I spent the Easter weekend at the New Jersey shore with my mom. We had a great time and we got home a few hours ago. As soon as the car was unpacked, I came straight to my office. Just like returning to a “real” job after a few days off, I almost didn’t know where to start. I caught up on a few emails I couldn’t handle from my BlackBerry and I started the job search.
I’ve always been a multi-tasker so while I was doing the job search I was doing a few other things. Thank God for Windows. I quickly realized I was back to work. My blog entry from Friday posted with Thursday’s date. A text message I saved in draft on my BlackBerry so I could investigate a few things upon my return home won’t open. The light bulb in my office is out.
This really is my full-time job. The only difference is that at Sister Rain, Inc. there is no maintenance department to call about the light bulb and there is no MIS team to assist me with my technological difficulties.
I’m reminded of a t-shirt I saw this weekend on the boardwalk. It read, “Reality Bites”. Oh yes it does. Especially when you are the only employee in your company!
