so now that I had a few days to stew it over in my rather slow brain, I'm..... sorta wondering why it didn't happen sooner than this.

you see, for the past 8 months, I've been holding down the fort at the night shift. and I was lucky enough to keep the hold when the boss was changed.

and now, she told me she wants me to come back on morning duty and get into the repair management department. a field I'm fairly good at, yes, but also one which requires a ton load of paper work... have I ever mentioned how much I hate writing by hand?

anyway, the situation in which she informed me of this decision at the time was a little rushed and sudden. so I didn't really have any sort of reaction other than "you do? well, uh, when do you want me to start?"

but now I find myself wondering how the heck it came about. did she want me because of my past reputation in that department? or did the current manager there request me specifically out of the whole 6 of us? or did someone complain about the night shift being too cushy of a job for me?

I really have no idea what to think. I only know that I've been expecting something like this to happen for a while now. and now that it has, all I can really think about is all that gosh darn paperwork and having to deal with the sleazy, grimy, backstabbing politics of the morning shift.

and I highly doubt I could talk my way out of this one. she'll at the very least demand that I work that department just to see what i could do. and once I show her just how well suited I am to the job, she'll tie me down even tighter to it. especially because I'm very organized about the paper work behind it (as much as I hate it, I can't work properly without it.)

it's gonna be hell getting back into the swing of the repair department. and I'm so not mentally ready for that sort of work... I so wish that she could have waited until the end of the month for this... but apparently the manager at the moment is being overrun with demands and needs a second helper to hold things up... bleh! 6 other people and I get to be the one singled out, charming.

take care all,
Wazzy
