And they pay me for what exactly?

HOLY FREAKIN CRAP!!!!!!! I am so sick of sitting at work, day after day, with nothing to DO! It is Friday and I've maybe done 5 hours of work all week. Do you know how long the day feels when you spend your whole day refreshing the WW message boards as your only source of stimulation? And then if I ask for things to do, it's all crap/busy work. I am just SO frustrated. I went to college, I got a master's degree, I passed the CPA exam. I can handle more than data entry in Excel, for goodness sake. I don't understand how people stay at this company for 10, 20, 30 years. I don't understand how they don't realize that their profitability problem could easily be helped if they didn't pay people good money to do nothing. I know I have it better than most people do, but I am not the only person in this situation here. This just makes me angry. I am intelligent and capable, and I am just getting dumber and more worn down by the day. I went from the extreme of being stressed all the time and never feeling like I could keep up, to having NOTHING to do. No challenge, no objectives, no goals, no progress, no development. NADA. I feel guilty for complaining so much, like, should I just be happy that I make a decent salary and just shut up about it??? I know many people would be happy to make what I make, and I am grateful that I am employable. It's just that it seems like taking this job was a mistake.

I just need to keep thinking about my interview next week. Although the stupid HR person EMAILS me back after I left her a voicemail (and I told her in the voicemail that I needed to discuss the timing of the interview...grrr..) and then says I'm confirming that we are meeting Tuesday, September 6th. Now I assume that she means Wednesday, September 6th, but we all know what assuming does. She is not responding my email and with the whole long weekend thing, if she's thinking Tuesday, it's gonna be a problem. She didn't tell me where to park, what floor to come to, or really much of anything. I am just so frustrated right now that I could scream. I really need to catch up on sleep this weekend. I feel like I am going to explode today.
