What a week…

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I don’t think I’ve ever been so glad to have a week over with. There’s just been so much turmoil and stress involved with work this week that it will be so nice just to have a couple of days where I don’t have to be here!

I did discover today that there wasn’t a delay in hiring a new person, it was just that no one bothered to tell me until today that she starts Monday. Nothing like trying to get accounts and a PC setup when I had already scheduled so many other things that needed to get done today! But things went well and one of my coworkers did a great job of getting stuff done that she was unfamiliar with without needing too much help from me, and everything got accomplished. I’m going to bask in the relief of knowing we got everything done today that needed to get done despite the odds this weekend. I’ll worry about what all we need to get done Monday, on Monday.

Hope you all have a great weekend!

    This is actually the topic of my weekly email to the staff at work, something interesting that I discovered yesterday. One of my users was trying to send a mail list to one of our vendors. She had it saved as an Excel file with over 4000 records. The file was over 2MB in size….
