dolariJenn had a mini breakdown all day yesterday.
At the end of the day, I was convinced I was going to put in my two weeks notice tomorrow, and walk off the job if I couldn't get out of work on Saturday.
After a day of ltierally sloughing through work, we managed to move a LOT of the house, which is good, and turn the truck over to the mechanic. So far $230 of the $500 of the Save Jenn's Truck Fund is spent, but the brakes, battery and oil have been replaced. No noises about a cracked bloc, so I think that first guy was scamming me pretty hard.
After everything was done, I literally collapsed in bed and woke up several hours later. I decided NOT to put in my two weeks notice, but to keep my eye out for "manufactured" reasons to fire me.
See, there's something going on here that isn't very Kosher.
We all got called into individual meetings where we were told "Metric X must be at Y% by July 11th, or you're gone." This is not good news, considering that metric is pretty hard to get to. Compliance is 98% (No it's not the logging one I made fun of earlier in the year). Well, I know better than to take that at face value. What they will do is "distill" the techs down. First it'll be Metric X. Then Metric A. Then MEtric B. Untill such time that no techs remain.
My fear here is that we will be terminated for "Not being able to do the job." Which looks VERY VERY bad on a resume. I'd rather quit before that happens. In my case, though, I can make Metric X. I'm worried they'll manufacture SOMETHING to boot me out.
What do YOU, the viewer at home, think?
