one of my coworkers said that I give off a really strong 'I don't give a single shit" vibe lately.

[wombat]

Sorry guys, but today I really needed to give The Mayor a thousand cans for that.

Wait, don't you people have a holiday today?  Are you complaining on a day off?  If so, it's fuck you Monday for me.  From my desk.  At work.

[wombat]

I am at my day job today, and I ordered lunch and it was 12 dollars instead of 8 dollars because no lunch specials on the holiday and they didn't tell me that till I picked it up and had to pay for it. So the holiday is WORSE than useless.

Then I have to go home and write an article, and respond to the disaster area that is the edits on my book. Or else spend the rest of the afternoon gnashing my teeth and rending my garments about these tasks until I do them tomorrow.  No day off for me.

AT LAST!  VALIDATION!

I would like to register a formal complaint that, as a mostly-stay-at-home mom, a holiday for everyone else = more work for me. Especially since today is the first day since last Thursday that I've felt good enough to care that my house is a disaster.

The government is closed but only 30% of companies give the day off (up from 15% when the holiday started in the mid-80s). My work didn't give it off until a couple years ago when a bunch of people basically called HR racist. It's the only holiday where we don't close early the (Fri)day before though.

Someone is stinking drunk with power.

And one from me.

This reminds me the other thing I meant to post in this thread:

.... finally understand WHY WRITERS DRINK.

Today. Man, it's just like college. fuck*ng procrastinator, is what I am. HEY ME, you're not going to improve your situation spending half your day off streaming Da Vinci's Inquest on Netflix, or downloading music, or doing whatever it is you do.

Anyway, just frustrated. Hating work dreading some exams and having difficulty knowing what to do next.

Edit: Oh yeah, got backed into in a parking lot Friday night, and the fucker takes off! Got his plates and descriptions and all that and fuck yes I filed a report. Thing that sucks for him is that I'm a reasonable dude, I don't give two fucks about a few scrapes on my car so if the damage was minor enough (and it was) I most likely would have just said fuck it (unless the guy was a total douche, which seems likely) but he drove off! I don't want to cause trouble for other reasonable dudes if it can be avoided, but fuck THIS guy.

...get a police escort to my daughter's preschool, thanks to a hard-ass suburban cop and a set of expired tags on my minivan.

He was nice enough to follow me to the school so she wouldn't be late, but when I got back to the car after taking her inside he was standing there with a citation for $168 and a court date.

Fuck.

You're just having a stellar week, huh?

[jay-ell]

Did I mention the tags have only been expired for three days?

[wombat]

So that's like 50 dollars a day.

Must be nice to be a cop in a place where there is so little crime that you can take the time to notice the dates on people's tags.
