so work is coming along...not very exciting and i'm fairly low on the totem pole...but i'm gonna thug through it and work my way up and out. prove myself to the bosses and all that ish. moving up and out of an admin position into more of a true analyst position will be a challenge - but all i can do is try. the only thing i really can't stand about work is this character:
THE HATER. My cubicle neighbor - so this dude is 27. engaged. he's had such a sour attitude towards me since i came aboard its ridiculous. he was hired to do analyst work at the entry level but had to fill in for my position while i waited for my clearance to go through - so understandably he was probably a little miffed and frustrated. but the snippity remarks? no can do. everytime i've voiced my opinion about anything discussed in the office, he has an offhand remark and a dismissive laugh to go along with it. everyday, he reminds me in some way, that i am an admin asst. as he shovels his former duties on me in loud and obnoxious ways.
"thank god i'm not doing that anymore" he jokes loudly with another cubicle-neighbor.
i try to ignore, but soon i am laser eye-ing him through the walls.
at this point, i'm getting a hang of things. i'm quick on my feet and i haven't messed up yet. i meet the bosses boss and VP tomorrow at a new employee meet and greet - hoping/knowing i'll make a great impression.
there were a couple of other meanies in the office when i first started but overall everyone is warming up to me - i'm befriending (office-wise) them one by one, staying positive and upbeat in the office even though sometimes i want to curl up and sleep lol.
oh, and everyone in my division is engaged or married. every last one. glad i missed the holiday party cuz i do NOT have a date to bring lol.
anywayssssssssss.... i'm going out tonight - to see raheem devaughn and this ethio chick sing down on u st. fbi bounces over there and i just KNOW i'll run into him. that'll be annoying, i'd really rather not. you know when you are bored/annoyed with someone they start to become less attractive too? yeah...thats happening.
THENNNN Saturday I'm going to see Nouveau Riche!!!! They are this awesome band with a lead singer I have an enormous crush on - I love her spirit, her smile, and she is just sexy. Watching her vids just puts me in a better mood - her name is Nikki Jean. Seeeee:
sigh...she's lovely. i love this song. and its the STORY OF MY LIFE.
The show is just $8!! I'm looking fwd to the diff crowd at this show, def not your typical bammas - more of an eclectic ensemble i'm hoping....
what are y'all doing this weekend?

Nikki Jean is the business....she's the one who sings on Lupe Fiasco's Hip Hop Saved My Life...and everything you said about her is straight on point. Keep doing your thugdizzle at work and hopefully that will shut that hater up. Have a great weekend A.N.!
Man tell dude to kiss your ass.
- the hater. [sigh]. EVERY job has one.
- raheem! that should be a great show. my bestfriend goes to howard so i'm out there often. last summer i got a chance to see him at Love. very very very nice...
