Impatient

Soooo... Hell week is finally over! I deem it Hell week for multiple reasons, but being understaffed and expected to train someone, and keep up with all 3 jobs that I as one person was doing is a little much. I've decided that I am simply not cut out to be a trainer of any type. I am way too easily irritated for that. Nothing against the person I was training, she was fine, but damn, I have no freaking pacience at all. In my mind you should just understand what I'm saying... I realize, that is not always the case, but I like my bubble world, and my bubble should not be popped. No interesting head adornments this week though, so who know what Halloween has in store.
On the same not as training/understaffing... If you are aware that the only other person to answer phone calls is in the middle of training someone, how about PICK UP THE FUCKING PHONE YOURSELF! You get paid more than double what I make, I think you can answer a damn phone call... just saying. I'm not your assitant and or secratary, so I don't really know what you expected, but unless you want to hire me as a personal assistant, which by the way, I don't think you could possibly pay me enough to put up with you, yea... You have two hands, and a phone at your desk, try ANSWERING it when it rings dumbass!

A crown, really?

So, I wish I could include a picture of this, but unfortunately I don't think it's appropriate. Anywho... here is the story:

So it's appreciation week in my career field, we had a meeting, every one in my department got recognized and and to add a fun spin, they gave us all either glow in the dark wands, or little kid crowns. Now, we donned them for the meeting, then discarded them at our desks when the meeting was over, all save one. One person kept their crown on their disheveld head all day... And drove home to show her parents (she's in her mid 40's by the way). Do you know how hard it is to take someone seriously and talk about work with a plastic crown with pink jewels on it askew on a mini-fro? Well, to answer that it VERY HARD. She was sooooooo proud. I just don't get it!
