Change of luck at work

Given the boss' recent departure and the departure of a few others, our status thing had been stuffing up and I noticed Hayley had been assigned to another floor. At first I thought this was just a stuff up, but then on Monday it was still the same. I pretended to go to the kitchen for something and check things out. I noticed her desk was completely empty. Even her computer was gone!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The hot para has gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One door had closed for me. Sure, there were other doors, but it's never a good feeling to know a door has been closed.

Yesterday Alanna pulled me into her room to have a chat about the new boss. I thought it was a bit late since she started on Monday, but whatever. She started having a bit of a spiel about how much shit this boss gave her when she started, so she really hates her. I reckon she dropped the F-bomb at least three times. I just sat there and listened. She went on and on, and eve admitted that it was gossip.

I rarely see Alanna like this, but kinda liked it cause it felt like I was close to her.

I was preparing for my hearing yesterday, and found out that the person who assessed the matter had fucked up. I mean, really fucked up. It was Twish's friend, and I started hating her for it, moreso because somehow someone that incompetent had gotten a permanent job. WTF.

I had to write a minute and so stayed back until 7:30pm doing that. Wendy A basically told me to go home before she left, and then this morning said she noticed what time I had left and said it was too late. She also said that my room was too far from Alanna's, so she has decided to move me.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!

She was going to switch me and Wendy F. I wanted to protest by saying my knee actually needed the daily walks to Alanna's room, but then wisdom told me to shut the hell up.

I was a bit upset, because I absolutely adore my room, but then thought about it: am I losing my job? Am I getting less money? Then shut the hell up. Would Kobe or James Bond care? No. Then neither should you.

So I notched up my 13th matter today, and I'm even more proud because none of them are ones I sent back which will eventually come back to me and hence reduce my numbers. Alanna seemed very relieved that she wouldn't be burdened with any work for the rest of the month. I was just glad I got 13. I wonder who is happier when I get 13.

I'm also keeping an eye out to see who wants to one up me. Should I even care? I'm just sure that no one can be as consistent as I am.

I am feeling a bit competitive, seeing now that Katie and Yoshi appear to be coming into work earlier than usual, perhaps to try to appease the new boss. But I have noticed that now their protection is gone: Imad is gone, and if the old boss was any protection, he's gone now too. Fair game I suppose.

I went out at lunch to look for some novel candy to buy, and so I was in the Asian grocery store near my office and heard a song that the Naby place would play sometimes.

Damnit, why is everything reminding me of Naby???

I'm really, really starting to miss her.

In terms of my knee, I have been rehabbing twice a day since Monday. On Monday I was so eager to see that hot girl, I was smiling all the way from the escalator to the gym, only to find out she wasn't there. On Tuesday night because I worked late, I decided to go straight from work to the gay gym and so did my stuff there.

I didn't see her at the gym tonight either, so I was thinking maybe tomorrow night I could go to the one in Bra.

I'm now able to press my calve into the wall slightly from the first rep of the first set, although with some difficulty and pain. The first set of pressing my knee down is always the hardest and makes me feel like there hasn't been any improvement, but by the second set it loosens up and feels as good as the good knee.

Tonight, coming home, I also realised that I took two steps at a time - easy. Not sure how good or bad that is for the knee, but I kinda just did it instinctively.

I still actually can't bend my knee very far back, but I'm satisfied that that will come with time.
