Ladies, I'm having a craptastic morning and I need to vent.
First off, I woke up to a text at 1:24 am from my kinda-but-not-really-cousin saying her mom was in the hospital, and could I stop by after work because they had something important to talk about.
I adore these folks, but they are the kind of people who don't have a firm grip on reality. They ask for favors like "Could you ask your brother who is in law school to represent my friend in his DUI case?" Um... he is in law SCHOOL, not a lawYER. Or my personal favorite "We want to come to your wedding, but we need a ride. Could you or your mom pick us up and take us home?" So, I'm a little afraid of what they want to talk to me about.
Anway.
On my drive into work some DOUCEBAG ran out in front of my car on Route 1 and I almost clipped him. Like a person on foot. Ran out into traffic. Not at an intersection, or even a well lit area. Wearing a black shirt. Scared the crap out of me.
When I finally do get in to the office, the pilot on the night shift left the place a mess. I swear to heaven, he is the sloppiest person I have ever met and it pisses me off to no end that he does not respect other people or their belongings. He is constently using my utensils- which I don't mind- but he doesn't wash them. He just throws them in a desk drawer, or leaves them on a table for someone else to clean. Today I came in to a big bag of fruit laying on the table and a bunch of dirty steak knives laying around. There was a stain on table like he was cutting something and juice got all over the place. There are literally a roll of paper towels on the same effing table he was cutting on, but he couldn't be bothered to wipe it up.
THEN, our call time for work is 5:30. At 6:00
my pilot hadn't arrived, so I had to call and wake him up. After I get off the phone with him, our office phone was ringing. I ran into the pilots' office to get it and I tripped and fell because the GAWDDAMN night time pilot (who left the mess on the table) had the recliner part of the couch open and didn't close it, so when I ran in, I tripped over it and busted my ass.
I have a really bad headache and could use a coffee.
So. How is everyone else today?
