well, it turns out that I did not get in trouble after all.. more of a slap on the hand stating "Don't do that anymore and you'll be just fine." But before that was clarified to me, two supervisors and one lead, their names are withheld because it makes it more dramatic, strongly encouraged me to file an application for the Lead spot. So, today I am going to spend time between hanging out with my girlfriend at her step-neices birthday party and the the hockey game I am going to tonight to have one of the supervisors help me make my application an award winning application. Now I understand that if someone else without any disciplinary actions apply they might get the job before me, but this is the job I have been wanting since the day I got hired. Besides I am willing to break out my bionic kneepads and even fore go the pay raise in order to prove to them I really want the job.
Please, if you can, or want, wish me luck. I really need the boost in my moral.. and Tier 1 really needs some leads that know what they are doing.

Volunteer...
What is a volunteer?
1. a person who voluntarily offers himself or herself for a service or undertaking.
2. a person who performs a service willingly and without pay.
Recently I volunteered my expertise to my supervisors to create a seating chart. My reward for this endevour? A six month extention on my services in Tier 1. Basically I got a write-up for being late from returning from my breaks while I worked on the seating charts. Now it is mostly my fault for not sending up exceptions, but I had to beg a supervisor to give me a day to work on the damn chart. So, at this time, I am officially telling management that if they want seating charts they can do the damn things themselves. I am getting punished for doing work related things during work related times and getting in trouble for it.
No more. I want away from Tier 1, away from the angry customers, away from the supervisors and leads that look at me with distain.
So, we'll see what happens over the next 6 months.
