Nov. 20th, 2002 01:08 pmFlugh. It's another one of those days. I'm in a good mood, but I feel like I'm sprinting around like a madman. I've gotten exactly one thing done all week that I needed to for my projects. The rest of the time has been spent dealing with departmental stuff like tracking down missing checks in accounting, finding indexers and proofreaders, and dog knows what else. That's the half of my job that can be sort of a drag--the departmental editorial assistant half. The reprints editor gig is almost always cool. The other part would actually be OK and break up the day a bit, but the two halves of my job should really be two separate jobs. In fact, they used to BE two separate jobs. I wonder if I should hold out for more money? HAHAHA. right.
But I shouldn't complain. I do enjoy this job, and I won't be doing assistant-type stuff forever. It could be a lot worse--I could have a shitty job, like flipping burgers with a tie on. :)
So what's the shittiest job you've ever had? I'll post about mine later on; I have to decide which one takes top honors!
