no fun in the cube

[chrissigrl]

I have to make a bunch of calls to different organizations to tell them that we aren't going to consider their applications for funding. Sending a letter is one thing, but having to tell a person a definative "NO.", and then trying to thwart their attempts to get me [who has NO sway with the funds whatsoever] to change my mind about the application. I don't like it.

also, nobody here invites me to go to lunch with them. blatantly. the whole group will go together, and leave me here all alone. All I get is a call over the shoulder, "We'll be back in like an hour,". They don't even ask if I would like something. It's like, "HEY we know you're a temp, you're NOT in the cool kids club!" I KNOW i'm not in the club, guys. I just wish it wasn't so blatant.

I wish you were in OUR secret lunch bunch! But soon I will be part of that no more...

They are mean, and I hate them. They are also stupid, if they do not realize how much fun you are.

Maybe they're just jealous!

Also, hello, what's this? Did both you AND Marianne all of a sudden get Paid Accounts? What up, money bags? Now I'm part of the POOR and FREE club.

cha-CHING

I know, I know... I am a victim of Peer Pressure. Everyone was doing it, I was having a crappy day, I wanted to buy myself a present, and didn't feel like waiting for Ebay or Amazon. I needed Instant GRATIFICATION, baby!

This is so funny to me, because I can totally hear you saying "What up, Money bags?!", the next time I see you, and that makes me laugh.

Noooo! I didn't think of that!

Okay. It's now final. You aren't allowed to take the new job. As a representative of the Super Secret Lunch Bunch I dis-allow it.

i feel your pain...only we're not even allowed to go to lunch with anyone from our own group cuz it will "slow down the process." next time when they all come back be like "wow brad pitt was just here, sorry each and every last one of you missed it. oh and by the way we totally banged."
