Sign Here

When I was a little girl, I would sign my name over and over again. I would fill pages of Megan Carpenter. I practice different styles and layouts. I couldn't wait to sign my name when I became an adult.

As we are refinancing our mortgage I found myself thinking tonight....."All of the years I practice was a waste- My name is Megan Brugh now" However, I did sign my name about 50 times tonight though.

Drivers License

What is one thing that most everyone lies about on their Drivers license?

THERE WEIGHT!!!

I had to grab Cody and my drivers license today for some paperwork and I looked at the horrible picture than realized I had this taken right after I got married. I was about 210+ in weight and I said I was 170lbs. :) Now, I am way below that weight and my license still has the wrong weight on it.

My husband got his drivers license renewed over a year and he put his weight less than 55lbs that he really was at the time.

Its not just females that lie about their weight - men do it too!!!

What does your drivers license say?

Vacation

Did I mention we went to Florida last month? I realized I didn't post any pictures.


On our way to the sunny Shine State!Sitting in the bar area relaxing.

Cody hates this picture but who else would take our picture on the beach?
On the pier. - it was very windy

"Crazy"

I haven't blog much because I been under alot of stress at work. I love what I do and the work that I am doing however the work environment is horrible.

I have two bosses, which they both dislike each other - alot. I been told by one boss that her work comes before the other. They both talk bad about each other and hope one or the other quits. How professional can directors be?

I started having conflicts with my primary boss in April. So bad, that I almost just left the job and went on a job hunt somewhere else. I can go on and on with the events that have happen to me. I been called rude, unprofessional and put down and interrupted daily when I try to explain an event. She basically down grades me and puts me down daily. I have found myself crying at work. Now, I am to the point where I am PISS, and a huge stress ball about to explode.

I have spoke with many of my HR friends and I have no documentation. My boss has always been verbally rude and puts me down and tells me I DO EVERYTHING WRONG. I found myself knowing more than her on some topics (payroll) but she just interrupts my thought or comment and blows me off. I have to watch what I do and when to speak to her. I mostly only speak to her when she walks out of her office and there are people are around.

I have spoke many people and shared many stories and they all think she is "Crazy".

Along with the drama with my boss(s), the company is not in good shape. I process payroll and the CFO is counting pennies every other week. They have been on credit hold with many vendors. Are behind more than 90 days on bills. No one has had a raise in 3 years and employees are VERY UNHAPPY. Because my boss is not approachable and is rude and short to most people, I found myself answering and helping employees with any questions they have. I tried to encourage them to contact her, however I feel that I have more weight on me.

I just find myself daily fighting with myself mentally of why I continue to work for this company.

So I am on the job hunt - again.

Shopping

I notice recently the huge difference between Kroger and Walmart. I went to both this weekend.

Kroger - Walk through the store and someone is playing a piano
Walmart -A people greeter at the door -WELCOME TO WALMART!
Kroger - Walk right into a large section of fresh fruits and vegetables.
Walmart - Loud check outs and a weak produce department - if you could see it.
Kroger - Walk straight into the next department...deli -Someone is right there ready to help - Do you want a free sample they asked?
Walmart - Wait in line to get a gallon of milk and there is only one person working at the deli - I don't want to wait in line.
Kroger - As you look at the meat - there is always friendly customer starting a conversation
Walmart- Seriously, you didn't see me - got ran over by a shopping cart.
Kroger - Geez, my cereal is not on sale...I am not paying $5 for a box
Walmart- My cereal is on sale and I have a coupon
Kroger - Ma'm, are you ready to check out? We can get you right over here.
Walmart - These lines are forever long
Kroger - Hello, How is your day? Would you like to leave this out?
Walmart - I say to the cashier - Here are my bags.....She takes them. No word no response -Just rolled her eyes.
Kroger- Ma'm do you have any coupons today? Great! and your Kroger card?
Walmart- I say to the cashier, Oh I have coupons......-she takes them than asked - Did you buy.....yes I did - as she search through my bags.
Kroger - Today you saved $40.00 and have a great day.
Walmart - Your total is............
Kroger - Ma'm would you like me to help you with your cart and put your bags in your car?
Walmart - The cashier hands me her receipt and I walk away. Cashier didn't say a word.
