I had a problem getting on the internet last night, this morning and tonight. I may have to call Comcast and find out what the problem is. I am using the laptop to blog tonight. I had a terrible day today. I had to fire two girls in the office. One called the other a name and the other smacked her with a ruler. The owner is away from the office and after consulting with the attorney; her recommendations were to fire both. I’m the one who had to do it. I felt like throwing up. It’s an upsetting thing to have to do. I just wanted to go home and curl up with my little Danny Boy.
I also had a problem with the software and the spreadsheet. The spreadsheet totals balanced but when I entered the numbers in the computer, they were off by two cents. I thought I entered a number incorrectly. I entered them three times then I used the calculator and the spreadsheet was not adding properly. It didn’t make sense. I got one of the girls to look at it and it didn’t make sense to her either.
Everyday is a challenge. I just wish I didn’t have this kind of a challenge.
I will get to bed early. I hope I can get a good night sleep. I’ll have more challenges tomorrow.

Dear Karol
My heart goes out to you! That is the worst thing to have to do. The employees there are on the vicious side or having a bad day.
Are the numbers on the spread sheet with more than two decimals if so they could be rounding up on the total. Another is between 6 & 8 cents. I know mund my own business! Ha Ha. Keep the faith and good luck in finding your mistake.
Love your blog friend

Wow, how old are these girls? We had 2 pre-press guys fired 2 weeks ago for something against company policy - they were good employee's too but they editted their time sheets or something like that and next thing we know they are out the door.
It's a shame. I was in that position once as estimating supervisor there was a girl who I was really good friends with but she just wasn't estimator material. Great worker, always on time and did whatever was asked, just didn't have the "mechanical" tools needed, so I transferred her to customer service which was better suited to her capabilities. I would have hated to fire her. I can't imagine.
