Boss-lady is bringing her daughter into work tomorrow.
I'm looking forward to it (I do like kids) especially as she loves pets. I'm going to shanghai her into holding Diz while I clip his claws. He's not nasty in the slightest - he just wriggles too much for it to be a one person job. BTW she's 13, not 6 or something equally inappropriate! |

Ο φίλος σας είναι ομοφυλόφιλος και επιθυμεί να με κτυπήσει με το πορτοφόλι τσεκιών του.
Αντίο τώρα!

Somedays I think I've wandered into a really bad version of A Clockwork Orange, such is the love of violence I see.

Doesn't anyone take any fucking personal responsibility for their own shit? Yeah, I've had money problems but I never blamed anyone but myself...everyone wants everything handled for them, handed to them, watched for them, done for them. Good luck in the real fucking world, folks.

People don't need to take responsibility, because when they get a full time job, someone else will always pick up after them. Even though it's not in their job description. Even though they do have a full time job and still would have even if they weren't babysitting other members of staff.
Take artists for example. They live pretty bohemian lives. In fact, they don't need to keep an eye on whether the toilet roll in the individual cubicle they are in is running low. Because after all, it won't be them who sits down for a wee, only to find there's only one roll in there and it has approx two squares on it. Less talented individuals tend to replace rolls (from the cupboard BY THE SINK) if the roll is close to running out. Same as putting milk back in the fridge. Artists can do a tea/ coffee run and bring milk out into the workshop with them (too taxing to ask how people take it I guess). Then, and this is the funny part, they don't need to take it back to the kitchen. Sometimes, boring squares who aren't creative will find it at the end of the hot, humid day. 2/3 of a pint of milk all warm and stinky! Meh. I'm not being grumpy today, please remind me! |

I know, my grumpo-meter is through the roof. It's the result of 2 months straight of whiners, criers, liars (some so unabashedly I would almost applaud their nerve if I didn't find the whole thing so disgusting), tired of babysitting, as you say SG, and tired of holding hands and doing backflips and kissing ass and smiling when being lied to straight to my face like I'm a complete moron and jumping through hoops for people who waited 4 months to respond to a request and then call yelling that "YOU PEOPLE" are ruining his/her life. Oh, and doing the job of at least two people.
I need a change...where's that mid-life crisis thread? I'm at the apex of my MLC I guess.
