I’d love to know when I’ll be getting paid for doing three people’s jobs — that being my own, plus my coworker’s who runs the printers with me, and that of our graphic designer, who, it’s apparently been decided, I get to stand in for whenever he’s out.

I can’t really gripe at our design guy being out since he’s down with a bad flu, but the other girl…it just seems like the moment anything starts “going around” she…

Guess who got a $1/hour raise yesterday! Nono, go ahead, I’ll wait *plays Jeopardy music* January was apparently our best month on record, so I’m not incredibly surprised that the raise came now. I’ve been here for almost a year and a half, and other than the occasional nerve-wrecking period, it’s been fantastic. Hopefully the rest of this year is great too.

They supposedly sprayed a couple weeks ago, and I’ve put out bait, but (lovely little bug carcasses notwithstanding) they seem reluctant to let up.…

Ugh. TinyMCE, the rich text editing thing for typing up entries isn’t showing in Firefox. The code is the same as it shows in MSIE, but no text box. It has worked on Netscape & MSIE at work, and in Firefox on other computers. Poo. All kindsa little kinks to work out, apparently.
