So what's been going on in my life for the past three weeks you ask??! A LOT. In the past 3 weeks I've started a new job as a payroll and staffing coordinator for a big company, met a boy, and discovered some very interesting stuff about myself along the way lol.
I like my job most days... However, lately, it's been a real bitch. Dealing with people (especially when it concerns money/working) will really test your patience. I always try to act very professional but I'm human. I have been telling clients and workers just how it is and not holding back. I no longer care if people think I'm a total bitch or a bowl of sunshine. Either way I'm still the boss of the mulah$, so what I say goes. I also took my anger out on my desk phone at work while speaking to a rude lady who wanted an interview.
Let's just say the receiver fell on the transmitter repeatedly, and hard. Yeah, the company is ordering me a new one. What has made my job so much more stressful is this new huge account we just got that has a lot of workers whom work many positions with different payrates (i.e. balancing the account and its checkbook is a total nightmare on elm street). I'm just ready for their contract to run out with us, or for them to finish this effing project. Which ever comes first, I don't really care anymore.
Moving on to the new guy I met. I met him online, which I know some people might consider that to be a little ehh way of meeting people. Here's the thing though, between juggling work, family, friends, and my volunteer obligations, I never have time to go out and mingle. So how else do you expect a busy gal to find a guy in this world?
I figured I might as well take advantage of the Internet like everyone else does. He's 33, has dreads (yumm), intelligent, and is really involved in politics. There's only one catch though, and I know I'm gonna catch hell from my readers about this in my inbox lol; he's a conservative and a Republican. Yes, you read right, I'm seeing a Republican.
He's a financial advisor who makes over $80,000 a year. He's a Republican because of how he feels that money should be spent, but his feelings on pretty much all other issues lean more towards Democratic. Anyhow, I'm definitely getting a crash course in how to see a person as person separate from their political views.
He's funny, intelligent, nerdy, sweet and classy. I love all those things about him. We have fun together and a great time talking (as long as it's not about the Stimulus Package lol). I think subconsciously I might have picked him out because he is a Republican. He holds a different view from me. I like when a guy isn't afraid to challenge what I say.
I want a person with the same amount of conviction and spice that I have ya know. But, I also want a guy who thinks that everything about me is perfect, even the traits that other people may find annoying or dislike. Something like Orianthi's song According To You. I just want my cake and want to eat it too. That's not too much to ask when it comes to a relationship, is it??
