Just Pass Me By

Don’t honk, don’t cut me off, just pass me by!

 

Murphy Law

Murphy law, If it can go wrong it will go wrong, If you need it to work out right, it will not be right. With Murphy Law nothing will ever turn out quiet right there will always be something wrong.  That how it been with one of my projects at work. The harder I try to get it all right and prefect the worst it is! I had everything in order, and ready to be folded and stapled into their folders. Well by the time they got made up, we ended up having 1 of the pages being reverse from the right way. I know I had everything right I even looked and made sure the order was being followed but everyone was wrong. HMMM cute.

I work at a church, tess the season for them to have meetings, that need prefect reports and in the right order. I apologized, and said I don’t know what happened.. I had it all in the correct order, so not sure how that happened. The pastor said Murphy is a live and well. I guess he is right.

I do have to admit, I wish I would have started this job before the report needed to be worked on so I could get used to the job first, or after the yearly report. Don’t get me wrong I have enjoyed my job and working their and hope to be hired on full-time, but I think the projects they started me with was not pleasant. Well I can say one thing I do not think anything worst then that report can happen! That is the biggest and hardest file I have had to work with and being that it was in a program I am not used to. I can know say I know Publisher rather well.. Because I have had to learn how to fix things. I also found out I can undo mistakes from that file.

In Publisher it not like WORD where if you make a mistake you have the little undo button on the top, instead you have to go to like Edit and then Undo. To add a new text box I figure out how to do that the long way I knew how to move a text box that was no longer needed from one place to another but today I needed all them text boxes and I had to come up with a new Text BOX my News Letter took about 40 minutes to complete, because I couldn’t pick what color I wanted. I think a few more days of Publisher I will have probably figured it out, I do not like Publisher, I prefer Word, or Works. I know those two programs well. Well I hope that they like what I came up with this week, I guess I will find out tomorrow.

I am so blessed to be working there. I have noticed such a big different coming home I do not feel as stressed. I feel like I have accomplished something almost everyday. Grant it last night I had night mares about their report, but I think tonight I will sleep. It is so different working somewhere where people are less likely to yell at you. Now I need to find a new way to organize my desk, so people know where to put things which need doing. I know with the report I was working on and other stuff right out of the gate, I was doing good at just finding myself on those item. Now I should have a little time to organize my brain there too..
