Welcome ltorosf

Finally the end is in sight..   The last day and this maybe the worst day if the carriers don't deliver.  We already know that many will be late because  of logistics, no place to put anymore packages.  Yippie for me.

For the past month we have had twice weekly pancakes and waffles at work (and all the fixing, whipped cream, etc). Other days was the snack cart going around. I've been to this rodeo before, takes a bit more than that to get me to drink the kool-aid.

They have kicked it up a notch this week. Tuesday was grilled cheese sandwichs and soup,  Wednesday was pizza, all day, constant deliveries.

Thursday?  The bribe worked. Homemade cookies and milk.

One woman (and her family) made 900 cookies, several different kinds. All the ones that I had taken out of the recipe file and that is as far as it got. They were so good and such a sugar high.

The kool-aid tastes great, have some!

Friday was just ice cream delivered to each cubicle.













I am so not going to weight watchers this week.

The job bitch - in random order

Quit calling the big A. Quite whining because the estimated delivery was yesterday and you don't have it yet.

Hello, northeast? Notice that white stuff? Did you notice that other parts of the country had white stuff too? You are not the special flake, the white stuff is a factor and there is nothing I can do about it. DHL delivers to the post office, deal with them, they have your order.

Other special flake? The Big A did not prevent you from placing an order in August so that we could raise the price and then let you order. We were out of stock, when we got more stock it was a higher price. It is not at all "disturbing" that the save until later box goes the price in August, the currrent price is the price in December. We lower and raise prices daily. If you can not articulate what assumptions that I am making about you, then the odds are I am not making an assumptions (at least not that you could tell).

It is not the happiest time of year, I don't care what you tell me. Those people at Disney World probably don't think it is the happiest place on earth either.

The phones went dead for all of 1 minute, the standing ovation we gave should have told management we are a bit burnt out. They have been trying hard to give us treats - today was grilled cheese and soup. There have been twice a week pancake/waffles, the snack cart going around, pot lucks.

Just stop calling me. If you do call me, please have something more than rocks in your head. Really, I can not get into "your machine", I don't have that power. I am looking at the same web page you are, if it is sold out, it is sold out and I don't have a stash of the dress in the back room just waiting for you to call.

It used to be that the big A was only really hetic this time of year. Then we started answering phones for the .com side of the Bulls Eye Store. That brand of dumb begins in the spring and continues - sir, the gazebo you purchased - the fabric one? You need to take that down when you are having hurricane force winds during the Santa Anas. You will have to contact the manufactor to get those poles replaced. Yes, sir, I heard about your winds, you should have taken your gazebo down.

All 31,000 copies of Rock Star the bundle canceled? Good times there.

There is an old saying - "this is why cousins shoud not fuck" . The dumb keep on coming and I think I have spoken with every spawn of the devil's loins today (or their mother).
