The weekly meeting was this morning, I've been going to them since I started 'working' here last May and the only thing that has ever concerned me was when we were told that the department was getting an all singing all dancing photocopier/printer/scanner and it turns out that I'll still be using the old one so even that was just a passing interest. As I'm temping here all the 'major changes' and 'trial runs' have meant nothing as what I do is uneffected. But I go so that I feel part of hte team and to show an interest. Showing an interest is becoming more and more difficult so I've started to take a notepad and noting down all the stupid office jargon that's said and the frequency of its use.
Todays meeting lasted 40 minutes and the term "going forward" was used 15 times-that's nearly once every two minutes. It was used by the Manager, phones supervisor, line manager and a few colleages. There was a stage where there was an uncomfortable silence broken soley by these words, I nearly fell off my chair laughing. I really don't know how I heald it together.
Well I think it's time that I 'moved forward' I need a real job, I'm fed up temping. I want the benefits that come with the commitment, not just the commitment of being afraid there will be no job at the end of next week. I've said it's about time I grew up and got some adult responsibilty, and I have to start with a proper job with real prospects. So as the 'system' that's been the talk of these pointless meetings for so long has crashed (again) I'm going to spend the day searching Reed employment and jazzing up my cv.
I've really got to get out of here!
