Yeah this blog has fallen to the way-side as I've been in serious job hunting mode. I've spent most of my day reading trades to catch up on some of the things that are going on within this industry so that i can feel on top of things when i go into my interviews. Had one on Friday that seems to me to be a great place and a good fit for me,i'll have to move out of state for it but the $ is good and i'll be with some great people. I find out Monday what happens next with that. If they offer me a job i'll be telling this shit hole to shove it first thing Tuesday.
OAG" is still useless and we've hired a new Sales/ Office Manager who is only a step better than her. This is the same dipshit that the "Old Company B" had working here. When the New CEO asked "OAG" about having the US office find a new Sales Manager she (behind my back) told HQ-Land that this guy would be great. HQ-land and "OAG" never asked me about it or what my thoughts were. They just hired him. He is a real winner and I'll get into his story more next week.
Just to give you a taste of him. In the past I've seen this guy give a sales pitch to a big company without doing any prep for it and he spent the night before in the hotel playing World Of Warcraft rather than of going over the Power Point slides i made him. So, he thought he'd just be able to look at the slides and not study them at all before going into the conference room. Needless to say he stunk the room up and looked at me more than 5 times to explain the slides. We looked like idiots and did not get the job. So "Sales Dope" is back and i had no idea we were in the market for a Sales Guy. If i did I'd have spent more than a day looking for one.
Again, i'll try and really catch everyone up next week, hopefully I'll be preparing myself for a new job though. Alot has gone on but it really is only the same old bullshit. I still hate it here and do not feel guilty about taking a paycheck from these bone heads.Labels: "OAG", "Sales Dope", interviews, jobs, new job, Video Games, work sucks, Your job sucks |
