When I Should Be Working...

Here I am blogging.

But at least I know I'm not the only one.

In any case, today finds me with a major ebb in energy and a crest in exhaustive irritability. It's already Wednesday and I feel as if the week is slipping by. Of course that doesn't mean that the deadlines get swept away when the week is done.

Nope. They are right here. Leering over my shoulder with their fetid breath. The joys of office life. I thought that I'd finally be able to have a week where I can actually get some work done. But no...3 meetings and an unexpected project falling into my lap.

I'm not cut out to produce websites. It's just one of the hats I've ended up wearing as a consequence of 9/11. When you cut the staff to bare bones, I guess you have to stretch those left as much as possible to fill in the gaps. I just wonder where the breaking point is.

I could call myself lucky because my boss *does* actially do some work. I know that there are others in my situation that have no recourse.

I also know that I can consider myself lucky because I have a job. It's unfortunate that not everyone woke up this morning to find the same true for their situation.

To the unemployed masses: As Monster says, It may be today. Keep on keeping on and good luck.

As for me, I'll try to stop bitching...at least for a few minutes. :-)

Maybe if I stop whining...I can actually get some work done.
