i must rant about work today...

yes, i come in late every morning (approx 15 mins :S). i know its not good, BUT i always make up for my time AND MORE. i work through my lunch atleast 3 times a week = 3 hours which more than makes up for my 15 mins x 5 days = 1 hour 15 mins.

Furthermore, i work late whenever necessary. there was a time when i worked late for 3 months straight - usually til around 8:15-8:30pm but some nights were until 9:30-10:00pm!! ANNNDDDD i do not claim overtime!! not because my position doesn't allow me to but b/c the VP asked me to stop so that he could show the president that OT is on the decline b/c we are getting all our work done. that and the fact that my company doesn't make any money so he has to keep the expenses low. anyhow, he (VP) said that he doesn't want an official record of it, but i could just come in late during down periods to make up for it...hence my tardiness every morning.

isn't it funny that when you're slaving away during your lunch hour or during your dinner hour, you are never "monitored" or told "you should go home, its way past your home time" or anything remotely close to that?!

so OFCOURSE the morning that the subway is delayed because of some power outage at yonge station, is the morning that the president and the VP decide to come by my desk and notice that i'm not in yet. they tell my supervisor to start "monitoring" me. pfffff! if you want to go ahead and be a penny pincher and monitor my every minute then go ahead - monitor me. don't worry i'm going to be on time for EVERYTHING! on time to start, on time to finish, and on time to go to lunch EVERYDAY! oh and i will still stay for overtime if required but it will no longer be free :)
