Yesterday kind of went really fast at the office. I was busy helping Anita do Rotas and Trish to write Queries for consultants. Today is a Trish Free Day. Its her 9 Year old boys Birthday and so she's gotten the whole day off. That leaves me to find the self motivation to drag myself into London and find the will to get through another day in the world of recruitment.
Yesterday I was asked by our boss why so many (5 now) have left the project. It was like they simply dont have a clue as to how unhappy people are. The Powers that be seem to be completley blind as to their ability to make people unhappy. Its very difficult turf being asked what can be done to make people happy when you are far from Happy yourself.
They seemed obvlivious to the fact that the day they cut our Saturday and Sundays work at 2 days notice and that they refused to pay us any cancellation fee as per the contract. They insisted that 7 days cancellation meant they had to give 7 days to cancell our entire contract and not in regards to any actual days work. That was just the begining. With half the team around the country at different sites supporting clients we are all a mish mash of feelings of dispondance.
I have promised to try and lift spirits but without Trish at the office today I am not sure I even want to go in. I have just remembered exactly how much I dont enjoy working in the West End. Just another pointer as to what is making people unhappy. Working until 1730. Well clearly they dont realise that Training usually ends by 1630. And while it may sound like I am just having a winge, its all of these little pointers adding up and making the tension worse and worse.
So as I pull myself together to get dressed and make my way in I am begining to wonder what joys the day has in hold. I have to be positive, think happy thoughts, put on my ipod and prepare to brace the nasty journey into town.
Come back soon Trish!
