Hey, how’s that temp job going?
Why, thanks for asking! Here’s a picture:
So what are you looking at? (n no, ah am nawt werkin fer tha US Postal Service. Ahm in an office that only gits used about one week outta tha month, so is also used fer mail overflow)
Well, the large stack of papers is what is left to be entered (notice – ah haven’t even finished tha first of tha two rubber-banded stacks, which ahm pretty sure is smallah then tha second one). Tha small stack of papers is how many pages ah gawt through TODAY. Ah don’t count (it would take too much precious time), but if ah gae supah-dupah fast, ah ken finish a page in about 9 or 10 minutes. Howevah, that kinda pace is hard ta keep, so ah think ah prolly average more like a page every 15 minutes, breaks excluded. Ah especially git thrown off when somethin gaes wrong….sometimes tha info in tha system doesn’t match up, which throws me for a loop n ah hafta restart. Sometimes, tha member has been merged w. anutha ID, which ken throw me fer two er as many as three loops (each time requiring a restart). N sometimes my hand slips (usually nawt requiring a restart.)
Tis tha season fer tedious data entry! Jingle those bells!
