Had a few drinks last night, the head is a little fuzzy this morning. Normally that would be fine. Most mornings are easy and relaxed (I do more reading of the news than I do coding). But this morning…I walk in the door and someone informs me that ‘the website is blowing up.’ Great. Wish I drank a few less last night. ---

I hate doing my performance review! It’s even worse when they told us we are not getting a raise this year due to the economy. It’s due at the end of today and I just started. ---

They bumped all our raises back 6 months, so I’ll be due in November. Yippee. I’ve been busting my ass the past year and a half too, so hopefully it pays off. Best part about working at a small private company like this, our CEO is only a few offices away. If I’m not happy with the raise they give me, I can march into his office and demand to know what the fuck is up. ---

Yesterday sucked. I had an agent call in trying to access out website/software and when I asked her to log in, she said she didn’t have any passwords, etc. When I did some digging, no one set this lady up. She’s been working with our company and sister company since May and she never got login credentials from my company. Someone really dropped the ball. Oh, and she had this Panda anti-virus program. Let me tell you, that program is the biggest piece of crap on the planet. Her tech recommended it. That dude should close his business. She’s paying $130/yr for garbage. Don’t get Panda AV.
