Scream
Yesterday was crazy. As of right now, I technically have no boss. So some backstory. I haven't seen my actual boss since my first day. He was scheduled to be out that first week I started for an event. No big deal right? A few days on my on my own, meet people, get familiar. Well, his wife is sick and she ended up having surgery scheduled for Monday. It was supposed to be a simple surgery, out by Tuesday. He was planning to be back in the office yesterday. Yeah, no.
He popped his head into my office around 8am yesterday morning and this was clearly a man who hadn't slept in days. Surgery complications. She was still in the hospital. He is going to be out for at least another week. What I learned is when this happens and someone takes an official Leave of Absence, they fully shut you out. He has no email, no access. For the next week and a half, he doesn't exist. That means I now on paper report into the EVP. Who we all know doesn't really have time for me. I am on my own. This will be the ultimate test of my character. I am still plodding along learning things. I had my LOTO training yesterday. Lock Out Tag Out is the full name. Learning how to properly turn off machinery for safety. Those of us in these kind of positions actually get personalized locks. I also have meetings with other people scheduled. I am okay just find it funny. I did spend time yesterday writing an agent that scanned a directory, read the files in the directory and moved them to proper folders. That was kind of cool. I will spend more time on stuff like that today.
Got home around 5, made cheesesteaks for dinner. Home the next few days. Let's see what the rest of this week brings.
