So I just got home from my really retarted day out shaking hands with my boss. It was just as stupid and a waste of time as I thought it would be. Even though I found out I was getting a 10% raise, it was still dumb. I got my review over lunch at Panera (I lovooooove Panera and my boss knows that). I exceeded expectations in all categories, according to him, but still had room for improvement, of course. I'm still mad at him. He had my expense check overnighted to me because of the big deal I made about not getting my bonus TWICE and them having so much of my money in expense reports. He promised me the bonus would be on my next check. I believe him, but it sucks that it was an entire month late. I've never gotten a 10% raise before. I know I deserve it, and that raise puts my pay kinda close to what I should be making. He also outlined plans to put another incentive plan in place-which I think is kinda dumb because he is paying me twice for doing something-but, whatever.

My old boss sent me an e-mail back yesterday and said it was nice to hear from me and that he would look at the workload in my area, and overall, and see if there is enough work to bring me back on. I really loved the structure of my old company and I really love the freedom I have right now. It will be a VERY difficult decision (pay being equal) which way I would go. The last job was the only one I left where I actually creid writing my resignation and cried after I said goodbye to everyone. I just don't cry. I think my boss is trying to make things right, but these STUPID meetings really get on my nerves, too. It's such a waste. None of our clients could get support today because the two senior people were out shaking hands.

Oh well. I'm excited about all the extra money coming my way, though. I'll finally be able to get those IRA's funded.
