3 weeks in and i thought everything was going GREAT!! Till Friday morning... The other girl he hired, Tammy, got fired in the morning. She started a week after me. Two weeks and she is done. We left early on Thursday while the boss was away and we got caught, but I owned up to it and sadly she didn't. I did work through my lunch on Thursday so that i could leave an hour early for an appointment that I had.

I feel bad for her though. She needs the money from the job and she quit a company that she had worked for a for a long time to come into our workplace and do something related to our field. We were both really surprised about what happened.

So now it is just me and the boss....that is it. I really liked going to work in the morning, but now, sadly, I don't want to go. It is a really tense environment where Tammy broke a bunch of the monotony.

I don't know what direction to go from here...I have other interviews that I have turned down cause I liked this job. Now, who knows. BUT my intro period is up and the end of this week and hopefully I will feel more secure after that meeting. I hate not feeling welcome or wanted...that is how I felt at my last position for 7 months. I hate that feeling!

The show went well on friday! Will be blogging about it. Mercury System was before your time here but it was a full-featured IM system I had programmed which would allow anyone with a site to offer an IM system for their members. Sadly it may be all gone. But chances are i will work on it again. I was talking with Dave about making NuTang it's launching site..as in the first site to offer it as a service to give it a full test with all the members that would be on it. I spent about 50+ hours programming..I think more...so it'll be tough starting over again but I doubt that I have a choice.

I hope things go better at your job and that you do find some more comfort in it after your intro period meeting =0)

I have to disagree with you. I have heard his race mentioned plenty of times in states aside from the south. Aside from that KY isn't a southern state it's a central state, and I know because I grew up in the south lol.

And it isn't just people you meet. Try hearing a news story, even on cnn and similar stories, that don't mention at least once that he is the first serious african american candidate for president. The media simply cannot help themselves.
