I'm not a big movie-goer, but...
I am surprised that The Golden Compass beat both Transformers and Pirates: AWE for visual effects. Seriously?
Seriously?
(Edit: and The Bourne Ultimatum won both sound editing and sound mixing. This also surprises me! Most of the other categories haven't surprised me, either because I agree or because I haven't seen enough of the nominees to have any real opinion, but whatever. Yes, I am aware that all three of these confusing-to-me wins are categories Transformers was nominated for. No, I don't think Transformers should have won everything. My parents are surprised, too. Though perhaps Bourne won so much because it's the third and there won't be any more and they need to recognize it or ... something.)
New subject! Work's about to become even worse. Yesterday was the last day for one of our long-time employees. She quit because of the idiocy our manager displays. I've been convinced for a while that, as soon as we lost one person, others would begin to follow. Today, two others were discussing leaving, as well. One of them has a second job all ready, and the other's gone part time, anyway. I know at least one other person had to get a second job after being refused enough hours.
I used to really like my job, but since the change, I've begun to hate it. If too many of them leave, I'll probably follow. Sometimes I think the only thing that really keeps me going back in again is the knowledge that I will, hopefully, be out of there by the end of the year, anyway. ONLY TEN MORE MONTHS.
She's destroying the department.
