Work

So, I got let go at work today. I am training my replacement, how nice is that!! They say I can stay until the 27th, but I'm out of here as soon as I find something else. For now, I am going to take the next two weeks to do nothing, just sit at someone else's desk and do nothing. My desk, phone, and computer got taken away.

One of the doctors I work(ed) for is leaving to go to The Toledo Hospital, so he wants me to go with him. I had plans of going with him even before any of this happened. The only problem is, he doesn't do the hiring, but I'm hoping with his good word, I'll be in. Another problem, he may not be starting until January 1st, so I'm not sure if they'll let me start before him. If not, then I think I am going to try to collect unemployment! Why not make UT pay for me to sit at home and do nothing, it's their fault they have a bad department chair. He is a great surgeon but an idiot as an administrator. His excuse-- he wants to get new blood up here!!! New blood- mine has only been here since August!!! How much newer can you get?? Oh, I forgot the best part, my replacement filled vending machines prior to this!!!

On a happier note, I went to see Sway perform at the Blind Pig last night in Ann Arbor. For those of you who don't know who Sway is, it is the band that Tim and Pat Stolkey and Dan Reott started after High School. They were VERY good, it's not my type of music, but I still enjoyed the performance. Keith Albright was also there in the audience, it was nice seeing all of them again!

Dumb ass me forgot to bring her ID all the way up to Ann Arbor, so we figured no big deal, it's 18 and over, so I can just get in as a minor. Boy, were we wrong!! It's a good thing we knew the band. Pat went over to get the manager, and he said I could get in as a minor. I got big huge black M's written on my hands, I had to pay $8, (but I did get a free non-alcoholic beverage!), and I was not allowed to leave the building for ANY reason. It's a good thing the people in Ann Arbor have a GREAT football team, or I would boycott Ann Arbor forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But, it was still a good time, even though I had to listen to alternative type music super sober!!

If you are interested in hearing Sway's music, their website is getswayedmusic.com, I highly recommend them, they were great, and not bad to look at either!!

I hope everyone is having a better week at work than I am!
