So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Upon removing the offending rotten boards, he discovered that the frame that was holding them up was also rotten. He can't replace the surface rotten boards without replacing the frame boards. Upon taking up one of the frames, he discovered that many of the foundation boards were also rotten. Indeed, the concrete pylons that make up the foundation itself are sitting at angles. What my landlord conceived as a weekend project for himself has now stretched into a week, and my deck is a mess of exposed nails and jutting boards that cannot be traversed. A large spider has taken the opportunity to build a complex web across the entrance to the yard. At work it is more of the same. I try to fix one thing in a figure I have made. No... not so easy... the file is uneditable. It will have to be remade. Oh, but the access license for the software I made it with isn't working. Oh, the data files that went into the software program are on a computer that is no longer accessible to me. In order to fix the figure I have to redownload the data, get IT to fix the software license, rebuild the figure from scratch, and THEN export it. Oh, too much trouble! I'll just buy some tickets for my work travel for October. "Oh, but you have to have us buy your tickets unless you have a release saying that you are going to do it." "How do I get the release?" "Submit everything as if we were going to do it for you, but with your reasons why you want to do it yourself, and then you can be approved to do it yourself. You will be given a strict price limit over which you cannot go. Oh, but one of your trips hasn't been ok'd by management yet, so both of them will have to be treated as "late planning". You can't really plan either of them until management oks them." "But it was management in the first place who told me quite late that I had to go!" "You'll have to get management to write a letter explaining why they need you to go and why it was so late... then we'll have a chance at being able to plan your travel so that you can get the clearance for you to book the travel yourself." Later... Management: "Yes... we're trying to get a lot of people approved after the fact, because everyone was told that they were to attend very late." "I need to make my travel arrangements, so I need a letter saying why I am applying to go late." "Why don't you write the letter yourself, and then we'll sign it." "But I don't know why you decided to tell me so late!" "Just write something, and make sure it doesn't use any key words that would cause concern, and we'll sign it." So to buy my own plane tickets, I need to write a letter about myself from the perspective of management, saying why I am applying late, then I need to get management to sign it, so that I can submit all of the information needed for the company to plan my trip, so that they can calculate a strict cost cap that I cannot exceed, so that I can book my own tickets, by which time the prices will have doubled. It is Friday afternoon at four o'clock and my WORK is a MASS OF EXPOSED NAILS AND JUTTING BOARDS THAT CANNOT BE TRAVERSED. 2 Comments. Man, they have terrible policies. They should just let you buy the tickets and then refund you... » randomjunk on 2015-08-28 07:29:12 deary » middaymoon on 2015-08-29 08:45:04
