it's tuesday

22 04 2008
Can I just say that being greeted with this upon arrival at work on payroll processing day--the day when I'm more or less in charge--is not a good thing?

Tuesday morning greeting

(Shirley is the boss--my supervisor and our interim manager while we look for one to replace the much-loved manager who just left a week and a half ago.)

While many of the knitters in Portland will be out enjoying Stephanie Pearl-McPhee's talk/book signing, I'll still be here at work...making sure around 40,000 people get their paychecks on Friday. (Including me!) Looks like I might get to go home around 7:30 or 8:00. Did I mention that I got here at 6:45 am?

Eh, the long day doesn't concern me. It's actually a normal part of my schedule; a long Tuesday every other week during payroll processing. (My co-hort, Linda, gets to do the long day every other Monday, and she ended up being here really late last night--which relates to the note waiting for me this morning.) I am bummed, though, that I'm missing the Yarn Harlot. AGAIN. Last year I was out of town when she was here. Sigh. Maybe she'll come back again next year?
