Freaks and Creeps

Oh my god. I am having a good day and all today - the sun is shining, I had generic Lucky Charms this morning, my coffee was good... but the computer lab is trying to rain all up on my parade.

The creep from the street (TM) is always looking back over his shoulder and staring at GOD KNOWS WHAT. But he is always staring. I caught him staring at me today and I whipped my head around and caught him but he nonchalantly turned away so smoothly!!! I totally didn't even see his creepy gaze from across the room. So I stared back at him. Then he turned toward me like, oh hey, didn't see you there! And he waved. And I stared some more. I was trying to send evil thoughts his way, I think I did a good job. I tell you, this job is hardening me!!! }:O Rarrr!!

Now we have this lovely woman who comes in quite often, needing to send a myriad of faxes. I seem to get stuck helping her every single effing time. You would think I was her personal servant the way she barks orders at me... but for some reason she doesn't bother me as much as some of the others here. I think I have sent about 8 faxes out for her so far today. My lunch break starts in 20 minutes and I am counting down the seconds... 1200, 1199, 1198...


I have to explain to this woman at least three times that you don't have to make multiple copies to send faxes to multiple businesses. She keeps handing me papers saying, "I need 6 copies of this, because I'm sending it to 6 places." And I keep saying, "Look... see how the papers go in one side and come out the other? They come back to you. You don't need to make more than ONE copy." She looks at me weirdly but doesn't indicate acknowledgment nor skepticism.

Editor's Note: It got so busy in the lab today that I had to cut my post short until just now, almost 12 hours later. Lordy lordy.
