Merry Christmas!
Also long time no see Scary, you've been doing alright?
Spending Christmas chilling at the house, have the weekend off, I'm soo going to enjoy this.
I've been doing well. Just been really busy lately. Before fall quarter at OSU started, I was working full-time, and taking part-time classes. I decided that I really needed to go to school full-time and work part-time in order to finish school and I set a goal for myself to do so by winter quarter. You would think going from a 100% employee to a 50% employee wouldn't be so hard, but being in the position I was in they were extremely unwilling to move me. I was the only person in my department that had senior pharmacy tech status because the other 12 people couldn't qualify for it for various reasons, so they wouldn't move me. Then, I had a stroke of luck or bad luck depending on how you see it. A 40 pounds box of saline was stored on a cart improperly and fell on my foot breaking my 4th and 5th metatarsals. I worked on it for three weeks as I really didn't know I broke it. It hurt all the time, but I figured it was a tissue contusion. It got pretty painful so I ended up going to employee health and I found out that I had broken it. I got a doctors order for light duty, and when I gave it to my boss person, she completely ignored it and refused to accommodate me. That ended up with me yelling at her and threatening to write me up and suspend me for insubordination...blah blah balh. Well, I left and went straight to HR, and bam, next thing I know, that bitch got fired, and I was at home chillin, and still am until January 16th. And, because she refused to accommodate me and had me working on it for a week after I had given her the doctors note, they were afraid I might take some legal action. So, I pretty much get to tell them what I want, and so far they've obliged me with everything. Got me a nice raise, moved to a second shift 50% position, full health benefits and they still have to pay for my entire education. Booya!
And during all of this I was renovating a new house that I currently am dwelling in with my lovely lady. It's dope. Gonna put some pics up with my sweet man-cave that I now have.
I'm glad everyone is doing well. I missed you guys. Things are settling down and I'll be popping in and out of here pretty regularly now. My school schedule is looking very nice next quarter with Math, CSE, and Engineering, and when I go back to work, my work schedule is almost entirely up to me.
