I've fixed all the problematic stuff as best I could. God help them if they ever get audited cause so much stuff is missing that I can't do anything about, but, it's better than it use to be.

Now, there is just no work. I literally did 15 minutes of actual work today and that was it - and not by choice.

I had my one year review recently and although it was pretty good, there was one part that bugged me. The VP here had told me that "I leave everything until the last minute, and I shouldn't because I never know what the next day holds" which not only irked me, but pissed me off. First off, I know what tomorrow holds - it's called didly squat. Second, it's called turn around time. We have turn around time for a reason - so we can charge more if people want it done on a rush basis. I've already proven that I can churn out more work which would normally take 2 people a good 5 hours with a couple of re-audits (corrections) in 3 hours with 100% accuracy.

But fine, you are the VP of the Toronto division and you know best. It's not like I actually make you way more money now than when you had the other girl. I'll do anything and everything as soon as I get it and then sit on my ass with nothing to do for the remainder of the day.

This is what has been happening lately. Even if I get a medium treasury direction for some 50+ share certificates, with a normal turn around time of 48 hours, I'll do it in about an hour and put it out the door.

All I hear day in and day out is how bad Mitzi was, and how she was dumb, her work was always wrong, how it's been such a hassle to go through and fix all the problematic transactions and I am getting thoroughly pissed off. Guess what, she might have done crappy work, but it was based on your ****ty directions and it should of never have been approved and sent out in the first place if you guys knew how to do your jobs!!!

I'm ranting now, but just thinking about it all is pissing me off even more, especially since I found out today how much vacation time everyone in this office is getting (triple mine) and also found out how much my coworker makes when she let it slip (18k more than me BEFORE bonus). Keep in mind this coworker can't do her job for ****. I'll purposely print something out that is done wrong, as well as correct it and print the good version out too - but I'll just give her the bad items to see if she'll put it through - and 8/10 times SHE DOES and I have to stop her before she approves it and let her know what she missed.

Somehow that just doesn't seem fair to me, but whatever I'm not bitter - and don't even get me started on trying to enforce policy, nobody listens to me or I get an "I'm too busy right now to do it right". Ugh. This place is a gongshow and I don't have the "power" I guess you could say, to fix it - because I'm the low man on the totem pole and they don't have to listen.

And now I need a smoke and a beer in the sun...argh
