don't be an accountant

I've been working at IBM (again) for the past 2 weeks.. it's like, they call me back cos if I don't go they are screwed.

The story is this - Person A is leaving the company, so Person B is her replacement. However, Person B is going on leave like one week after she starts work, so I was called in to replace Person B when she went on leave. Hence Person B and I were called in at the same time to learn from Person A.

So Person B went off and Person A finally left, and i covered while B was on leave.
But when B came back, she decided to resign. SO. They are screwed, with noone to take that job (and no time to teach a new person either)
Hence they called me back to cover... and i found out last week that i had to teach the new person that was coming in too.

Ok there is actually more to this complicated story about the new person who came in this week whom im teaching now but i shan't bore you with the details. Just that this week was month end , the last few days of the month. My working hours were something like this:

Monday-- 830AM- 10PM
Tues -- 830AM-10PM
Wed (last day of month) - 830AM - 1140PM.

DAMN BUSY CRAZY TIRED CAN. it's like every day just go home and sleep. wake up, go to work. rinse and repeat.

Seriously, accountants' lives are damn sad, they have to work like crazy when it's month end cos they have to close accounts and dunno what shit. So every month end (and quarter end worse, year end even worse) have to have massive amounts of work suddenly.


And anyway now I'm faced with another conflict.. they want me to come back the week after Psych camp for another TWO weeks. Which i'm very reluctant to.. cos i wanna relax already!! sigh. I think most likely i won't, unless the pay is incredulously high. Like 12 an hour or something. muahaa.

kbye.
