It’s finally starting to get nice outside. Today it was 74 degrees and the forecast tomorrow is similar. Unfortunately, I haven’t had much chance to enjoy it so far. Leaving work at 6:00 pm tonight seemed like a gift, but when working in the office for ten hours feels like going home early, there’s a problem. Most of the time I’ve been staying much later.
You see, I work with two other people in our tiny department, so the three of us share a manager. My two co-workers both quit in the last few days, due, for the most part, to the manager. They gave their two weeks’ notice and have no interest or desire to get work done, even though they know they’re making things harder on me.
I won’t talk much more about work, but it’s going to be an interesting two weeks. Luckilly, I’ll be leaving for California next Friday for a week of relaxation and family time in Joshua Tree. Apparently there’s a Swedish massage waiting for me — one of those professional ones. It’s the perfect prescription for the stress in my life right now.
I’ll come home in time for Passover with the other side of the family.
