This is just bull shit. I’m so not happy right now. On Friday I was asked to do a quote on how long a particular piece of work would take. I estimated 26 days. Now, I know that I am crap at estimating things, so I used a nice little formula. Plus, we always tend to underestimate and other things pop up that interrupt us so I padded it a bit. Ben knows all about that. Well, I was told “No, I’ve give you 20 days.” WTF?? Why in the hell did you ask me, then? Why do I even bother, Huh? “Fine! Whatever,” was my response. Now, I was also promised that I would have 20 uninterrupted days. No answering questions, no fixing other bugs, no test crap, no interruptions! Yeah, right. I KNEW that wasn’t going to happen. How come I have already answered 3 people’s questions and fixed 2 bugs today? What happened to leaving me the hell alone?? It’s 5:30 and I’m leaving. They can kiss my ass!
Oh, Lisa never called this weekend. I really didn’t think that she would because she is flakey like that. I had already decided that I wouldn’t answer if she called. She knows where I live but I can’t even get into my gated community if I don’t’ have my card, so didn’t expect her to just pop up.
This weekend I went to see a girlfriend of mine and her hubby and son. I love going over there. Her little boy is just so cute and her hubby is a gourmet cook! After dinner, he was trying to decide who he wanted to tuck him in that night, the son, not the husband. ;o) He looked at me and said “Sherie tuck tuck…” I almost fell out of my chair. ME?? Really? Last time I was over he threw a fit, laying in the middle of his bedroom floor crying “Nooooo! Mommy tuck tuck!” For about a half hour before giving up and letting me tuck him in. Actually it was really cute. He had this phonics thing where all of the letters fit into a little hand held thing. When you put a letter in it says it and says how it sounds. We were doing good till we got to M and the damn thing said “M goes mmmmm.” His little eyes just got all watery and he went “Mamaaaaa!” When I finally did talk him into the bed, he still whimpered a bit while I was reading him a bedtime story. So, you can imagine my excitement when he was asking me to tuck him in. Then of course he says “No… daddy tuck tuck.” He’s such a tease and he is only 2!

they love to mess with you at your job, don't they?
Have you ever seen that movie Office Space? You need to behave more like the lead characters in that flick.
I'm glad you clarified who wanted to be tucked in ... I really did think it was the father. LOL
Oh yeah, Office Space is hilarious! Take a lesson from them ... you'll feel all your stress disappear!
How come out secretary saw office space for the first time and said it reminded her of us? LOL!
Yes, they do like to mess with me. But it's not just me. The one guy above me is all stressed and working hard too. It's funny because our boss was talking to him and another guy(that's above me too!) and was telling him how they could keep pushing "us" like this an how "we" need a break to re-group. Ummm, the us and we is ME! I just wanted to scream "It's been a year and a half! I need my break now!"
