driving a school bus until I find a better paying full time job.
Not surprised, just disappointed
Monday, August 18th, 2008Well, I’ve been working at my new job for about two weeks now, and I have to say that I’m not surprised, just disappointed to find that people are just as crabby and aggravating here as they have been everywhere I’ve ever worked. I am being trained by several people who keep contradicting each other and telling me to do things “their” way, which is the exact opposite of the other training person’s way. I’m constantly being scolded for doing what I’ve been told to do, and it is very frustrating. I wish I was independently wealthy and could just stay home!
