Urrrg... 9:13 a.m. 2006-03-02 I confess, yesterday I used the office pencil sharpener to sharpen my eye liner pencil. Is that ghetto or what? I was ready to throw things at people yesterday at work. What is worse than being surrounded by hungry seagulls? I will tell you---it's being surrounded by annoying co-workers!! It's worse when the co-workers are your supervisors. My God, how many supervisors does a person really need anyway?! Each of them have different, tedious tasks for me to do, and none of them give it a second thought to think that I have other things to do than deal with their "little projects". Let me clarify that.. NO ONE knows exactly what I do. Sure, they think they know, but they have no idea. One of them even described one of his special projects a "treasure hunt". Give me a fricken break already!!! Your project involves going on a spreadsheet and typing in numbers for God's sake. I'm not Dora the Explorer, I don't need a fricken map! I think I am getting really bored with my job. True the job has it's good points, but....it's just getting way too boring. A part of me is tempted to do something really out of character. For instance, call in sick every few days like our receptionist over here. She gets away with murder, and none of the supervisors seem to bat an eyelash each time she calls in "sick". They know that it will be I or Bonnie or Maria to cover the desk, because we are "oh so dependable". I've collected all of the receptionists excuses throughout the years she's been here; some of them include the following: "My shoulder hurts." "I'm having a really heavy flow day," (I know that is gross..sorry) or, my personal favorite excuse of all time: "I woke up, got ready to leave this morning, got to the door, and felt sick." I know, I'm venting again, forgive me. I just noticed that the tip to my eyeliner pencil broke. Damm.. Back to the sharpener I go.. |
