Temp Job Fun!

Ok, so I'm working for the US Census right now. It's pretty crazy. Yesterday, May 1 was the kick-off for our project. I got to shadow some of my crew yesterday and see what they are dealing with. It's all pretty crazy stuff. There are some really nice people out there and some really delusional people out there. This one guy started yelling at us that he looked it up and didn't see anything in the Constitution for the Census and that the government is just trying to get his info, etc. I tried to explain that it IS in the Constitution...Title 13 to be exact and that this is completely confidential and its only for statistical purposes and for funding for our community. He would have none of it. I did manage to hand him an Information paper though. I'm hoping he looks it over, as it tells him all about the Confidentiality and where to find the Census in the Constitution and such. I have to reassign the case to one of my assistants, so I even told him someone else will come back to try again. Sigh.

I trained my crew last week. They are all pretty good. I'm only worried about 2 of them. I'm hoping that they shape up and it all goes well. This stuff isn't rocket science, but for some people it seems to be! Even with all the craziness though I think I'm enjoying myself. It's nice to be working again, but I feel that I don't have much time for Grr & my boyfriend. My boyfriend is being very supportive, but he's seen how crazy I can get. Like in my last job when I wasn't having any fun at all. Plus this will be over in only about 4 more weeks. And if nothing else, I'm making friends! I like having new friends, especially those who live close to me.

I'm still freaking out about school, but it's lessened now that I'm so focused on this job. But in about 4 weeks, it'll ALL come wooshing back to me! Eek.

The book is good, more on that when I finally finish it. My statistics textbook is still boring, but I'm getting through it. I got an A on last week's quiz. Yay. I'm very consistent and have been getting the same number of wrong answers on every quiz so far. Just one more homework assignment and then the final exam on June 1st.

Ok, I think I should go figure out dinner now.
Over & Out!
