It's astonishing how little I have to do today.

I almost called in sick, but I thought to myself, "No...that isn't professional. I'll go in, but I just won't do any work. That way, I'll still get paid."

So I got here this morning, and everyone else called in. I'm here, relatively alone, and I have nothing to do.

Okay. Bored again.

Time for some reflection, I suppose:

If I were getting paid a lot more to be here, would I be any more motivated (or any less annoyed) to do work-related things when there's nobody around to follow up on what I'm doing?

Um...no.

I don't think I have any particular need for supervision, but when my biggest project since moving onto my new team has been to make an org chart using PowerPoint, I think I can afford some cynicism and laziness today, especially since everyone else totally blew today off. That's why I'm going to be successful here: I actually show up.


Uh oh...my mind is drifting to Star Trek again.



...Wesley Crusher.

Rrgh! Dammit! I can't even think good things about Star Trek because today sucks so much.


I'm gonna go now.
