I think the time happens about once or twice a week. Sometimes it isn’t as serious while other times, I start actually keeping track of things. The time is when I swear I cannot take this job any more and it is time to move on. I actually start looking for a new job and then realized how truly and thoroughly screwed I am when it comes to looking for a different job. Oh, there is a job at
I have no certification or stamp of approval that says “Yes, I know how to do this computer stuff!”. I have no proven track record with doing fundraising, because it all goes thru Marci and credit is never divided out. Then, I get worried that I think that I have more skills than I truly do have. I do rely upon help desk to do a lot of the troubleshooting. Half the time, I think I act like a goose with a chopped off head. I never truly know what the answer is. I guess at a lot of things. What kind of place would hire that?
There are benefits to what is going on here. I get 17 days vacation. My boss virtually doesn’t do any supervising until he is 4 to 5 months late with the reviews and then he gives the obligatory – your attitude sucks speech. I can create my own hours. I have cool guys at help desk that make me laugh when things are bad. I can talk to Board Members and not have to worry about the stuck-up attitude and entitlement that most Board Members have.
But days like this, when my wireless connection might as well be called wireless-less, and when I get ambiguous reports of ‘the state says there is something wrong with our connection’ while there are no hints of any problems – I almost want to high tail it Florida, to work at Disney, where things have got to be easier to understand, where there probably is a boss that would supervise and not let me just hang in this vast wonderland of nothingness.
Yep, it’s that time again.
