T-minus 6 days until I'm off to London. Thank goodness! Though, it looks like I'll be trading one rainy and grey place for another rainy and grey place. Sunshine! Is it too much to ask?

I can't wait to get away from work for awhile. While they have hired another admin, it still feels like I'm doing all the work. Okay, yes, the new admin is still training and stuff, but it doesn't seem like she's trying to learn at all. Yet again, someone who doesn't take notes. I mean, unless you have a photographic memory, you need to take notes. The job isn't rocket science but there's a lot of stuff to keep track of.

And there are times where I find she isn't doing the work. I'll hand her something to do, something fairly easy, and an hour later it's still sitting on her desk. When I was told who they were hiring to replace the other admin, I thought, "Okay, not bad." I had met the lady before and she seemed competent enough. She pretty much had the same role I have, but on another project, so I thought she wouldn't have a tough time learning our project. Not that she is having a tough time. I would certainly hear about it if she did. This lady is so talkative. There are times where I wish she'd stop going on and on about her old project and it's not like she's praising it either. It's constant complaining about how stupid our job can be. Yes, some things are stupid, but I don't need to hear about it all the time. I just wish she'd stop talking and pay attention because there will be a lot of things to look after while I'm gone.

I think I would have been happier doing everything myself. I would have been super busy, yes, but it would help to pass the time. Sigh. Oh, and random factoid: since joining this project, I have gone through three co-admins, four if you count this new one. I'm not sure what that says about me, the project, or the position.

Anyway, I can't wait until I'm in London. Tea! Museums! Castles! Harry Potter!
