Ok, let me see if I got this right. You want me to do the specialized work that you were too lazy to learn how to do. Which is fine, that I don’t mind. I offered to teach you months ago and neither of you were interested. So why do you want me to explain everything, hold your hands and make you feel like you are part of the process? You still don’t have the discipline to learn the formulas. Just let me do the work and take direction when you are needed. Today I wasted 20% of my day with that touchy feely crap when we could have been kicking back enjoying a job well done.

Explaining things you refuse to learn is what is making me want to strangle the two of you. Your inevitable lame wordless apologies tomorrow will work. Probably in the form of Starbucks or a sandwich. GRRRRRRRR.

I love you guys.

I quit my job before going to Oregon Friday before last.

I got too pissed off working for a boss who doesn't understand the difference between enabling and empowering, who will take the side of the residents over her staff every time, who has taken a thriving homeless shelter and, in less than 8 months, made it a blight on the Missoula area Community of Caring, and who is in all actuality a bored trophy wife searching for some sort of legitimacy to her status and is completely unqualified for her position, which I'm pretty sure she got becuase she either paid off the Board of Directors, or made use of her skills of Oral Sex.

*fumes*

*fumes with Matt*

Should I tell her she'd stop getting bronchitis if she freaking quit smoking?

Yes

You might even go as far as telling her that if she stops smoking now, she'll still decrease her risk of getting lung cancer - & save money.

Yeah, but that's too easy. She needs some sort of crisis in her life. How else would she be able to get people to feel bad for her?

easy Gina...she could get pregnant, pop out a kid and keep it sick all the time...

y'know...Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy


ETA: Guess even I'm angry at J now!

Okay, I'm going to be really, really mean right now. Bear with me.

Nelly, she already did that. Sort of. She was sick for three weeks right when I got hired (my first day was 'Can you start tomorrow? J is sick.') She was pregnant and had a miscarriage. Or so she told everyone. I found out during the ex-fiance wars of this spring that she really had an abortion.

I really hope my stupid company doesn't go out of business, but honestly, they deserve it because they were pretty much stealing from their customers.

Okay, this probably isn't really a rant as such...

But I wish I didn't have to move office. I was unhappy at my office for a long time & tried to be away on the days the other two were around, & during all that time nothing happened & nobody bothered to re-think seating arrangements. Now I've started feeling okay in my office & I'd like to stay there, & now I'll have to move down the corridor to the noisy area & share with a new person who's nice but ... slow. I know it's not her fault, but it means you have to explain everything 50 times & the next day she'll come back with exactly the same question again, & I just don't have the time (or patience) for that. I hope I'll acquire it & learn to deal with her, else it's going to be tough for both of us.

*hugs for Cassi and Phoenix*

Here again.

What the hell is wrong with her?? She has been begging the Boss to have a staff meeting all summer long. He is finally able to schedule one for this morning, and the freaking idiot isn't going to be here. I called her to wake her up (why I should have to do that is beyond me,) and she said to have the meeting without her.
You're not sick, you're just hung over, bitch! Don't go out drinking the night before if it means you're not going to be able to drag your ass to work in the morning!!
I am so pissed off I can't even type correctly.

*pelts Gina's boss with rotten tomatoes*

It's more J than my boss, Beezer. He did say (at the meeting we had without J) that he'd try to get me up to 40 hours a week. Full time would be nice.

When I told him that she wasn't coming I did mention she didn't give a reason why. Maybe he'll think about that.
He told me his wife is taking over more of the front desk management stuff because her teaching schedule for the fall is lighter than his. I'm hoping she'll put up with less of J's crap than he does.

It was just because I knew pelting
J wouldn't do anything.


Oooh.....I have high hopes for the wife taking a hand though.

Heh. That is true, Beezer.

I'm in two minds about Wife taking a bit of control. I'm not sure if she likes me, for one. And whenever she has a complaint about how I do things at the desk, she always goes through J instead of telling me directly. That bothers me.
But, if she makes J take some responsibility, it'll be a good thing.

I really hope Boss wasn't talking out of his ass when he said he'd try to get me up to 40 hours a week. I could really used the money.

Ignore this. I don't like complainers, but this is too much not to say anything about.

One of my coworkers calls me to ask if I said I would be gone for two weeks or three weeks. She wants to go back to Florida at the end of the month, but management won't give her the time off because we're too short-staffed right now.

She called to ask me if I could cover her shifts.

There are a bunch of things I could rant about here, but that's enough I think.

Can I hit her nattie? Please?

*hugs Nattie*
