No, seriously, to steal a turn of phrase from my father my workplace is as disorganized as a monkey fucking a football. Seriously. It is. When we finished our two week stint on 8-5 last week they told us we would stay 8-5 permanently. Then after a hasty phone call to the manager we were assured we would be 4-1 again for good. Last night they told us that come Monday we would be on 8-5 again for good! I'm totally okay with doing that but the lack of organization involved in all of it is appalling. Meanwhile, I'm supposedly going to be talked to either today or tomorrow about my moving to a permanent position so my schedule come next week may not be 8-5 at all but something completely different. Of course, I'll believe it about my permanent position when I see it since I've had two different managers telling me two different things for the last two weeks and neither will get back with me about it or give me a straight answer when asked.
Last night also saw a debacle in which all my team's supervisors left after two hours and we were left with a project we had no idea how to even start that ultimately caused us all to go to lunch an hour late. And then I had to stay over half an hour at the end of the night because a project they could have had us do any time in the last week suddenly had to be done right now.
It probably sounds like I don't like my job, but really my complaints here are very whimsical. I'm enjoying doing what I'm told and shaking my head in silence at all the completely boneheaded decisions that are made, then reversed, then reversed again. How did this company get this big again? I'll tell you this much, if they were to ever actually achieve a level of organization that matches their level of success the world will be truly fucked.
