Default Going Insane

Sorry to vent again...but damn. In the past 3 days I have worked 36 hours. I spend more time at work than I do at home. I don't get to the gym anymore, hell, I hardly get to even eat most of the time. On top of that I am flat broke and still have bills to pay and 2-months rent due in January. So I'm grumpy/bitchy/stressed and frustrated as hell.

Tomorrow is another forcasted 12 hour day. The only highlight being I get to work with a cutie from UT.

I better get one hell of a xmas bonus this year.

Again, I apologize for my sudo-emo bitching. I know some of you can relate to this shit.

If he wants, he can send his resume to Rod Kayton explaining his interest in becoming a focus group moderator. Can't guarantee anything, but it couldn't hurt: rod@schwartzresearch.com

Tell him to check out www.marketresearchinfo.com, Quirks (a MR magazine/website), and the QRCA. All provide tons of info on the industry.

The Burke Institude also has a moderator certification program which is rated highly among qualitative researchers. This is something I intend to do when time, workload, and budget permit.

I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work.

Thanks to my wonderful employer, I have an early vacation. Anyone hiring that is worth a shit? I'm out of the hospitality industry for life this time, hook me up with a desk job with 40 hrs a week and I will be happy.

I probably works about 20 hours a week if the schedule is busy, but my last few weeks have been doing chart after charts and I have 12 charts to do in ten days, each one takes an honest 4-5 hours apiece..ugh
