The long story for the job: I was working at an Electric company in their mail room. Which was really misnamed because we answered the phone “reproductions” and mostly made copies for the company. But anyway, my job fell under the department of (gosh, what was our department called? I don’t remember…but we took care of everything that had to do with paper really.) Anyway the Data Storage manager found a new job in a different department and they needed to replace her. I don’t know why but somehow she was leaving the job before we could find a replacement for her. It was suggested that I apply for the job but I didn’t have enough experience for it…they wanted two years and I had only been with the company for 1 year and I had ½ a year of college which would go as ½ a year of experience…so I was only short by ½ a year. You could tell my boss really wanted me to have the job…she took a long time in hiring the replacement. But in the meantime I was trained to do the job so I could fill in and train the next person. I was GOOD at this job. This was like the perfect job for me, but alas I couldn’t have the job. So eventually they hired someone else to do the job and I trained her and eventually I went back to my old position. You could tell that the temp that filled in for me was REALLY disappointed that I came back. Oh well. Turns out that the person they hired was very lazy. There were times when I stopped by with her mail and she would ask me about something…just so I would do it for her. I also spent a lot of time there filing documents that were to be destroyed.
See one of our coal fired turbines exploded. So we were being sued by the nearby farmers and we were suing the manufacturer of the turbine…so lots of documents had been removed from the archives for the law suits. As part of the settlement it was agreed that all of these documents would be destroyed (we musta got big bucks for that!) So I spent about an hour each night working overtime filing these documents back into their boxes so the entire box could be destroyed. I ended up leaving before that was all finished.
