cblj_backupIt's probably about 60F in Chicago right now. The sun is out, and spring is on the way.
I will not be physically comfortable again for six months.
I am so very against heat. I have no idea why anyone would voluntarily pay to go somewhere warm for a vacation. I want to escape the warmth!
I should have been a polar researcher. Surely there are project manager positions open in Greenland or something.
They finally hired my replacement for my old job, who I got to meet today. I was bummed they didn't hire the woman who's been temping in that position, but apparently she didn't have enough experience. (Six months of doing the job doesn't qualify? I hear you ask. Welcome to one of the many reasons I'm glad I got out of that department.)
I don't want to say the woman who did get the job is stupid, but...well, there's a certain air about her I can best describe as vacant. Perhaps she's just overwhelmed. That doesn't bode well in and of itself, but I'm willing to extend the benefit of the doubt. I won't really ever interact with her in a professional sense.
It may make my visits to the 19th floor to flirt with Coworker Crush a little more difficult, but my heart is pure and I will persevere.
