Sucked Back

I'm filling in at work this week. Ugh. Ditto said it's like the Hotel California. "You can check out any time you want, but you can never leave." Apparently.

My last day was a month ago. The Monday after that, my counterpart (and it was only the two of us in our position) gave her notice. Only, her notice was a month long. Did they find a replacement? No. Did they bother to look? Not really. They were hoping to find someone by word of mouth. Sheesh. Then they finally posted an ad, and now they have a bundle of inadequate resumes. So I'm back. Temporarily.

Boy it had better be very temporary. I was just getting used to being home, and now I have to get my head back in the working mindset. Not to mention the scheduling nightmare it has created with the offspring's schedules. If I could have juggled those in the first place, I wouldn't have quit.

So I went in to the office Friday to have Counterpart catch me up on what's been going on, and what needs to be done... When I quit, I thought I'd miss everyone tons, and I'd miss the adult conversation, and knowing what is going on in everyone's lives... After being there one day, it's amazing how much I don't miss them.
