Work -- just the sound of the word makes our flesh ache. This
is exactly the reason why What Is Work? was created; to ease the pain and
rub BenGay on our aching wrists.
<br><br>
So, hey, you can reserve your "sick" call-ins for <i>better</i>
reasons. Entertain yourself here. Post pictures, stories, quotes, jokes, and anything else
you'd like to share with others as bored at work as you are.
<br><br>
The application can be found <a href="http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=what_is_work">here</a>.

[19 Aug 2007|01:24pm] |
ive found a way to make easy money online. you sign up and fill out surveys and you can make up to a dollar for each one. also the best part is you make money in referrals. then, you make money from their referrals. this is the link.

Let's see if anyone at all gives a damn about this community anymore. Everyone should reply with how they would finish this statement:
What is work? Work is _____________ .

i'm excited because after a month of unemployement (and plenty of overdue bills), i finally have a job again. at my previous job i was constantly with the kids (assistant kindergarten teacher), so i had no time to be on a computer really. but now!!! as receptionist i have some "free" time when the phones aren't ringing off the wall. i guess WHAT IS WORK will hear from me now. hmm... is anyone still alive? lol
i think everyone should make a post about their current work situation. where are you now? has anythiing changed? do you miss our lovely community being alive?! :) lets bring it back! i miss it.
hope everyone's doing good and not utterly bored at their workplace. :P xoxo.

| Assistance for displaced students |
[03 Sep 2005|09:53pm] |
WikiNews has a page listing schools around the country offering enrollment to students displaced because of the hurricane.
I ask you to take the time to look at the list and if your school or alma mater is not listed check out your school's website to see if they are offering to do anything. If they are, please take the time to edit the list and add your school. I added NYU a few hours ago.

Are there any people in your office who make totally annoying analogies and metaphors when they explain things to coworkers? There's a guy in my office who literally talks to people like they're 15 and uses the dumbest metaphors, like comparing different advertisers to different kinds of wine (he did that this morning and I just cracked up in my cubicle).
Why do people do this? Do they think they sound smarter or something?
I'd be excited to hear any terrible analogies or metaphors you can remember...

so i scored not one, but two jobs in one day! i need to celebrate this weekend. :o)
job #1
on monday, i was interviewed by the principal of st. stephen's day school. she was nice and straight forward about what she was looking for and what her concerns were. then, she had the two kindergarden teachers "interview" me as well. she stepped out of the office and left us chatting for a while. the teachers were really nice and i think they liked me. ^_^ SO, i got a call on tuesday that the principal wanted to see me again on friday. friday morning comes along and i go to the school. i was offered the job and i already signed the contract and everything. i start august 8th as assistant teacher!!! i'm so excited!!! i get to work with kids in a nice, private school setting in coconut grove. weeeeeeeeeeee!!
job #2
on wednesday, i went into the citibank florida headquarters for an interview in the human resources department. i was basically interviewed twice. different people, same questions lol. i'm not sure why they did that... but i was there for about 2 LONG hours. they had me fill out some papers and wait around for a while. it was finally over and i left feeling somewhat confident. i think i was ready to answer all their questions and they seemed to like my answers, so yeah. i got a call friday afternoon from them offering me the position as temporary human resources(hr) assistant. of course i accepted. :o) i was given two numbers to call 1)to get fingerprinted and 2)to take a drug test. depending on how quickly i get all that done, i could start working as early as mid-week next week. AWESOME!
so, in conclusion... i kicked ass at my interviews and they liked meeeee! and i will now be employed! AMEN! i'll have money to pay off all my bills and help out at my house and get some new outfits and those new balance sneakers i've been wanting, hehe. woohoo!

| Babies in the office. |
[06 Jun 2005|03:44pm] |
|
So is there a proper etiquette for when coworkers on maternity leave bring their newborns into the office? My coworker brought hers in today and I could not bring myself to stand with the other ladies and coo. I can only say "He's really fucking cute" so many times, and can only giggle so much when the thing farts. Yes, it's a beautiful baby. Yes, I'm happy for her. But really, do I seem disinterested if I don't act like I've never seen a newborn baby before and talk about how neat breast feeding is?

i was called today [yesterday, technically]... and i have an interview set up for this coming thursday at 1:30pm to work as a teacher assistant at a private school (pre-k through 6th grade).
i've been unemployed for the past 4 months or so and need this job badly. not only would i be working with kids (which i'm looking forward to), but it's good pay for a college student like myself. I NEED YOU ALL TO WISH ME LUCK! ;) or pray or something. whatever it is you do... do it for your moderator (one of the 3 anyway). pleeease! hehe
alrighty, i think that's all for now. i just needed to put that out there. and if you know of any openings in south florida/miami, keep me informed. THANK YOUUUU!

| True Tales of Customer Service... |
[27 May 2005|03:40pm] |
|
I've been posting these to my own LJ for a while now, and it dawned on me today that they would be perfect for the community. So without further deal, I present...
True Tales of Customer Service!
I actually had to put this note on a customers acct. This is it, word for word:
Cust asking if service connected yet. Advised she had not yet paid deposit. Cust said "Yeah I know". Advised power would not be on until deposit paid. Cust said "yeah I know". Advised customer that perhaps i am not understanding, if she knows she hasn't paid, and she knows it won't be on until she does, why is she asking if its on? Cust hung up on me.
And people wonder why I drink...
