I dont know who decided it, but our office no longer will provide coffee or tea in the office.So as we stumble into this place in the early morning hours & as we have to slog through the day we will be without the one thing that helps us get anything done.

I would applaud the masterful work of pure evil if only I had the enegy.

Bastards.

Well...today at lunch I got into it with some work friends. Every day they complain about one of the girls downstairs they work with because she makes mistakes and she's not very mature. She's young and this is really probably her first serious job. She started working here a year or two and she turned 20 a few months ago. So yeah she's a kid basically. Anyway these women are always spouting stuff about her and I said well..do something. Mentor her, you guys could take her under her wing and you chose not to. So really if you don't do anything to make the situation better Don complain about it. Also the biggest gripe is that she is late ,leaves early and calls out. Well...they are always out, and leaving early and coming in late. Glass houses people. Glass houses. Moving on they got pissed off and one of them took it personaly and walked out. When we all got into the car the one who walked out was talking in spanish to someone on the phone and being derogatory about me and the other girl. I was not happy.I mean I was ready to have it out and get ugly. But then I remembered I like having the moral high ground >: P

Let me tell you, these ladies (if I should loosely apply that term) have nerve. They scratch and claw at each other all the time.When you give them a solution to a problem that is positive and not negative and bitchy they act like cats who had water thrown on them. Its a wonder we females don't just go at each other randomly all the time. My goodness...what ever happened to sisterhood? Gah! Also I find it funny that they are mad because I was, as one put it " defending her". What does that imply? If someone was being attacked ,the action to prevent further aggression is "defense". So  instead of joining the bitch feeding frenzy I apparently turned on the pack feral females.

Sorry, I'm not a negative bitch who needs that in order to get through my day. I don't feel the urge to curse someone because I percieve them as "weaker". I am aware we are all imperfect and if things are not going well then I just try to fix it and not "just complain". Or I find a way around it. That has been how I make it through my work days when it gets tough. All this hating on the girl is bad ju-ju. You know? Bad vibes.I probably got into it because I got saturated in all their angst. That stuff is contagious, like a disease.

I am kinda upset obviously...I hate confrontations and honestly both girls should know if I am upset there is a reason since they have rarely seen me very emotional before. But then some people can see when they are being less than pleasant and others..well, not so much. I am kinda tired of hearing the badmouthing. The girl they are getting at really is a nice kid. I'm tired of hearing her getting slammed as if she comes into work and spits on coworkers and then pees on their keyboards. Get over it for heavens sake. You job is hard enough Id think without the cattyness.

So meow! Meow!

I am really happy and tired today. My long time friend has moved back for a year from California. How cool. Its nice to have your homegirls in the same neck of the woods. Her baby is too cute for words. I am really excited about the election. I have to go vote. I cant wait to see who wins. I have my hopes and fears and I really dont want to lose faith this year and see another election go down the tubes.

I have my fingers crossed my legs crossed and my eyes crossed for good measure.

I really need to get some exercise in today and after a nice long nap I plan on it.

But AFTER the nap.

A picture is worth a thousand words...but gimme sec maybe I can sum it up for you:

This week is horrible!!! Its the end of our fiscal year and and I have seen so many invoices and had to deal with so much bull...the next person to bug me is getting their eyes scratched out! I feel so beat up and miserable and stressed out that I didnt even see my bf last night  because I was just too damn tired and aggravated by work. Not good. I guess today I will work out and get my act together and do some meditating. I also need to go to group as well as I have not gone all week and I feel guilty. Not beuno. I am really really run down this week and I am really angry at the lack of help I am getting. When other people here need me to help they expect it right away, but when I need help "suddenly" people walk away from the desk and dont come back until later when I have (un)conveniently  finished without them. How nice....my job is not hard its just frickin' annoying dealing with people wh have no initiative and hand off crap to you because they think what they are doing is more important. Or give you half done requests because hey " you can fill out and research the rest of the info since I dont have time to do it" .  WTF is that kind of attitude? This company employs nothing but fucking lazy managers who are inept and would be fired in any other comapny for the lack of follow through that is prevalent here. *SIGH*

Fuck it. I can deal with this and find my happy somehow, someway. After all 2 more days till Friday.

54 Minutes!!! That is as long as my will power lasted!!!

I only lasted 54 minutes before I got into a confrontation  at my job. I guess I got defensive because  I went out of my way to try to help someone and he still acted like an idiot. He used the the word "ignorant"!

I wonder if I get a Karmic "do- over" ?

*Sigh*

I have been having alot of personality conflicts at work this year. I mean I know I am right in what I am saying but I allow people to bait me into having these semi-arguments. I think I am going to try to stop that. I like my job and I cant allow myself to get sucked into the mindless crap people will sometimes pull you into.

I will make a promise to myself:

No matter how much I really want to take my letter opener and shove it into another persons eye, I solemley swear not to either stab someone or show how much I would REALLY like to. I will school my face to look impassive and slightly bored.

Now all I need is a ton of Xanax to follow through on the hard days.

*sigh*
