So I have to go straight into the old office. Where I will now just sit and read a book, as I'm sure the computer is gone by now, until my boss comes in. At which point I have to pack her goddamn office for her.

Never mind that I actually have stuff to do over at the new office, and that there's going to be an angry horde of professors and workmen there when we finally get there, and that the workmen will not be able to finish today because no one is there to let them in, oh no. Never mind that, as soon as the copier is delivered, I *need* to make a shitload of copies of very important things - grade rolls, expense reports that are borderline overdue, those AP letters, etc. No. She was too scatterbrained and lazy to pack her own office, so we have to do it for her.

We still don't have a fridge in the new building, and we cannot afford to go out to eat again (they should give us a bonus to cover that shit, as it's their fault!). So at noon, I'm going home for lunch.

I just need to try to manage my anger so I don't explode at the dumb bitch.

*sigh*

Tonight: errands with Mouse, as it's [livejournal.com profile] yendi's writing night. Tomorrow: the remainder of the errands, the Girl Scout meeting, and then I need to just sit on the couch and read a book straight through to decompress. Sunday: Final cleaning and stuff.

Wish me luck today....

*whimper* I just want to not work with complete morons....

Considering that most jobs reuqire interaction with humans that is a rather tall order....
Friday, August 2nd, 2002 05:20 am (UTC)
Too true. I hate humans. :(
Friday, August 2nd, 2002 05:52 am (UTC)
But at least humans love you. Think positive. Heh.

I've always said I'd work for love or candy if I could just work with people as smart as I am.

That's really not asking so much.

We need to go into business... you and me and Adam and Mouse and all...
Friday, August 2nd, 2002 06:55 am (UTC)
What sort of business?
Friday, August 2nd, 2002 08:06 am (UTC)
Apparently, something that will keep you all in love and candy. Or at least the candy.
Friday, August 2nd, 2002 09:33 am (UTC)
Well, both are important... :)

I have two bags of Hershey's Miniatures in the new office! I'm just waiting to fill the candy dish til the workmen leave. Leering at my rack is enough sugar for them.

Oooh... can I come work for you???

yeh!! comic shop!! i'd be into that!! ::poing!!::

speaking of which, are there any good comic shops in Atlanta? [i'm sure there must be at least one...]

Oh?
I didn't know you needed a tax write-off...

I have a friend that owns his own comic book store. He did stay in business when three other stores in the same district closed but he's been struggling the entire time.

You'd prefer incomplete morons?

I'm lucky at my current work. My immediate group and my manager are all stunningly competent. We even have competent QA people if you don't count the QA manager. We just can't go outside of that.
When you have to explain a scrollbar for the second time...

I once spent half an hour on the phone with my mom talking her through cutting and pasting.

::hugs:: she'll get hers. good luck...

oh, and don't forget to tell all the angry professors and workmen exactly who is to blame for you not being there. point her out if need be, especially to the workmen...
Friday, August 2nd, 2002 05:41 am (UTC)
Already planning on it. *scowl*

When's your interview?
Friday, August 2nd, 2002 05:48 am (UTC)
at 10, so i'm leaving the house in like 10 minutes to catch the bus...

::wibble::
Friday, August 2nd, 2002 05:46 am (UTC)
I love that idea. I'd probably do the same. It's her own damned fault.

*hugs for Shadesong* Hang in there, girl. Those idiots don't deserve you. I know about hating humanity, I do that too sometimes.
Friday, August 2nd, 2002 09:30 am (UTC)
I'm hangin' in... :) At least I'm appreciated by the people whose opinion matters to me, one of whom said to me today that "if {boss} would just let you into that workroom, it would be *done* already, it would probably have been done by lunch yesterday!"

Glad to hear that those people know what you're worth.
