Bad and good...
Jan. 19th, 2006 10:40 pmWork is awful. Is there anything more stressful than a 1-on-1 with your boss's boss where he tells you that you've been doing a great job, that the team really needs you, and that you should look on the website where they describe the career paths so that you can work towards another promotion?
When you know you've been sucking? How can I interpret this other than 'you're not doing your job, but we don't dare fire or demote you right now because of all the turnover that we also spent a lot of time talking about -- look at the career site and shape up'?
Anyway, got home and played CoV, and it was a lot more fun this time, because we fought white things instead of red things. Better XP, too.
Basically, these people read the power-levelling guide where it says the best XP is from fighting +2s and miss the part where THE REST OF THE PARTY IS 2 LEVELS HIGHER THAN YOU. It's better XP if you're LEECHING. *sigh*
I think I recognize what's up, though -- my Corruptor is basically a blaster (since I dislike my secondary), so I hate reds, just like my real blaster hates reds. It's not fun to be a damage dealer and have your damage reduced by 60% or 80% or whatever the ratio is.
I forgot to get booooze again today. Well, not 'forgot' exactly -- was too lazy to face the extra traffic.
