Today was my day to say “Hey, I am doing well. Do I get to move up in the world?”
My career review went well. I have no desire to work though so I am sort of trying to jump start my brain to solve these problems. My brain wants to avoid them though so that is why I am writing this now. “Get back to work brain or I will stab you with a Q-Tip!”
Lady C is treating me with some respect now. I feel like she is coming around to the way I think and I am trying to change the way I act around people. Learning to be a leader is a lot harder than it looks. I am still a noob leader at best. My methods of leadership are “Do as I say not as I do” which does not fly. But I am trying to show these people that I am here and I am….here…to stay. Perhaps on pay day I’ll buy a case of beer. I will not being driving after the 23rd so life will be boring. I wish I could drive every day.
I digress. My review came and went fast. I have completed all my tasks that where set out for me so I don’t have any more tasks to do…. Wait a tick… if I finish my tasks don’t I get to move up in rank… or at least get new tasks. I did ask for more money, I really need it now. I am broker than I would like to think. I think the corporate staff meeting will announce the increases corporately. ‘J’ was saying something about 10%. Which is a whopping 4k in my pocket. Which is good. However I would like to be making the same as other people in my field. And that’s closer to 54-56k a year for a person doing what I am doing with only 1-2 years exp. I also did not get to negotiate my contract when I started so I did not get the same rights that everyone else did. I am pretty sure Lady C makes more than me by at least 10%. The fact I trained her sort of makes me wary.
Otherwise it’s good for another year and I am going to get booked into some courses. ASHRAE , Revit MEP, safety and first aid etc. I did ask for more opportunity and support to develop my design and knowledge base in mechanical. I admire ‘AJ’ and ‘AJ’ and what they have done with their skills and time. I would like to progress such as they have.
Most of all I want to earn my way into this honour roll of this company. I love this job and I intend to do what’s best for the company and me. Which means… sorry ladies, I cannot date you because I work with you. However I am willing to add you to the ranks of my Herim so that you may serve me in this life and the next. /snicker

First of all, it's harem.
Second of all, NO.
Third of all, seriously... no. LOL
Come on Fleeting... all you need to do is kill of the rest and it will all be good. Right? RIGHT?
Or at least that's what I'm always told. On second thought maybe not. No sounds like a good plan.
It's tempting, sometimes, let me tell you.
