Friday Freestyles... The Nightime Edition

It's Friday!

5:50 p.m. And the only reason I am typing up a post here at work is because I don't have anything else to do but...

Watch...

The...

Clock...

Until it is time to GO...

Sigh.

You know it is bad when you have to go ask for work to do. I honestly don't think I was given anything because I was one of the only few who was here during the Thanksgiving Holiday week, and I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off! I was glad for the workweek again.
Alas, work is slow. I was able to close out some things I was working on, so that is good.

And it's a NEW day at work! We have a new permanent supervisor.

*cartwheels*

If you have read this blog for some years, it is Ol' Mean Ass Cynthia.

*snicker*

This is going to be interesting.

You know, I was telling some coworkers, they can bring Baton Bob in here to be our supervisor and I am cool with that.

(Baton Bob. He's a man that dresses up in tutus and wedding dresses, and walks or marches through Midtown with a magic wand or baton, bringing joy to us all.)







Yeah, you can bring Baton Bob up in here. LadyLee just want a PERMANENT supervisor. This 30-60 day detail jazz is NOT a good thing. But it has worked out okay. Just wanna see someone PERMANENT. Last chick did a good job. Good job = don't try to work out your self esteem issues by playing jedi mind tricks on me and making my life miserable. She didn't do that. Good job. Wouldn't bother me if she got the job permanently. I just want someone PERMANENT.

And alas. We have that.

I was standing at the copy machine fussing HARD with my specialist about the difference between sorghum and rice, fussing extra hard, when... we both got a twinkle in our eye, and a smile on our faces.

"Let's go ask the new supervisor!!"

*lee and specialist skipping arm-in-arm to the supervisor's office*

Apparently she heard the whole confrontation, as she was sitting at her desk, looking... surley. She isn't official until December 5th, she said.

WHO CARES? You gonna answer this sorghum and rice question, Annie Mae!!!

And she did. Quite well. And we were... happy for a change.

So that is a good thing. Our group is very much damaged. Hope she can deal with our dysfunctionality. I sure she will do just fine.

She stopped by my desk, asked if there was any additional training I wanted to go to (something like that.)

"No thank you," I hollered, cutting her off. "Ya'll just make sure to have my check every two weeks."

She tried to continue. I repeated myself.

She rolled her eyes hard and walked away!

LOL!

(But for real... best make sure my money is straight. That is all. Done took ALL the classes. Aint' repeating NUTHING. Have my money straight. Much obliged).

Well that is the good news of the week. And that makes it a great week.

So... I hope you all have a fantastic weekend...

ON PURPOSE.

(You know I will! Really though!)
