I am so ready to leave my job. I only have 2 days of work left and I am wondering how I am going to last that long. I really love my co-workers and the work is fine, but I have a sneaky suspicion that my boss is displeased that I am leaving, and that he's taking it out on me.
First, there was what I like to call the Pajama Debaucle of '09... see previous blogs for more info. The short version is that I wore a super cute outfit to work, he deemed it inappropriate, but instead of sending me home to change, he made jokes about my outfit looking like pajamas and then proceeded to beat these hilarious jokes into the ground for the rest of the day. The next day I wore a button up shirt and tried to button it up to my neck out of spite but stupid Banana Republic is too fashion conscious to allow for that. No buttons went up that high.
Next there was the Spanish class that never was. I take a one hour Conversational Spanish class once a week which I really look forward to every Thursday. A lot of our staff is out this week so I was pulled from the class to cover the lab during the one hour time slot. I was really bummed out but I am leaving in 2 days so I understood the decision. When I mentioned it to Robin, she volunteered to take my spot in the lab so I could attend class. I was really excited until my boss decided to nix that idea. He said he was going to go ask Robin about switching with me, but in reality he told her that I was staying in the lab. Great.
So I sat here in the lab for one hour and helped 3 customers. And played sudoku. It was a roaring good time. Now I know why people in isolation go insane.
Now it's Friday and I have been scheduled to work in the lab all day. That's the third strike. Actually he doesn't make the schedules but it's easier for me to blame him. So RARRR!
There have been so many terrible, terrible customers filtering in and out of this place over the last week but I just can't seem to keep track of them all. Mostly a lot of people who know how to read when it's convenient for them and never any other time. And people who are mad about getting money for free. What's that about? It's wack.
In other news, I am moving in one week! I am really excited about moving and starting law school. I have started packing up my winter clothes and some of my non-perishable foods, but I still have a long way to go.
Dennis steam-cleaned one of the rooms of the apartment last night and it smells like lavender now. Rad. Lavender smells waaaay better than cat pee... which is what it used to smell like, because my cat peed in my roommate's closet (oops, ok I will take credit for that one) and he didn't clean it up for 2 weeks (that one is alllll him). How he managed to live with the stench is beyond me, he must be a filthy creature himself.
I am going to take a break on this blog and start writing on my other super secret blog. I am in the makings of possibly maybe writing a book so I need to get crackin. I can't really divulge any more info about the book but I will keep this blog updated if anything big happens. We'll see. Fingers crossed!
