This week is the week that the PG is off on his tropical Hawaiian birthday holiday. I had plans. My plans included starting to study for my CCNA that I’m finally going to be allowed to test for in June when I go to Networkers. However, the plans aren’t going so well because I’m so stressed out about the yahoo-half-crazy-man that my PG thinks would be a perfect match to be my Part Time Tech Staff member. I need the PG to listen to me about this one, because I know in my heart that there is no good to come from this plan of his.
The horrible thing is, I fear that if I tell him “no way” that means I won’t get ANY staff. I need staff so badly, but I need staff who will work with me. This person... this thing... I’m going to chew him up and spit him out in less than a week. He still can’t talk to me after emails for the past week and a half. He is constantly in this “calming down in peace because I’m stressed out” mode that scares the crap out of me. Computer work is stressful, especially at my place of employment. We hire people who don’t even know what the power button is – so our staff members need their hands held so much. It would drive even the best technicians batty (and I’ve seen it happen in my own very eyes!)
But this is going to be my first true ‘supervisory’ experience, but I haven’t been given any choices in this. I’m being given a very possible volatile situation to work in if the PG’s plans stand. This is what has been stuck in my head all day – I should be studying. I need to get working on my CCNA training! I need to focused on that – not this!
