Porcupine, Beware
My new line #manager was keen to show her teeth this week. On Wednesday I had a 1-to-1 with her. The language of #domination she used to me, almost a decade her senior, rattled my quills, and I have let her know this the last few days. The head of my form
WAH! On Top of WAH!
WAH! WAH!! No. That's not my imitation of a crying baby. :) For the past few weeks my major work-at-home (WAH) project has been republishing content and updating links at my various blogs, especially incorrect affiliate links that
Head, Meet Wall
As expected, I found out this afternoon which option Senior Consultant prefers. He'd rather have an extra piece of paper to be recycled than have a letter go out that he hasn't totally agreed with. *Sigh*. And, the answer to the question du jour is 'How
Halo Strangulation Ahoy?
My secretarial colleague came to see me earlier, and informed me that not only was our newest teamie off sick (as a hospital patient, no less) for the forseeable, but our other secretary had phoned in sick this morning. I immediately offered my services, k
Three Out of Five Aint Bad
With apologies to Meatloaf for rearranging his song title: https://youtu.be/k5hWWe-ts2s, that has been my week. On Monday, Tuesday and Friday (today) I was up on Level 4 covering for various absent secretaries. I'm sure the bosses were taking note, becaus
The Magic Roundabout
The Magic Roundabout is, quite obviously to us Brits, a 70s children's TV show. It is also the slang term we use at my workplace to describe people working in different offices at different times of the week, month or year. Rotation is a fact of life wit
Job Goals/Updates and Where I am on it
Hi guys, Yesterday was very busy, but today I have off and tomorrow. So, yesterday I was trying to get help from one of the case managers in this program I'm in to help me answer specific questions through another job resource that works w
On Juggling, Working 5 to 9s and Portfolio Careers
I guess we're all familiar with the standard trope of the busy housewife-and-mother juggling keeping house with family caring duties. Running round madly, whirling from here to there like the hammer-thrower in the picture. Two further options on this choi
Another Jason Statham Post...
Good day PPers! Another #JasonStatham post from me. Well, it isn't like I write a lot about the guy but you get the drift. Wrote about having a Jason Statham movie fest after going through a zombie movie marathon . Jason Statham is a God!!

Party like it's 1999... over oops out of time
I've been #commenting plenty but not written much here lately. I have to admit I have been concentrating on #dayjob work and my #blog these past few days. Dayjob work is presently busy, but for a change, not with an audit. The external auditors fed back
And Breathe
It's been a bit all out this week so far. With Mr C and the guys arriving home late on Sunday night, I was late to bed and later in to #work on Monday too. #Dayjob is busy as ever and the #study day I'm administrating is taking on its own life now. Just

Heroes of Change Organization Incorporated, voluntary assistance to the needy
Right, so here's a new thing. An #organization which is so new to the online world that it doesn't have a website yet. Even the logo file I was sent won't download. I'll add it if I solve the issue but until then, I'm using a placeholder image from Pixabay
Update on my job
Shortly after my last post, I received a letter stating that I had a contract with my job (at the USPS). Needless to say, I was overjoyed! Since it was for the rest of the year, I figured that I would be working for them for at least that long. Howe
Personal Development, Character Study and Biography
Whether delving into the #Bible and/or researching the #history of #mankind from non-secular sources and records, for my own personal development, a character study always proves to be invaluable. For example, my explorations have led me here. &
New Chapter is unfolding
Good day my dear personapaper friends! It's been like 3 days and 6 hours since my last post because I was too busy doing some #school stuffs before our semester ends. Or Shall I say before my last school year ends. I'm so excited to be graduating in #colle

World Poetry: Some Hebrew Poetry form the Bronze and Iron Ages
As I mentioned in my earlier post on World Poetry, this book presents poetry chronology, further divided by culture. The first division is poets of Bronze and Iron Ages, which the book dates from 2200-250 BCE. That’s long period of time. The edi

I am a fulltime college librarian and a part time literature professor in one institution. And i am earning with that two jobs. But not that enough so i decided to look for more. I am also now a project based research consultant. Although i am earning wit

Were they talking about me?!?
As some of you know, my job was supposed to end today. At least this is what I was told by my supervisor last week anyway. (Yep, the same one that doesn't like me due to me "going over his head".) When I went into work last night, I felt kind of lost, see
Life At Work
I can say that I am a very #flexible #person because I can easily adjust #myself to any situation at #work, and today I prove to myself that I can face challenges like facing a difficult people like, our leader at work. Though she is not a superior or th
Gimme A Break Already, Life!!!
This weekend sees the new #computer system rollout at work. So my audit-based #dayjob has decreed that next weekend should be the accreditation #deadline. All of my line managers are hopping mad about this, unless they have decided that half term week is
Do You Spend Time to Search Job Listings?
While you can take the relaxed approach and sip on a cup of coffee while you scroll through your listings from your blog subscription, the more aggressive way to do it would be to use this as a jumping off point to do your own searching. Freelancers who pu
Woman Dies While Resting In Between Jobs
It is sad to see death and killings happening. But it is sadder to read about how a person died because of resting. Maria Fernandes was a #hardworking woman from New Jersey from who died while she was in her car taking nap or rest between shifts. It

TORN BETWEEN TWO LOVES
I've been offered to apply for my #dreamjob since they will be opening positions late this year. Some of their employees found work outside the country and some will be retiring soon. So they're looking for new personnel to train to fill up the vacant posi
