i'm training "the new guy" (TNG) to work my desk; no small feat. my current job is one of "high
exposure", which means: if things get fucked up, the firm could lose millions of dollars (not including legal fees). you really have to know what you're doing or at the very least ask alot of questions to make sure you're not doing something wrong. TNG could really care less.he doesn't take notes.
he doesn't seem to pay attention.
he just wants to know when lunch is.
oh and when he types, he uses two fingers.
yup.
two.
fingers.
i want him trained as quickly and efficiently as possible so i can move on (and, most importantly, away from Dingbat). the real problem is, i've got no patience to sit here and walk somebody through my job. i just want to get it done as quick as possible and browse people's blogs. but that's not an option.
i'm here at the ass-crack of dawn, as usual, to get a jump on my work. i told TNG that you really have to get here before 8 if you want to get everything done in a timely fashion. his response: i'll see you about 8:30 tomorrow.
this is gonna be a long week.

it's easy everyone wants to be a movie star or a porn star they don't want to work anymore xxx
It's rare that people want to do a good job. We happen to surround ourselves with people who all fit in that category. I have found that not everyone does, and it frustrates the hell out of me. You can't teach a person to WANT to do a job well. All you can do is train TNG as much as you possibly can. He needs to do the rest.
