I'm still here . . .

But not really. Right now I'm actually in Cincinnati, having been giving a last minute training assignment. I didn't really want to leave Lincoln due to timing, but I'm glad they gave me the opportunity to come and train.
Frankly, the work environment has beena little stressful lately. 3 of the 4 members of my team were given a "be where we think you should be - or else" letters, me being one of the 3. The fourth member of our team has had this job for almost ten years while the rest of us were all onboarded in the last 2 1/2 years. I've always been pretty good at office politics, but my manager doesn't really play the game which leaves the rest of us in a tight spot. I've hashed and rehashed this with everyone I can talk to about it and have come down to one decision. - Do my best to make the job work while looking for something else . . .
or win the lottery.

But since I never seem to remember to buy a ticket, I guess its option one.

I'm ready to be home and see my family, even though its been fun here. I get a little turned around with directions, but always seem to get where I'm trying to go. I think I might hit the little outlet mall across the street from my hotel this evening unless something comes up.
