Bleh

So, I'm sitting at work, waiting for stuff to be printed so I can do something... Not fun! I'd much rather be, well not here to be honest, but it is what it is. Double time and a half isn't sounding to bad, but at the price of not spending time w/the boyfriend whom I never get to spend kid-less time with. Also, the concert he will be attending, I would very much like to see. Hopefully, shit doesn't hit the fan here, and I'll be able to see at least a bit of it... We will see! I'm staying optimistic..... for now. Then again, lets say I do get out on time, there is always, driving there and not getting lost, because me being the freaking amazing person that I am, let the GPS battery die.... The cord is in my car, which is normally a good thing, but I'm not in my car today, so that equals not so good.

Get to the point!

Ok, when telling me something, is it possible to leave out:

1) all the insignificant details that really pertain to nothing (notice the 'pertain to nothing' therefor I DO NOT CARE!)
2) a five minute long explination as to why you are doing what you are doing (I don't really care why, just tell me what you need from me and I'll do it)
3) anything not pertaining to the situation, (I don't know why, but this always comes up)

SHUT UP! I don't care that you are happy cause of something ridonkulous. I mean really. Ahhhhhh...

On another side to this, if I enjoy talking to you, then the above can me ignored, but for anyone else... refer to the above.

Tattle-tale

So why do we have to act like we are in 2nd grade again? If I wanted to act like I'm still in elementary school, I would have became a teacher. (none of the following has happened to me, it's all observations of my surrondings.)

I'm so sick of people around here telling on people for the dumbest stuff. Most of the time people are joking around, you don't have to run to their manager because they were joking about something.

Or, treating someone with the same respect that has alwasy been given to them, then have them run to there bestest bud, aka the supervisor, feed them a bunch of lies, then get called out on it and told you are stabbing them in the back? WTF is that? Most of these people are so sketchy, and that means supervisors and management. I'm done with it.

I'm not going to play your stupid highschool games. I'm coming in, doing my shit, and leaving. Don't expect anything extra out of me. I'm not getting paid for my extra, so you can for get even getting it!

Just don't...

It irks me when someone tells me to 'pray for (insert name here)' I know you mean well, but just don't. It's not because I don't feel for said person, but, yea, I don't know how to explain it, it just irritates me.

On a second note, I'm going to be pissed if it rains, and it's looking like it will, because I had outside plans tonight. GRRRR!

Damn, I'm good...

So, can we please take a breath and do a little research before spazing out? I mean really? I had the shit done this morning, that's how good I am. Had you looked in the computer, you would have seen that, but instead you jumped to conclusions, and asked all the people who wouldn't have known about the situation. That makes no sense. I guess this person is to the point, or past it for that matter, that you have no common sense, due to being so smart. No, please do not take that as a compliment, me saying your smart. Because once you reach that point, I'll still consider you an idiot. I's say my equation is: fairly smart + common sense = awsomeness. These I can't stand though: Too smart - common sense = idiot. Not smart - common sense = village idiot.
Thank you!

Horrid Spelling

I will apologize, I would say before hand, but I'm 40 posts in, so yea... Anyway, I am a horrible speller, and I always think about that whilst typing, but forget by the end of the post and I forget to check my spelling.... Oh well, sound it out if you can't understand, I'm normally only a letter or two off. DEAL WITH IT!

WalCreature Cont....

So I would love to find out where some of these people shop.

Offense: Flower print capris, (multiple pairs of the same print against white, the print color is varying) With a shirt that matches the color of the print. Same outfit two days in a row, just different colors. I'm not sure where you buy outfits that awsomely bad. Well, if you were like 70, they would be perfectly acceptable for you retirement in Florida, but your in your 40's in Ohio.

Offense: Apparently I missed the memo for Abhorently Ugly Skirt Day (AUSD). I'm not talking 1 or 2, it seems that half the office is wearing extrememly ugly skirts.

Stupid sick people!

Why do people come into work sick? I don't get it. Ok, a cough, cold, something minor, that's fine, I realize that you can't take a day off everytime you have a sniffle, but when you are running a fever, and it's company policy to write anyone up that knowingly comes to work with a fever, why on earth would you come to work with a fever? Are you trying to infect the rest of us? I mean really? I don't want to get sick, and by the way, to top it off, you have to walk by my desk to get to yours there for crop dusting me with your germs. Ewww... I really wish managers would do there job and what not, I know that's way too much to ask to enforce policy. Whatever! If I get sick, which I usually don't, but if I do, I'm gonna be PISSED!

Irritating Tidbit..

So, I'm in the bathroom at work, and we have the soap dispensers that give you the foam soap. Anyways, so I use like one pump, cause with water that's really all you need. The chick (which happens to be 4" fluffy bangs girl), washing her hands next to me pumps it four times, starts washing here hands in the water, then pumps it two more times. How dirty do you think you are that you need half the dispensers worth or soap foam? I don't get it. Seriously, what is six pumps going to accomplish that one pump can't? Antibacterial works the same whether you slather your whole body in it or you like the recommended amount.... Whatever, it's just weird, that's all.

Continuation of F**K...

So, I come in on Monday and no one says a single word to me about the whole event... Which I found odd, but then Tuesday rolls around, and still nothing... I don't know how I feel about this. I mean I don't want to get in trouble, but I don't like it un-resolved..... Hmmm....

My last name...

So, since I have no bothers, and my son has his father's last name... I'm the last of my last name in the line.... I mean I have cousins and what not, but it's just not the same. I actually feel kind of guilty, like I should have give the little guy my last name... I dunno man, I like my last name, It just doesn't feel right to let it die out!

This movie is AMAZING!

So, if you have ever worked in an office, whether it be for one day or years (both of which seem like eternity), then you MUST watch the movie Office Space if you have not done so already. It is the epitome of what working in an office will do to you. I'm sure there are fun offices out there, like the ones that let you bring your dogs to work, or hell even let you wear jeans (which I don't understand why that matters if you never see the consumer of your products, but I'll save that for another post.) I don't know, I'm just saying that the movie it totally relate able, as well as Dane Cook's sketch about the crazy co-worker. Anyway, the following quote from Office Space is pretty much summing up my whole 'in an office' work experience. I have LOVED my jobs outside of an office, but they don't pay as well and I am greedy apparently.... lol Without further adieu:

Quote #1:
Peter Gibbons: The thing is, Bob, it's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.
Bob Porter: Don't... don't care?
Peter Gibbons: It's a problem of motivation, all right? Now if I work my ass off and Initech ships a few extra units, I don't see another dime, so where's the motivation? And here's something else, Bob: I have eight different bosses right now.
Bob Slydell: I beg your pardon?
Peter Gibbons: Eight bosses.
Bob Slydell: Eight?
Peter Gibbons: Eight, Bob. So that means that when I make a mistake, I have eight different people coming by to tell me about it. That's my only real motivation is not to be hassled, that and the fear of losing my job. But you know, Bob, that will only make someone work just hard enough not to get fired.

Quote #2:
Peter Gibbons: Yeah, I just stare at my desk; but it looks like I'm working. I do that for probably another hour after lunch, too. I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work.

More quotes, these are not from Office Space.

Quotes from The Office:
Jim Halpert: Because right now, this is a job. If I advance any higher, this would be my career. And if this were my career, I'd have to throw myself in front of a train.


Michael Scott: Last week I would've given a kidney to anyone in this office. I would've reached right into my stomach and pulled it out for them. But now, no. I don't have the relationship with these people that I thought I did. I hope they ask, so they can hear me say, "Uh, no, I only give my organs to my real friends. Go get yourself a monkey kidney."

F**K!!!!!!!!

I'm so fucking sick and tired of nothing in the workplace being clearcut. Can I have a simple don't do this, do that. No, every single thing having a fucking grey area, and if you fall in the grey area you get in trouble even though you were never trained in said area. It's like trial by fire. Your right when you do it the same way for a year, but then the next time you do it you get reemed. What the FUCK! It makes no sense at all. I've never seen one single policy and fucking procedure. NOTHING! How can I possibly get in trouble for something I was A)never trained on, B) no real rules set upon the situation, C)oh wait, I forgot it depends on the mood of management as to how anythign is changed or corrosponded to employees. FUCK. That's all I feel like saying at the moment, FUCK! It sucks when before noon on a Saturday you know you are gonna get your ass chewed off on Monday morning. ANd on top of it, I got someone else in trouble, which is really what upsets me more than anything. I really like said person, and she is the last person I wanted to get in trouble, not that I want to get anyone in trouble, cause that's just not me! All because I did something, that any other day is fine. So I'm sure the dumbasses running the place will put in some stupid thing that will fuck over everyone, because I was never told/trained/instructed in any way, about the thing in which I did, which with every other instance that it has happend, I did it correctly, and I did it the same way this time!

Awkward!

Crying people make me feel very awkward.... So do babies, well and crying babies... I dunno... I'm weird, I guess, but I just can't deal with people crying, it makes me want to be mean to them! My son is different, but everyone else... yea...

Weird????

So, I'm not a religous person, at all. I'm not going any further into my views on that. Anywho... I love crosses. I know it's weird, but I just think they are so pretty! I really like the gothic looking and celtic crosses. I think it's kind of weird that I have nothing to do with religion, but I really like crosses. You'll have that I guess.

Random thoughts...

So, it always amazes me how rude people are to their exes. Hello, you once loved that person. I understand if things went bad feeling bitter, or hurt, but I don't know, I just don't get it. Why be so nasty?

On a completely different train of thought, I had someone ask me today, who has been working with the same computer system for years, (no, I'm not exaggerating), ask me how to get ont he internet. Yes, this really did happen. So I nicely explaind to type in whatever search engine you want in the 'address' bar. To which the reply was, "Then what?". ????? What do you mean, then what? Hit the 'enter' button. It's not your first time on a computer you idiot, quit pretending to be stupid, I'm not sure what you can gain from acting retarded, but I mean really, come on!

Irritating FB posts

Honeslty, this may sound heartless, but some people's FaceBook posts drive me insane. I mean really.
*It is not necissary to post "I love my babies" one or more times a day, everyday. We get it already, you like being a mom, get over yourself.
*I don't care how connected you are with God. That's cool and all, I don't care what your beliefs are, but I don't need to hear about it repetedly.
*All pictures are fine. Don't take hundreds, yes I mean hundreds, of pictures of yourself. I'm as guilty as the next of taking pics of myself for my profile, but you have to draw the line somewhere, I don't care how hot you think you are ladies, no one wants to see another strategically placed boob shot. As for the fellows, I haven't come across many that do that, but if you have nice abs/pecks/back/arms... post as much as you want! LOL.
*I understand that you love your significant other, but please, quit getting so ooey, gooey, mushy on us. It makes me want to barf. True, I may be a bit jelous, but even with that some of you go into excess, "I love my husband/wife" I'm totally ok with, but any more details than that... BARF!!!!

I'm sure there is more, but I just can't think of more at the moment!

Tattoo Ideas....

I'm very random in my thoughts today, here are my most recent tattoo ideas.

I would like these three quotes/sayings, just not sure about placement yet.

"We did not hope for the same things, but we all hoped."
Omnia vincint Amour (latin for; Love conquers all)
Aequitas (latin for; justice)

I really want a horse, horseshoe, I'm not sure, something to do with horses because I've been so involved with them for so long.

Are you SERIOUS?

Ok I will lead with the quote that I actually heard today: (This was in regards to a conversation about Buddhists, the religion, not the code name) "Black people don't come to shows, no way a Buddhist would. So, you have a thing for guys in turbans?"

The quote I would have loved to follow that with, "I am so smart that I make smart people feel retarded."

To get the facts strait about the first quote that was actually said to me, (I was too nice to be a bitch about it in person, so I figured I'd clear it up on here.)
First off, Buddhists are not a race of people, it's a religion, and anyone can be a Buddhist, so WTF are you talking about.
Secondly, Buddhists don't wear turbans. Honeslty I'm not sure if a turban is a religous thing, or like it's f'ing hot and sunny in the desert thing. Either way, they have nothing to do with Buddhism.

WalCreature cont...

Yet another offense. Apart from the highwaters, another glorious fashion here is the pants that come just under the boobs.... Oh, yea, that's a great one, especially when they are colored pants. It's like the horrid '80s all over again... the only thing missing is the perm and bangs, which by the way, some people here still have. Your bangs should not be fluffed up 4 inches... it's just not right and all that hairspray is horrible for the enviroment, so save the ozone and quit fluffing your hair! Also, well, if you have curly hair, and you want it short, that's fine, but don't make it look like a Mentally Handicapped persons hair. I'm not making fun of the handicapped in any way, I'm just saying if your not hadicapped, lets try not to look like you are.

Road Rage

So people cannont drive, which I knew before, this morning just reminded me of it! So it's raining, at the time, very light, if at all. The stupid girl in front of me is going 35mph. Now, we are in a 55mph zone... That was the first WTF that came out of my mouth. The second was caused by the fact that everytime a car passed her going the opposite direction, she quite literally SLAMMED on her breaks. There is no need for that. Thirdly (is that even a word?),anywho, the road I happened to be on had some curves in it, but she would slam on her breaks about a half a mile before reaching the curve... That is not nescissary! Drive sensible, and for the most part you won't have to slam on your breaks! People are STUPID!!!!! And if your going to drive like a flipping ri-tard, don't buy an SS of any model, obviously your not going to drive over 40mph, what's the point in having a faster engine?

So far, so good....

Well, no pop today! Go me!

On another note, I find it extrememly amusing the views people have on tattoos. I have tattoos, I like tattoos, I plan to get more tattoos. I also understand that they just aren't for some people. I would never try to push a tattoo on anyone. In that respect, I feel that trying to convince me how horrible they are is not your job, you won't change my mind. I don't try to change your mind, have some respect and cease in trying to change mine! I respect the fact that not everyone likes them, unfortunately most are forced to cover them up for work, which I feel is not right. I think that as long as it's not offensive, (no a tattoo in general should not be considered offensive) by offensive I mean like sexually explicit, extreme violence, things like that. If I don't ever see a customer, why can't I show my tattoo? Even with cutomers I don't get what the big deal is, once again as long as it's not offensive. I don't know.... I just think people freak out over them way too much is the point I'm trying to make. Tattoos are no more distraction the fashion, shoes, hair cuts/color. It's just an extension of that person.

Buddhism??? For real?

So it has come to my attention recently that Swingers are calling themselves Buddhists. No, to my understanding these people are not Buddhists in any way, they just call what they do Buddhism. How random is that? I mean if I was going to be a Swinger, then I would refer to myself as one. I can tell you that what I would not do, I would not refer to myself as a random religion as a code name. I feel that actual Buddhist would not really care for that one bit... I'm not one, but it just doesn't seem right. I don't know, I am going to look further into this because it intrigues me... I'll have an update at some point and time.

I think I'm gonna do it!

So, as many times as I've said this, I think I'm going to give up pop, for real this time. I've found other caffiene sources, so I think I'll be fine. I do really enjoy pop, but hey I don't really need it, so I'm gonna try and quit it! Woo Hoo! lol, my other main reason being the caffiene is taken care of. Wooty Woot! Ok, in all honesty, I'm not excited, but as long as I don't get a caffiene withdrawl headache, I'm happy. No headache = happy me! lol.

WalCreature cont...

So I was keeping a number by the offense, but there are too many to list, no numbers anymore!

Offense; The Hawaiian Shirt. 1) we work in an office, not the beach, cabana, Hawaiian themed eatery or a bar b que. There for don't wear the shirt. Why does one even own a shirt like that. The sad thing is, like 3 people had those types of shirts on in the same day, not just one random...

Offense; High Waters. Your an adult, your parent shouldn't be buying your clothes, how about this, try on your clothes before buying them, or if they are old clothes, oh, I don't know, look at the mirror, look down at your feet, ok, now can you see your socks while standing? If you can, find another pair of pants and put those in the Good Will pile... come on!

So much for that...

So, I know I said that I wasn't going to let a certain person get to me anymore, but it's really hard to keep up with that when I am constantly having to fix said person's eff ups, and I get yelled at and in trouble for said persons shit! It's not fair and I really could give a rats ass now. My eye has been twitching on and off for a week now! Not bad enough for other people to notice, but I can feel it.... WTF!!!! Like I'm developing a nervous freaking tick from dealing with this person! My favorite quote of the moment, Wesley from Wanted; "Want to hear something sad? I use an ergonomic keyboard to keep my repetitive stress injury in check. Just the fact that I repeat something enough that it causes me stress is fucking sad."

Friday, May 7, 2010

Hmmm...

I wish things were more clear cut. Anywho, I really really want to go Ireland! Just my random thought of the day. My random phrase of the day, "Cherry blossom pink."

Tuesday, May 4, 2010

WTF?

I hate customer service, just throwing that out there. You try to help someone out, and they yell at you... Mental note, don't try. And by the way, I'm not trying to change what you are supposed to be doing, I'm just updating you as to what I am being told.

WalCreatures

I feel that if everyone I share the office with went to Walmart, about 70% are dressed 'well' enough to be on www.peopleofwalmart.com. Seriously. It's kinda sad. I'm not saying that I am the best dressed person around, but I feel that I set the bar pretty high here, and that isn't saying much. I don't feel that I should post pics of people, although I do not love my job, I wish to keep it, but I'll explain some outfits....

We will start with offense #1, Think Pink,(man I wish I had pics)
Imagine if you will, a woman with baby pink, polyester, high-water, elasticized waist pants. To continue our way up, a plain pepto bismal pink shirt is added. We now have a magenta, crocheted button up sweater contraption over the shirt. To top it all off, we go to footwear. Now with the highwaters, whether sitting or standing, the socks are fully visable. They are baby pink socks, with white cats on them, with light brown shoes... I'm not really sure how to explain the shoes, so I'll stop at brown.
Enjoy.

Offense #2 Lady Liberty (different person than the Pink Lady)
Red capri's with Jesus sandles. (sorry if that's offense, but I don't know how to explain it). White button up shirt. with a lovely Blue sweater, with large white stars, and a red trim around the bottom. Patriotic, yes, but come one, if your not an old lady, you should no be wearing 'themed'sweaters. Just throwing that out there.
