Monday meetings

Had my regular Monday project meeting. My part of this project is currently on hold, so I get to speak for about 15 seconds. The rest has nothing to do with me, so I'm forced to pretend to listen for the other 59 minutes and 45 seconds. Painful.

The rest of the day was busy. I didn't have time to grab a salad for lunch, so had to skip. My boss emails me that she wants to do my annual evaluation at 3pm in the cafeteria. Guess it's safer in a public setting? I respond that I'll be there, but will be a few minutes late since we're both scheduled to attend a division meeting from 2-3pm in a building a couple blocks away.

The 2-3pm meeting was so bad. They reviewed employee survey results. Rank of "offshore" as a concern to employee: #2. Number of minutes spent talking about offshore: 0. They also neglected to mention the upcoming staff cuts in our division.

( crappy review )

One good thing on Monday was that there was a new job posting that seemed to match my job talents really well. I might need to take a cut in pay, but that's fine. I'd rather be doing a job that I enjoy. I posted for the job and let my boss know. She was enthused.

Circle of Life for Lion King tickets

I stopped by the Orpheum box office after work yesterday. I needed to exchange the Lion King tickets that I had for this Thursday night. Nope. No exchanges. He suggested selling them, since the show was sold out. Um, yeah.

I got home and checked out Craigslist, but I didn't see other sales for Lion King. I checked eBay. Ok, there are some out there. I went ahead and posted a listing. The auction ends this evening, and so far the bidding is just shy of what I paid for the tickets. Cool. At least I won't have to eat all of the cost.
