Rotten Wednesday, Special Projects, Shelly's Shortfalls, The Girl I Don't Like, This Weekend's Plans, and Other Tidbits

I'm not sure WHY I didn't write about Wednesday sooner, because it was HORRIBLE!!! 

Wednesday started off with BAD HAIR.  I don't know WHAT I did with my hair piece, but it ended up being an AFRO with BANGS!  But I still went to work with it on since I was silently boycotting my hair place.  So why was I on my way to work and realized, while I was standing on the train, that I had my fleece on INSIDE OUT!!  I tried to play it cool, but no dice.  I couldn't hide the fact that I had a tag the size of a POST-IT on the back of my hair right below my AFRO and my pockets were flapping.  It was embarrassing.  Then I decided to make it look like I was hot and took it off completely.  My pride wouldn't let me put it back on.  THEN, I bent down to get my bag off the floor and the train jerked and I almost fell!! 

By the time I got to work, I was just ready to go back home.  i went to the cafeteria with some of my co-workers and I decided to get a fountain soda.  I needed some caffeine BAD!  Maybe waking up was what I needed to do.  So I get the soda and it's exploding out of the top, so I drip some all over the floor.  I hurry to pay for it, and get some napkins.  Lord forbid someone slips on it and busts their ass, it would be all my fault.  So I call myself being cute and just kinda "drop it like it's hot" near the different spills and wipe them up.  (my knees are killing me, but of course I'm acting like it's not a problem!)  I had like 5 different spills, but as I'm wiping the up, I keep turning around and noticing more soda there.  DUH!!  That's because I didn't put my soda down while I was wiping up the spills, so I kept spilling more and more!!  By the time I'm finished, I go and meet my co-workers at the table and like 2 of my buttons are lose, showing all my goodies!

Later that day, the strap to my body girdle pops and there's no way to fix it except to tie it in a knot.  So one of my co-worker's, Prissilla helps me.  But low and behold, the way it's tied has my necklace to my badge entwined in it.  And since Priss can't get the knot out, I have to cut it off.  I was just too-through with this day!  It was making me crazy!! 
_____________________________________________

Working with Lara again is a good and a bad thing.  She monopolizes my time with things that she could be doing herself.  But she either doesn't know how to do them or she doesn't WANT to do them herself.  She gets mad when she asks me something and I say the answer too loud.  So now she doesn't want anyone to HEAR that she doesn't know!?  I try to stay occupied away from the desk as often as i can.  Between  her and George, they keep tag teaming me with questions.  It's crazy.  I'm ready to quit already.  The other day, I found myself working 10 hour days because Lara wanted me to leave when she left.  Which was fine since I had more work to do anyway, but I been busting my but getting there at 7 and I know it's KILLING her to finally have to work her ACTUAL hours.  It's just crazy.
______________________________________________

Awww, man, I just found out the other day that sexy-ass Rob has finally gotten a start date for his new job so he's going to be leaving.  I told him I would buy him a drink just to see what he says and he said sure.  He said he would be giving me his contact information, just in case.  I was like - just in case what?  But that's okay, I'll make up a reason to call his FINE ass!! 

I was working on teaching a training class next week and he offered to help.  He also helped me set up a web conference for the other specialists.  He's been such a great help.  I keep joking about him making excuses to see me because I know how busy he is and he doesn't need to help me with all this, but he still does.  With my luck, he just might be gay!
______________________________________________

Some of the special projects I'm doing right now, have me working all kinds of crazy hours and doing all kinds of things.  I like working with the girls from the Head Office.  Well, most of them.  But I like seeing that they are human and not these GODS that everyone has made them out to be.  It was amazing to see how high of a pedistal their boss put them up on, just for us to find out that they are just like us and in even more of a chaotic office than we are. 

Shelly took it upon herself to put all of us on special projects.  I WAS working with Booshy, she finally came to grips with the fact that she's not on the team anymore.  Instead she's working with Lara and Lara is playing dumb every chance she gets because Booshy keeps trying to get her to do all the work!  That woman STILL boosts about making $98,000 a year, but STILL doesn't want to do any work.  Now she thinks that everybody is ganging up on her and that nobody wants to help her.  Whatever.  I'll help her....I'll help her find a good weave place because that piece she got for $180 is STILL BUSTED!!!
_______________________________________________

I'm going to tell you some problems that Shelly will have being our boss.  She already feels like she needs to be friends with everyone.  She can be aggressive at times, but that's only when she knows us.  So she's not saying ANYTHING to those HO girls.  (Wow, I did say HO didn't I???  I actually meant Head Office!!)

Okay, so last week, Trina had ended up calling in sick because she had been sick for two days.  So she ended up missing the last day of our so-called Teambuilding training and she had missed Thursday. Shelly had someone else (Liza) call her on the phone to find out if she was coming in on Friday.  She made Liza put her on speaker so that she could hear what she was saying.  What a set-up!!  That was totally uncalled for.  Since Shelly was not going to be in the office on Friday and neither was Liza, she dind't want me here by myself with George and she didn't want one of the HO girls to lead for her.  WTF!?!?  So you call someone who is sick to make them feel obligate to come into the office!?!?  WTF!??! I mean, if she was a better manager, she would have just let one of the HO girls do it and leave it at that.  But you decide to pressure someone else who's sick into coming in.  If I was Trina, I would have stayed my ass home and called in again the next day!

I have a feeling they not going to give Shelly that supervisor job permanently anyway because they don't like her bluntness.  She's a little too outspoken for not knowing what she's talking about.  And I don't think the Director likes that at all.
_________________________________________________

Okay, I don't know why, but I been trying to get this girl at work to like me.  I mean, I think she likes me and I just don't like her.  Maybe that's it.  Because people tell me I shut down whenever she comes around and that I don't talk to her.  So I've been trying to give her the benefit of the doubt by talking to her a little, but that hasn't worked.  So why am I pushing it?  I think I haven't given her a fair shot since what I don't like about her is just an "air" about her.  But after Friday, I'm not giving her no more shots. 

Thursday was went it was mentioned to me that I don't talk to her or even talk when she's around.  So later that day I spoke and we had a conversation about some special concoction that should help me loose weight.  But later that day, I spoke to her and she was a little stand-offish.  Granted, this girl (her name is Morgan), used to work with us before she got a job in the HO and apparently, she smelling herself now.  But whatever. 

On Friday, I saw Rick talking to her in the hall.  And I know she likes him, so I told him to come here and she looked real pissy when he came.  Whatever.  I told him that she don't like me and I don't like her, so he shouldn't even be talking to her.  (petty, I know, but still.... I was doing a lot of hatin' that day!)  I told him to watch how she acts when I speak to her.  I went over to where she was and said "Hey Morgan, how you feeling, sweetie?" and I touched her on the shoulder.  She said, "Excuse me, Kris.."  And she gave me this foul look and she wiped her shoulder off like I put dirt on her or something!  I just said, "oh okay" and walked off with Rick down the hall.  I went and told Priss what happened.  She was like, damn.   Even before friday, I was trying to make an effort to get to know that girl.  She used to rap my head up when I used to come down for visits from the old office.  She used to especially talk all day about Rick, but now it's like she don't even remember all that.  Whatever lady.  I don't even know why I spent that much time thinking about it.
________________________________________________

This weekend has been pretty busy already.  Friday was the only day we got to chill.  I was pissed because i had PAINT on my blouse.  I called myself being nosey and ran into a wall with wet paint on it.  We're having our offices renovated (AGAIN!!).  The HO girls must have complained enough to make them give us bigger cubicles.  That's okay, I'll take it.  But I still say - I don't live here, so whatever.  So, they ended up knocking a wall down and building up a smaller office, that they painted.  Once the workers left.  Priss and I went to check out the space and I ran RIGHT into the wet wall!!  It just hasn't been my week.  

On Saturday, Karl went to help one of his female friends with her computer and then he went to his parents house.  We had the Twins' skate party to go to at 1p.m., so needless to say, I was PISSED when Karl didn't come home by 12:30.  He KNEW we still had to get a present and he KNEW I wanted to be gone by at least 11:45 and he KNEW this when I called him at like 12:15.  WTF!??!  He hasn't mentioned that he doesn't like hanging out with my family, but you can tell.  Because he ALWAYS pulls these disappearing acts when it comes to that.  Understandably, he doesn't want to go, but I don't want to go either, so WTF?!!?  We should both just suck it up and go together. 

THEN, when he DOES come home it's 12:45 and we still need to get a gift.  So the first thing he says is, I think I can pay to get your nails done.  Now he knows I'm a little broke and we had JUST had an argument about money and my priorities, and he comes home and says something like that.  I was like, I can wait another week until I get paid to get my nails done.  So then he goes into this thing about how rent is due on the 5th and I get paid again on the 7th.  I was like, DAMN, that's what I was saying the other day when I asked for money.  WTF?!?!  NOW that comes in handy for HIM because he knows I'm pissed!!  I just said, whatever, we can go right after the party.  (I'm WAY to easy!)

_____________________________________________

The party was fun.  Sam and Felicia finally tried to skate by themselves instead of cracking my corns all day with their stoppers.  I was mad because CC took Sam out onto the floor and just left her there and they have a firm rule about being on the floor without skates, so I couldn't get her.  My cousin's sis-in-law tried to help get her back. 

Karl and Daniel held up the wall the whole time.  Ray and I ended up doing the Cha-Cha slide and the Cupid Shuffle while everyone else almost busted their asses trying to do it on skates! 

Afterwards we came home and had pizza.  Felicia and Jason went back over Josh's house until tomorrow morning.

Our whole family has decided to surprise my grandfather by showing up at church tomorrow.  Then we are all going to a Japanese restaurant to celebrate his 75th birthday.  I'm excited, but I don't have anything to wear.  So I'm working on that right now.  I don't know if Karl really wants to go, but he's going anyway.  Aunt Carla was tallying up everyone's tab for dinner and my family's tab is $88.  I was like DAMN for one meal!?!?  But my grandfather is totally worth it!

I'm kinda hoping not to be out all day tomorrow.  I really want to do some cleaning and some prep for Monday.  I need to go to the HO's new employee orientation and I need to be well rested for that since they already told me it's going to be boring.

___________________________________________

On a final note, Karl and I have been fighting a lot lately.  I'm not sure what the deal is with me or with him or what, but it's been constant bickering.  We're good now.  But I can't believe we started arguing over me getting my nails done.  It was crazy.  I think my hectic schedule has a lot to do with it.  I've been leaving and going to swim aerobics and it's been tiring me out.  I could be a little more help to him than I have been.  I'll have to work on that. 

Alright, so let me get some clothes washed for tomorrow.  I'll talk to you again soon!

On another note-guess who sent me a message via "myspace" Do you remember Katina from Belle Haven? She lived in the building beside mine. We used to rehearse on her porch all the time! She said that she recognized the name and she even called me her "best friend" LOL. Anyhoo....she wanted to see how I was doing and wanted to meet up and see each other. I think she has kids because her things says "proud parent". I will keep you posted
