Delight and delirium
Mar. 15th, 2004 08:45 pmBad things:
- DumAss fucked up again, in a little way, and has gotten himself one step closer to being fired. I do not want to do his work if he gets himself kicked to the curb before a back-up is trained, but I am the only other person close to being qualified and able.
- I started getting flushed around noon and I am still having dizzy spells.
- There was a huge pile of customer feedback forms, which means I am going to spend the rest of my week explaining to the Big Boss that we, in customer service, are not all fuck-ups, shipping is not made up just of lazy bastards, a single product return does not mean that we need to panic about the whole lot, and everything really is fine and I have everything under control.
- Poor Shannon, my receptionist and friend, went home early today due to continued illness.
Good things:
- Beautiful pink blossoms on the trees, the scent of spring flowers, petal confetti on the grass and the sidewalk.
- My internet connection is working again! Mark and Mike from Shaw were very helpful.
- The Big Boss was out of the office again today, to my surprise/delight/amazement.
- Russ keeps cuddling and hugging me.
- The cats love the new cat tree, which we got yesterday on special for $39.96, when it is regular $249.99.
- Amaretto lattes for dessert.
- My ops meeting minutes were very nearly perfect.
- I got the laundry all put away.
- The bank informed me that I deposited more cash into my account then what I told the ATM, so I have $40 more then I thought!
- Shannon and I drove up to Uprisings bakery for lunch, which was really nice.
- My cat costume is pretty much done for the next Sin City, though I may still choose to make a tail for it at some point.
I think that's a good summary of today and a few other recent events.
