Audit is over, Metrics are turned in, and now I am on call

Filed Under (Random) by User ImageJoby on 14-11-2008


Ok so I have not posted a lot about my work life lately. We have been in the middle of a huge @$$ audit that could have really been horrible if we failed. Today we go word that all is good :)

I had to turn in answers to a 16 question survey that basically required me to brag about how damn good I am in order to be inline for our upcoming bonus. I hate to talk about myself, it seems so fake. I had to say “Mike is good at this… Mike excells in that…” (Mike is the real name folks) I hated it. Now in mid December I get to defend those comments to my supervisor fun stuff eh!?!

I am on call for the next week. This means I get to sit at home all weekend (except for Church time) and wait for my BlackBerry to chime off my favorite John Petrucci tune letting me know some poor shmuck is in need of immediate help or the plant will shut down because he cannot get into his email or something.

The plus is I am in training for the first three days of next week so I do not have to go into the office.

I am gonna go have dinner then I may come back and post again - Who knows with the amount of time I am gonna have I may post 20 times this weekend!

Take time to read other blogs

As an EntreCard dropper I first started out just dropping and running. As time went on I started ’skimming’ the first post or so, now it takes me all day to drop cause I end up reading the first post or so of 300 blogs (if the latest post is new of course.)

Any way I bring this up because Greg Mathews (a fellow EntreCarder)  mentioned a site called blog pictures a few days ago and although I read it, it was not until last night that I had time to check it out. MAJOR audit at work but that is another post for another time…

Blog Pictures | acobox.com Blog Pictures really is simple to use. You register, search for the photo you want to use, choose the size and alignment and “boom” they give you the code to paste into your blog.

I chose the Fall picture because I prefer Fall to any other searson - yes EVEN Summer.

Bloggers can search for images for their blogs, and Photographers can even upload their photos to be included for the Bloggers to use.

As I said, it pays to read the blogs you drop on, otherwise you could miss out one goldmines like Blog Pictures.
