When will it stop...

Work drama continues....

Its amazing how grown ass adults can act like children.

How do people like this get hired....who interviewed them?

I honestly feel that certain people have been hired out of desperation.  There is NO way in hell that after speak with this specific person that we actually thought the hire was a good idea.

I can't see how this employee could have faked it through an interview without their true colors coming out.

On any given day after speaking with this person for 5 minutes my head is spinning and wants to explode.

I have been in work for over half the day now...there is one co-worker...and ONLY one...who hasn't acknowledged that I am even in the building.

I can feel the hostility in the air.

Side note...this person will be happy to hear that I won't be in the office on Monday.  I have a long three day weekend...which is much needed and deserved.

I am hoping that our office staff will be permanently DOWN one person when I get back.

I have heard rumor that its in the works.

Politically Correct

There is a lot of talk about political correctness lately.

I think a lot of it has to do with our President.  But it also has to do with the century/era we are living in.

I don't give a shit. 

Don't get me wrong.  I'm not walking about saying offensive things, degrading people or even being rude.  If you are talking about a subject and you are saying exactly how you are feeling then you should be able to safely say it.  I guess within reason.

I think there are also different levels and versions of political correctness.

When my mother was in physical rehab the aids/nurses that were taking care of her were of all different nationalities.  None of that matter (most of them sucked at their job) but the ones who were dark skinned my mother insisted on referring to them as "the colored girl".  They never heard her or were even aware she was saying that...at least I am 99% sure but I feel that was rude to say in general.   When I have told that story to friends...they say its the generation.  Still wrong but I agree

SO now with our generation its different.  We would never say anything like that.  As a matter of fact I think we are so politically correct that its almost offensive if we say anything. 

My mom has now moved into assist living.  When I tell people their response is always "I'm so sorry..that must have been a hard decision or hard on you"  Are they saying that to be politically correct too? 

Because it wasn't

It wasn't a hard decision and it hasn't been hard on me.

Its been a lot of work...searching, paperwork and moving her but that it.

My mom is old...she has become unstable when walking, she hasn't been eating properly or bathing properly.  This decision was a no brainer. 

So does that fall under the political correctness issues going on....

I have no idea...nor do I have any idea if this post even makes sense.

Doesn't have to either...
