Hey<\/p>\n
So over the past few weeks that I haven’t blogged.. I have thought much about blogging, just really haven’t made the time to do so.<\/p>\n
I’ve worked, 20 days straight… and 25 of 27 days<\/p>\n
In those 20 days I worked 196 hours.<\/p>\n
In one week I worked 82 hours, then 90 the following week.<\/p>\n
Its been a time to set some records for time worked, days worked straight.. and I can say that those won’t be broken any time soon.<\/p>\n
Payroll called our center, talked to my manager, the director and her manager to make sure the hours on my timecard were correct.<\/p>\n
Why work all that time? Well.. I didn’t have anything better to do. But I think that more sleep would have helped during the whole process.<\/p>\n
On the 20th day I was on my second day of running a fever, so I decided to take Sunday off (before returning to work on Monday). On Monday I started to lose my voice, and by Tuesday had lost it completely. My manager told me to take Wednesday off and I worked Thursday and Friday with a whisper as my voice. I have been able to rest this weekend and my voice has came back a lot more than it was. This next week our team will probably have mandatory overtime (because everyone else refused to work it).. so I will be working overtime, just not at the rate I was.<\/p>\n
On last Saturday (the last day of my overtime worked) I received an email from one of the managers on the floor. It said: <\/p>\n
Jason,
I thinks it time you joined me at a Workaholics anonymous seminar,
Free coffee, doughnuts, red vines, and on occasion jalapeno pizza.
Seminars are held at my desk W-Saturday 5am \u2013 5pm

I thought it was funny. I had to reply.<\/p>\n
Subject: RE: WA meetings
I would come if I could,
But the meetings are untimely
I\u2019ll be a few steps away at my desk.. working.<\/p>\n
Fitting.. I thought.<\/p>\n
My manager has been crazy happy that I worked so much overtime, treating us out to lunch, personally thanking me for working the projects (that helped her make her deadline) and getting me a gift certificate.<\/p>\n
I am planning on moving in the beginning of May. I have sent an email to my manager asking if I can move to a work at home agent. I hope that is an option as I would stay with this company if possible. However, they have been phasing the at home agents out… so… I don’t think it is a true possibility.<\/p>\n
I have asked JJ if he is ready to move by May- he said he will be more than ready. Good thing they offered overtime, because I am ahead of the game for my finances… and also very ready to move.<\/p>\n
So much has past in the last month.
It was Emily’s Birthday on Feb 24th..
And since I’ve posted the Blazers have played 12 games, winning 8 of those 12.<\/p>\n
In the next week it will be my parents 33rd anniversary and JJ’s 26th birthday.<\/p>\n
So much to do, so little time.<\/p>\n
Alas, I’m out of time.<\/p>\n
just Pray.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
