*Rant*
A woman just came into my office and complained because she says that she finished a seminar we organized but she didn't get the corresponding credits (they need training credits to upgrade the category and improve their salary). Well, hello! You need to attend 80% of the classes in order to get a certificate and credits. Maybe if you hadn't left after 30 minutes in every single class you would have gotten the credits!
And she insisted that we had given her an attendance certificate... no way we did! She just made that up to see if she could get the credits anyway, even though she had been informed that she wasn't a regular student, and she knew she didn't fulfill the requirements.
She was sooo pissed. But I couldn't believe her nerve. These people are getting paid to be trained for free, during working hours.
Maybe we should just ask people to sign up for a nonexisting course and give them the credits right away, so they don't have to bother attending it. That way they could skip work every week for three hours and not only still get paid for it, but also improve their income by being a complete lazy ass!
I told her this (well, the general idea, without being rude) and she left my office outraged. She has no right to be outraged, I have!
People are so corrupt. |

in the past couple of weeks, I have seen 2 very pregnant women smoking. the first time I wanted to slap her, and this time I felt sad and sick.
If you can't give up smoking for 9 months, then you don't deserve a child. |

That's disgusting! I understand it's an addiction, but aren't they slightly concerned about their babies' health? |

| So, thursday I am in a parade. This local parade asked my work to be the grand marshalls. It has a glitz, and glam hollywood theme kinda thing. Anywho, so 3 staff members are in it in sparkley dresses and shiny tux's and stuff. I voluntered to take pictures of it, thinking I would just be walking along, but the wardrobe dept pulled me a 40's style polka dot dress and little felt hat which I am making a press card thing for. |

I had an amazing day today!!!
A friend, my sister and I went to defend our paper on Genocidal Social Practices today, and we got a 9/10. But that's not the best part. The professor offered us to join a project he's doing. I'm not so sure what exactly we will be doing, but it has to do with systematizing information for the trials of the people responsible for the genocide in Argentina. The professor of one of the best subjects in my entire career offered us to be a part of an extremely interesting project! I still can't believe it. I'm elated :oD.
Btw, found more info about it. The project's called: "Toward a reconstruction of the Argentine genocide memories. The construction of the Testimony Archive about ex-detainees-dissapeared in concentration camps or jails during the last military dictatorship".

You won't mess it up.
Sidenote: if you change 'productions' to 'producers' in your first sentence the meaning really changes. |

That's great news for all of you! Well done! I don't know much about the subject at all, but sounds like some serious stuff. I hope that this experience will be (sounds like it would be) really beneficial to you, and maybe it will lead to something grand. (lol...like I said, I don't know enough on the subject.)
By the way, that's a really long project title! haha...
Anyway, I just wanted to say Congratulations to all 3 of you, and I hope you learn and get a lot out of this project! |
