Observations from the Cube

7-22-15

Trusty, “You’re numbers are very good.”

Me, “I know.”

Trusty, “I am having a hard time coming up with goals for you.”

And you want me to do what with this? Be worse at my job? Sheesh. 

After emailing this morning requesting information on the issues of the alarm panel and my key not working, facilities emailed me back, ccing the HR person I had emailed originally.

“As for the front entrance door lock not opening for you, not sure what that’s about.  I’ve tested it a bunch of times in the past and not once did it stick. If I had to guess it could be that the metal door frame shrinks at night when it’s cold. Therefore making it difficult for you to turn the lock when you get in as early as you do.”

Yeah, cause that’s likely with temperatures being in at least the 70’s, even at 4:30 in the morning.

And to add insult to injury, facilities opted to email me back separately asking me not to include HR in these issues and to use their Sys-Aid program to report issues. Never you mind that I had already done this with unsatisfactory results and I wanted to make sure HR understood what was going on. Never trust an employee who asks you (without ccing HR) to not include HR on future issues.

I am hopeful my remaining hour and change fly by without further incident.
