My day, in minion GIFs

(Because it's late, I'm at work for another two hours, and I'm on edge).

First, we're having a Winter Stormpocalypse today, or at least that's how it feels with everyone freaking out about the snow and the weather, and I"m kind of over it, so the next person who says anything to me about liking snow and this weather is going to get this:

Then, two of my co-workers called out "sick." One of them just wanted a three-day weekend in the snow, and the other didn't feel like making the drive from where she lives (also where I live) to here in this crappy weather. The rest of us got to pick up the slack, and we're already seriously short-staffed:

I'm essentially doing the work of three people tonight, and no matter what I do, it's not enough, and I keep getting e-mails about doing X, Y, or Z in addition to A, B, and C, which makes me feel:

One of my co-workers (and @urbaneca will appreciate this) has been e-mailing me stuff from FB all night. Bitch, I manage our FB page, I see the same shit you do, STOP E-MAILING ME!:

  • While I'm not a wine drink, I can offer some amazing chocolate milkshakes and chocolate chip cookies and chocolate bars. I'm a chocolate monster who's willing share with a fellow stressed-out Knottie!

    Snow makes everyone freak the eff out. Thank goodness I don't work at Home Depot or something - I'd go BSC at all the people who seem to lose their snow shovels between each and every storm.

  • Oh lordy!

    As per usual, all the wine, all the chocolates, and all the hugs are yours! I hope you manage to escape the crazy soon!

    I'm sure your co-worker is just trying to be helpful though, annoying as it is.

    I want to believe that, I do.

    But mostly she's just incompetent, and SO SO SO eager to be useful that she's actually more in the way.

  • Sorry that your day was so bad. I hope tomorrow is better.
  • Thanks, @jdluvr06. It's just a long day in a long week and I desperately need a vacation but we're in a black-out period.

  • Stupid TK won't let me quote. >:(

    We had one of those at the newsagents where I used to work. She totally freaked out at me one day because I told her to please get out of the tiny stock room which was my office so I could assemble a promo stand for some new brand or other, because she just wanted to help. Which was great, and also very welcome, but the stand was huge and there just wasn't space for both of us and the stand in amongst the stock boxes. Sadly this was a regular occurrence for her in the three months she was there. The bosses eventually asked her to leave because she was too emotional and it was disruptive to the rest of the staff.

  • HGF - I'm sorry for your crappy night at work but this is the best GIF post I've read lately.  I freaking love Minions.  Since I'm at work I tried to keep the laughs to myself but it sounded like I snorted.  Awesome.

    Sorry for your Stormpocalypse.  We didn't get any of it this time but I am so over this snow/Winter crap thing and we are only one month in.  They say if Winter comes in like a Lion it will go out like a lamb.  Well, the Lion brought a bunch of friends to play when he came in so that Lamb better be cuter than all freaking get out and very, very quiet.  Damn this is old.

  • Love your collection of minion GIFs, but sorry they're for a bad day!  Good news, however, is that I'm seeing this a day late, which means Happy Birthday to your husband!

  • A little late to the posts, but I totally love the Minions...ah, if only I can have my own Minions.  I don't even need a full army, just  a few to help out around the house.
  • You had me at minion gifs....sorry your day is a total bummer!
  • My birthday is Friday and I've got a yummy breakfast idea in mind.... What're you making?? :)

  • @tcnoble: I made scrambled eggs with sharp cheddar cheese, sweet red peppers, and sweet onions, and sausage links.

    I also made hazelnut coffee and gave him pomegranate-blueberry juice.

    Happy husband. :)
