Still a little way to go!

I worked last night.  The temperature dropped down to 25 and the windchill was at 13.  Two of the people that I work directly for do not have the same personality as me and it causes me to get pissed.  One of them is just not as good as the last person I worked for.  The last person, would try to minimize your "running around" time and could make your job much easier.  The new one freaks out on problems and causes you to chase a bunch of shit that doesn't need chasing. 

The other person is hard to explain.  It's almost like he has the "I'm the boss now" mentality, but I know he doesn't.  He likes to micro manage and goes way overboard on some of his actions.  He thinks because he is doing something, you need to be right there by his side.  He doesn't understand that I still have many other tasks to take care of.

Working for this company is like being in prison (I could only imagine).  Even your nightly tasks are not called "tasks for the night" or "nightly work list" but instead called "orders."  This place still runs on a 1950's mentality.

I do let it get to me, and that's why I say I still have a little way to go.  It's hard!  I still have not found a way to not let my job bother me.  How do the other people not let it bother them so much?  Are they just faking their "contentness?"  I always say I'm not going to let it get to me, but something always seems to happen to cause me to get flat pissed off.  I found out earlier today that the sections that I work in are having major problems right now, so when I go in tonight, it is going to be horrible.  But at least this will be another opportunity to try and learn how to handle my emotions better.

Anyway, this was a pretty boring post, but I had to let me thoughts out.  My girlfriend also worked last night and she came over shortly after getting off.  I woke up before her and couldn't stop staring at her sleeping.  She is so beautiful!  I have to say she is helping me become a better person and she doesn't even know it!
