Monday started wrong.


 It's bad enough that it's a Monday but when you start the day by opening your eyes and wondering to yourself, "why is the sun already shining"? Slept right through my alarm. First sentence of the day, "ugh fffbleep", nothing to ruin a day by going into work late. All the way there, listening to reports of buses being cancelled because of the freezing rain, luckily I didn't experience much of that. Anxiety over potentially crashing, as good as a cup of coffee.

 Then when I get in to work, people are waiting for me, never a good sign. My new partner in crime that I have spent weeks training, has been taken away from me, another department needed her immediately and I was given a new person, a new very green young person that has never worked in my type of environment before. Here Steven, good luck!

 I will now spend weeks training her, my work will suffer, my department schedule will suffer and... I HATE F*ing training! HATE IT! Makes me want to quit and email a big "STICK IT" to the person that felt this was okay to do. Anyway Tuesday is coming up in a few hours, will it be better, just heard the news, snow tomorrow... and could be lots of it in some areas. I need a drink.

No drinking on a work night! You have to get up in the morning!

I'm sorry you have to train a green person, but please don't be prejudiced about it. People of all colors can be headaches to train.

Have you considered being adopted by a gay aging millionaire with a heart condition and no living relatives?

Anita Moorecocks maiden name was Anita Cocktail.

Taking Lurkers advice, I'll see if Daddy Warbucks wants a third.

Ohhh training newbies can be a chore.
Hopefully this one will be a quick study. And as Lurkie said (and John joined that chorus), maybe an aging gay millionaire? Of course, then you'd be wanting for some nookie. Life's not perfect, Stevie.

XOXO

ugh, what a way to start the week.

Winter . . . it ain't over til it's over.

Steven, I'm not quite sure if I know what you do for a living, but from that last paragraph of yours, I'm guessing brothel work. I could be wrong. I was going to be classy like Anne Marie and Debra, but decided to go smutty with the guys. I hope your Tuesday is better than your Monday was.

The only thing worse than Monday is when Monday falls on Tuesday. I just came off a four-day weekend, and, well, I'd now like it to be a 5,6,7 365 day weekend.

OL, green people are lazy, they just want to lay around and not contribute to society while at the same time they expect every government hand out that there is. I think we need a wall to stop green people from entering Canada, I'm not racist, purple people and even blue people are cool, not like those green people.

A gay aging millionaire would want someone younger with a better body... and I read John's blog.

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Maddie, that could become my drag name lately, Anita Cocktail and I don't even drink!

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Sixpence, well I'm not getting any nookie now... so at least I would maybe get a yacht out of the arrangement!

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Anne Marie, yes what a way to start the week! Should have stayed in bed. Lol

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Debra, ahh only another Canadian can truly understand my pain! :) hahaha... :(.... whaaahaha!

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Deedles, ok that's it, from now on... you are not allowed to go over to Old Lurker's house to play. I have put my foot down!

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Bob, trouble with that weekend is that there is no work day but no paycheck either. :\

Leanna said...

The only part I like about winter is the first snow. After that, it can chuck itself. Thank the Goddess I live in an area of Texas where snow is not allowed. Training newbies. I hated training newbies in the lab. If they didn't pay attention when I explained how to do a procedure and learn something, I would make them clean the machines. No one likes to clean the machines.

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Leanna, that's what I do also to keep them from getting under foot lol!

Deedles said...

First of all Stevie wevie, a cocktail doesn't have to be a drink. I mean, just look at the word! Secondly, I don't care where you put your foot, I can play with Old Lurker if I want to! I am, after all, a grown ass woman, neener neener!

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Deedles, "the foot" has been put down, you must not mess with "the foot". I'm not really sure what would happen but kids everywhere used to be afraid of "the foot" being put down. Cocktail, I don't get it? Isn't that the beautiful feathers on a rooster's butt?

Jimmy said...

HATE is such an unmelodious word.

Sooo-this-is-me said...

Jimmy, but I don't like training :(
