If I asked to get a weekend off to go to a memorial service do I fess up that I decided to go camping w/ friends instead? I hope no one asks me anything about the weekend when I get back.
That is the worst question in the world. I hate it!

Just make up the service in your head before you go to work. Like a tight 5 minutes of memorial stuff.

I only had to answer the question once.
"how was your weekend?"
"good"
End of conversation
I might have said, "Good thanks" or something similar
AND NO ONE ASKED ANY DETAILS!

Respond by saying "You ask a lot of questions are you wearing a wire?".

I had a dream about work.

Ugh

I have dreams about past jobs. Those are sooooo freaky. I wake up going' "Why am I back there?" and then relieved when I realize it was only a dream.

I found work to be very annoying today.

Too many stupid people.

SAme.
It was my Monday. My patience ran out with the first phone call I had.

It's the summer equinox, or something. Or not.

Maybe people really are just stupid lol.

The latter, I think.

I've applied at 2 jobs this past week.
I had some advice to just keep submitting and interviewing and meeting companies even if I decide I don't want to work there. My life will definitely change, but I can't keep on the same road w/ this company if I am not going to advance or be year round.

Not sure if I mentioned this before-but one of the new people has a 2nd job that he works nights that pays way more than this job. They are both 40 hour a week jobs. I've had multiple jobs but not 2 full time jobs at once!

Getting finger printed and drug tested this morning. It is a requirement to pick up the mail for the boat. Doesn't mean a pay raise or yearly position tho!

Extra work for no extra pay, it's the American way!

It reminds me of that quaint scene from On Golden Pond, when the mailman pulls up to the cabin in his boat to deliver their mail, and they invite him in for coffee.

Sweet movie.

I HOPE THEY DIDN'T FIND ANY EVIL DRUGS IN YOUUUUuuu!

I know! Maybe they will!

I felt like quiting twice today.

I have an interview at the end of the month for the ferry on the west side.

When I lived in Manhattan, I was the Fairy on the West Side!

:trolldance:

Carry on.
