OMG! This is the longest post ever

Today was one of the most eventful days of my working life. To start from the beginning tomorrow was nearly eventless (I hardly even remember it) and it passed fast enough, at 5:30 my phone rang, I was in my car so I picked up to find a guy named W who works here at the center he told me to come early (before 9:45 that means around 8:30) because am goin to the No2rashy .
So today I woke up at 7 and was here at the centre at 8:20 and as usual we didn’t move from here until 9:20, but before we leave I met N (the one I think is soo not my style ) she asked me have you heard the latest news? and of course I told her I didn’t she said that they won’t renewal madam’s M contract.
To tell you the truth I was upset , and shocked never in my wildest dreams had I imagined that they’d do that, I mean even if she didn’t work that good to just fire her ass, with no prior warning it’s creepy, anyways when I asked her why? She said she don’t know but Dr. H (the boss) didn’t want her, and that everyone begged him to keep her but he wouldn’t . OMG! It’s because of me, of course I didn’t say that but I thought it, anyways N told me not to tell anyone since she only knows cause she is the one who typed it, (as a secretary) .
Then off I headed to the no2ashy , which wasn’t as bad as everyone else said it was. Don’t get me wrong it was DISGUSTING but I thought it would be even more DISGUSTING, maybe part of the reason I didn’t hate it that much is because there were no other ppl only ppl who came with me from the centre (don’t get me wrong there was other ppl but they all happened to be GURLS and since guys & gurls aren’t treated 2gether then it was only us ) the nurses treat you there like you are one of 2 things 1- in jail 2- in the army, they bark orders that you have to follow, if you didn’t …………… you figure that out.
Anyways I came back from the No2rashy intact I was hot disgusted felt like throwing up with my hair tied after it was down, but still intact. (I know it could’ve been worst). Anyways I came back and then I started classifying the books (I started that yesterday)
Then couple of hours later M (a gurl who works here who I have a minimum contact with) came and told me to do some stuff for the convention we have tomorrow, I started to do that, then a call came in the there is some new books coming here, when they came the dude who’s supposed to sign for receiving them didn’t come (his name is Is) so I went down to fetch him, and he asked me to do him a favor, since these books will eventually come to the library and I’ll sign that I took them, that I take them and he will sign cause his English is awful, I said I would , I don’t know the exact number of those books but am sure there no less than 100 probably 200.
anyways while I was doing that Madam H called (she’s the HR manager) and told me that Dr, H is coming with some VIP and are taking a tour at 6 pm , (which I knew already because Dr’s H secretary told me and she also told me confidentially that Dr H has a lot of hope in you so you wouldn’t let him down ) and that I needed to be dressed in formal , which I totally wasn’t because I knew am going to the No2rashy so I dressed in jeans J
LOL
Anyways then N came and told me that I am staying in Helnan Palestine for the duration of the convention, and I had to get my bags ready, WOW.
So I told Madam H I still have work to do it was around 2 so I gave them till 3 then decided I’d leave, of course at 3 I wasn’t done yet so I went to Is told him that I gtg right now
Anywayz I went to my aunt borrowed a blazer from her then I flown home got my bag ready and flown back here, at 5:15 I was inside the library and it was a total mess, books everywhere, empty boxes. It was totally upside down, I took off my blazer and started moving the books Madame H came and found me doing that , so she sent a couple of workers to assist me, in 20 minutes the library was as good as new so I turned on all of the computers opened the webpage and closed the shades turned on the high lights , cut off the internet of my pc and plugged it to another one so when the Dr. H comes find every PC working, then wiped my hands and face, and opened all the AC closed the doors and relaxed on the chair , then Dr H came so I gave him a replay email for the things he asked about couple of days ago, he told me to give it to Dr A, then sat down took a deep breath and started writing the whole thing on a Word file so I would put it on my blog later, then Madame H cam and told me that I should take care of my work and a whole lecture that means in a nutshell cover your ass and take care or you’ll get fired like Madame M (she didn’t mean it a mean way at least it didn’t sound like one, she was more shocked about the fact that they fired Madam M , so she’s kinda wondering who would he fire next since all of them don’t understand what is he so upset about). When I told her there was a certain things that we told Dr. A about and he said he’ll do it. she said and I quote – here you have to do your work not wait for anyone’s help or else you are the one who’ll take the blame later on, the library now is under the spotlight and there is a lot of things that he(Dr. H) is less than satisfied about so take care. And if you need ANYTHING come 2 me.
End of quote
And also NV (Dr. H secrtary )told me that Madame M is leaving, I told her that I heard words but am not sure and that Madam M didn’t say anything to me and I asked her Why and she said that Dr H doesn’t like her work and before she said anything else Qu came in and she didn’t complete.
They stood for a while and left.
Now it’s 7:27 and the ppl are not here yet so I am tired, sleepless and hungry
That’s it for now,
P.s and if you think it’s tiredsom to read ALL that imagin doing it,
And on another note my feet hurt like hell cause the shoes am wearing is sooo tight, god I hate formal .

Good Morning Madam M

today was just like any usual day in my boring SMC life, I came early cause i figured probably Mr h the boss will be there early.
the day kinda flew Dr Ha Came and asked me to do some work for her which i and in my way to give it to her N, Dr H the boss’s secretary, called me over, she was on the phone so I had to wait till I find out what does she wants , while am hanging around in her office Madame M came and saw me so she asked me what am doing here (like it’s any of her business) so I told her am not sure, then 10 minutes later N gave me a letter that I have typed it earlier to Dr. A so when Madame M realized that she went on telling me that I should run anything by her and when I told her that I told her before that I told her I typed this letter, she told me that I should ‘ve told her that I already did, (I have to admit that 1 of my many flaws is when I feel am under attack I get defensive it’s like I don’t want ppl so say I did anything wrong) so we went for a couple minutes in a you should told me to I already did routine and then I went back to my desk she told me that anything I should do am supposed to tell her which I still wont “always ” do like yesterday Dr. H the boss sent me an email and told me to send it to a certain ppl, I won’t tell her for 2 reasons 1- Dr. H asked them from me not her 2- because when I first worked at the SMC Dr. H the boss asked me to send him an email and gave me an email and everything , I was new and I didn’t want her to feel threatened so I told her everything, then she told me not to worry cause she’d send him the email, wanna guess what happened , yeah absolutely right she didn’t and Dr. H got the impression than am not competent so am sorry Madame M won’t let you do that again to me, he already think that you are not good enough you’re over 60 you already retired and apparently this job is not that important for you am 25 this is the job of my dream I won’t let you ruin it for me , thank you very much,

Plus it’s not like she run everything by me.

Hopefully this situation will be resolved soon with no real problems (at least not for me LOL)

Anywayz before Dr. H the boss left he summoned me in his office and asked me if I sent the emails I told him I did and he was very pleased, gr8 work Lobna

Ps I started this post at work but finished it at home cause a friend was waitin for me at the street so I couldn’t keep her waitin any longer

That’s it for now

is it WOW3?

yeah it just might be my third post about my and my boss Dr.H.
today i came about 9:30 am and found out that he's already here, i hurried to the library turned on every computer and mine and while i was opening the internet explorer on the first one he came in, he and Dr. A and qu. then he asked about certain things in the WHO then asked me to follow him to his office and i stayed in his office for like 10 or 20 min.
then he started asking me about the journals we subscibed at and the WHO stuff. and he asked about a certain list then i told him it's with Madame M, he then asked about her when i told him she wasn't here yet he didn't like it he kept repeating that it seems that she doesn't wanna be her anymore (of course a clear sign that they won't renew her contract next year) then he sent me some stuff on the email and told me that i have to start knowing everything.
i need to pause just a minute i don't wish for Madame M to get fired although am not her greatest fan (don't think anyone is) but i don't wish her harm, don't get me wrong I've always said that when she dies i'll bring ma friend Noga to work in her place, but that's another matter i mean she's already a zillion years old and she'll die eventually. i don't want to have the slightest hand in her leaving . plus to be honset it was hardly ten so it wasn't that late(she usually come on 11:30 ) we start at 9 but everyone comes at 9:30.
upausing and going back to what happened
then i stayed in his office for a while and every few minutes he'd say the same thing about Madame M.
after that i came back to the library and waited for a while then she came , i was still guilty from what i felt like my fault so the minute she came i tried to look worried (which wasn't that hard cause i already felt guilty) she asked me if he asked about her and for the first time she wasn't that worried I told her he did and that he wanted stuff from her, she didn't seem concerned and went to her desk.
the email dr H sent me did reach me so i told his secretary N that and gave her my email again and asked her not to forget to give it to him and then just kinda zoned out. at 2pm Madame M asked me if dr. H is sending me an email then she asked what was in the email? i told her and she in the mid of my sentence she seemed like she lost interest.
then at 3 she left , i mean that woman should pay more attention to her work
anyways that's what happened today nothing, and the email is still not here
that's it for now
