Ignorance is Bliss: back to normal
http://zeebc.blogspot.com/2011/06/back-to-normal.html
Saturday, June 04, 2011. Yep, I have not felt this good in years. Screw the last job, I hated it in the first six months and told everyone who asked. Sure it got better, and I being super positive believed it was okay. Nope Nope. My employees were fantastic and totally made my job palatable. And some of the corporate changes made my life manageable. My latest boss was great and I really enjoyed quite a few of the people who I saw every day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Ignorance is Bliss: gimp life
http://zeebc.blogspot.com/2010/11/gimp-life.html
Thursday, November 04, 2010. Here I am, two and a half weeks on crutches after my surgery. The cutting went well, and the incision went even better. I lucked out with a resident who decided to use internal stitches which equals almost no scar on my knee at all. Woot! First week after the cut it was painful. But there are drugs for that, so I took my pills and stayed home from work. Job-wise it all was fine. I have the paid time off available and my staff kicks ass. So no harm no foul. What do you need?

Ignorance is Bliss: four months already?
http://zeebc.blogspot.com/2011/10/four-months-already.html
Monday, October 03, 2011. This morning the weather outside felt like fall. And all I could think was "Already? Of course I then realized that my summer was consumed by my new job. No fault but mine, I squandered all that glorious after work sunlight by working late. Work is still crazy. Too much work for just me. The good news is I'm now able to know what I can push back on, as in defer to others, and what just falls at the bottom of the priority list. Which are HUGE wins. Where do people go, Vail? I've ...

Ignorance is Bliss: under pressure
http://zeebc.blogspot.com/2010/12/under-pressure.html
Sunday, December 05, 2010. It has been a stressful couple of weeks. Two and a half weeks ago my boss walked into my office and let me know his job had been eliminated. Likewise for the whole department. All of his direct reports are spread out across the company. Even the group that has the exact same function of mine is reporting to an entirely different area than I am. And when I heard that I asked that my employees get a raise. C'mon, right? As much as my group has done to help the company it is very ...

Ignorance is Bliss: 20 years
http://zeebc.blogspot.com/2010/08/20-years.html
Monday, August 09, 2010. It is the stuff of legend. Some dread its arrival, others look forward to the day with glee. Books, movies, plays.all written about this iconic meeting. It is a pinnacle event, the one great test of time the majority of Americans look upon. The high school reunion. Frankly I don't recall getting any notice of my 10 year reunion. But with the creation of facebook there has been no way to avoid the repeated reminders that my 20 year anniversary approaches. Overall my group of frien...

Ignorance is Bliss: stupid 10 year anniversary
http://zeebc.blogspot.com/2011/09/stupid-10-year-anniversary.html
Saturday, September 10, 2011. Stupid 10 year anniversary. Every year I dread the beginning of September. I moved here in October of 2000, and landed a 9-5 gig in the west village with office windows that faced the Statue of Liberty. And the World Trade Center. I was a little bit late to work. As per normal. I tended to work long hours, so if I arrived to work in the west village after nine by a few minutes I never had it held against me. So I had time. I stopped at my local deli for coffee and a muff...

Ignorance is Bliss: new job!!
http://zeebc.blogspot.com/2011/05/new-job.html
Wednesday, May 18, 2011. Well I totally can't say nothing new is going on now. I received an offer to work at Amazon.com and I have accepted it! Not only is it EXCELLENT money, but I still get to walk to work (bonus), the company is famous for job advancement/change every two years (extra bonus), and it seems to be staffed with people who I will really enjoy working with (super duper bonus if true)! But I dread the turnout. It will be haphazard and possibly only semi-fun. Worst of all, I have a s...If I ...

Monkey Business: July 2014
http://dargantwins.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 29, 2014. My kids are all getting to be good swimmers. In my book that pretty much means that no one holds their nose when they jump in, which puts them ahead of me. Links to this post. Tuesday, July 8, 2014. There is something about Drew when he is hanging with Colby. He looks so big! Links to this post. Sunday, July 6, 2014. Ahh, the ol summer pastime of mini golf. Colby has been waiting for it to open since February! But, we all have fun. Man, I love summer! Links to this post. I left wo...

Monkey Business: July 2013
http://dargantwins.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 2, 2013. Its been awhile since I wrote about my twins. When they were little I thought about and talked about the fact that they are twins so often. People asked about them all the time. Their daily care was a challenge. They way they interacted was fascinating. That has faded quite a bit. They are never recognized as twins anymore. I am often asked how close in age my kids are and when I mention twins, people assume Ella and Tyler are the set (she is a little peanut! I launched into my mom...
