a coworker just walked by my office and asked if i was ok
lmao i think we've been passing the cold around since someone on my team called in sick
noooooo cough and hiccups D:
hiccups are my actual least favorite
now my boss just showed up at my door and was like "did we not tell [supervisor] about we basically stole some company's website bc he sounds really surprised about it"
and i'm like "do you remember we had this meeting where i mentioned it and you were like no let's not tell the new guy about our extremely unethical practices"
and he's like "........ok so you're saying it's my fault"
i am an adult working in an adult workplace
L M A O well he's younger than i am
and also he isn't the one who made the decision to steal a website so i can't blame him
BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS we are finally redoing that whole thing so hey maybe we won't get sued
why did you steal a website
don't you work in like, CS??
LMFAO it's a long terrible story but mostly it has to do with us working for a company which knows nothing about how websites work
and so the company itself basically got their overseas team to completely copy a competitor's website and then hired some web designers (me, namely) to "work" on it
so my team was stuck with this website which we hated and did not want to take ownership for but the higher ups refused to give us time to actually make a real website
and now like six months later when THAT project totally crashed and bombed, they're finally letting us make a real website skjdfh so it's exciting 8D
ahah well that's awesome!
MAKE A GOOD ONE OR IM GONNA JUDGE U
I MAKE GREAT SITES but no actually i got pulled off the website project like months ago to do programming for digital signage
so oddly enough the people who did the digital signage were reassigned to the website project, and i am now head of our digital signage dept
which is an astoundingly stressful move, and why i've been so awol for the past month
HAHA it would be nicer if this came with a raise but i am biding my time for that conversation sdkjfh
