I wish your museum was around the corner from me. 'Museum object cleaner' sounds like the kind of soothing low-pressure job I could happily do right now, plus I wouldn't piss all the curators off.

Apparently I have to holepunch (by hand with the little hole-punch thing) all 800 of the cue-cards I just put together. If I get carpal-tunnel I'm suing.

Dear Stupid Shitheads,

Just because our group has gotten shuffled around and you have never heard of us before does not mean you can go and riffle through the boxes of our things and take what you like.

Also, give us our fucking monitors back you asswipes.

DEAR GENERAL MOTORS SUCKERS,

What do you mean I need to get my visum to Russia myself and I'm supposed to pretend I am just a tourist and I am for God's sake not supposed ot mention I am going with you?

a) Visa applications to Russia from here are a complex two week process. Do you think I have nothing better to do?

b) So what do you propose I do, interview Medwedew in my guise as a Viennese car dealer?

c) How do you propose I explain myself if I get caught out?


How about if you mouth about about organising your press trip you actually *organise* it? I've got enough to do without doing your job on top of mine.

I don't even have the energy to rant anymore.

I'm just done.

My only hope now is that I can hang in there long enough to finish BTSA in June so when I quit my credentials are clear.

Not technically work, but...
It's not your fucking night you douche. It's for the society. Take your finger out of your arse and start getting bands that pull in people. We should not have to close early again like last night. The bar seem to hate us anyway so yeah why not leave the soundcheck till the last minute, clear a room with the most boringly MOR band I've ever seen and the only thing you do right is tape up the fucking cables at the end of the night! Get your fucking act together or someone had better give us a techie who I can honestly say is more competent than me. GAAH!

I am very very tired of fixing my coworkers fuck-ups.
Also I am very very tired of reading their horrible spelling and grammar.
I have decided to use nearly perfect grammar in my cases and also to use big words whenever possible.
Seriously, "sagusted"?

Why oh WHY does my collegue feel the need to brag about her sex life to the rest of us??? Things I do not need to know about!
I don't care that she is going home to have sex with her new guy, after (apparently) dumping the last guy yesterday!

Oh god, she's changed the subject - to, and I quote "micro-penises", and the why thereof, and the finding of picture of the same on the internet.
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

A bastardisation of "suggested", I'd guess.
*sigh* Hate to say it, but I've seen worse from my fellow student of the English language. Much, much worse.

Sodding sodding sodding SODDING hell. I've been stitched up by an outside organisation, which is bad enough. But way way worse is that the circumstances look like I've stiched up my boss (who doesn't know me very well as we are relatively new to one another), which is just AWFUL. He's now having to do something he didn't want to on a day where I know he has no time at all spare, in circumstances he would not have chosen (and neither would I). I have to ring him tomorrow and try and explain that I would never willingly have put us both in the horribly awkward positions we now find ourself organisationally in (which is damaging to the organisation, too, and since I'm the sort of custodian of the organisation, I'm FURIOUS), but that I was not given crucial information, indeed not led to believe in any way that there was cruicial information available that pertained to this.

Sodding hell.

Can't be helped. What has to be done has to be done. You're a good employee and a good organiser and your boss will understand. It sucks, but it'll be over. Right?

Does it have to do with this meeting you're organising that's been causing trouble already?

Thank you, Noodles. No, that one imploded when the other group did something really stupid, thankfully without implicating us, so we are free to try again without the baggage.

This one - gah. Should've been easy but I should have realised this outside group would be more interested in their profile than the actual substance of the meeting. But I'm more concerned that my boss has been manoeuvred into something that's very very not helpful for him, and it is almost a secondary thing if I can convince him it was nothing to do with me and against my wishes, too. Said group is joining my (longer and longer) shit list.

Buggrit!

Well. He's the boss and a boss is like a goalie, they are there to catch the shots that snuck through the defense. it's a hard job but you couldn't stop the damage before it hit and you *will* be there to help.

Thank you - I hope he takes your attitude!

In the meantime, I have a shitload of damage control to do, and was supposed to be not-working today, taking kidlet across town to see his friend, with me seeing his mother and helping her out. And all three of them - kidlet, his friend, my friend - will be mightily pissed off because I'm going to have to spend the morning firefighting, with kidlet in front of the one-eyed babysitter.

(Bad Parent, Crummy Friend and Crap Employee! I know none of these are true, but it feels a bit like that.)

On the upside, I have successfully connected my new printer, so feel I've done something that works today...

ETA: have arranged for kidlet to spend afternoon with another local small friend - phew! But still feel crummy about other friend, although she's been very understanding.
