Still here....

....just.

It's been an interesting couple of months. First things first - the company is holding on, barely, but it's not healthy. People are leaving (or being pushed) non-stop - most interstate offices are down to 2 people, with my office down to about 10 (on a good day, some people just don't bother showing up). There's projects in the pipelines that will apparently save the company ("Trust me" is the new catch cry), but we can all see the writing on the wall.

IT, in the meantime, is suffering. With the on-going effort to redirect money so employees can actually get paid (it's a struggle every fortnight), other services get the "We'll pay you, eventually" line. This, unfortunately, means PonyGirl, being an outside contractor, is waiting and waiting for money that has been owed for months. It all came to a head about a month ago with PonyGirl essentially quitting (my post in September was going to about that), but somehow the BigBoss had managed to pull money out of nowhere and keep PonyGirl on. iOrgasm has been on the verge of complete meltdowns more than once.

I've still got a job, but I've been told to update my resume and look for other work. I don't think it gets much clearer than that.

I'll continue to update the blog with horror stories (I had one tonight, which inspired me to get off my ass and update the blog), but it looks like the end might be sooner, rather than later.

And then it'll start all over again at another job. Hell is eternal ;)


P.S. Farewell, MidgetGirl! One of the many who have suffered from the company shrinking, but probably the least annoying user in the company (ok, maybe a little annoying, but she gave me a paper notebook with 5"1/4' floppy covers, she can't be that bad).
