I knew it all along, �work� is just a big ole conspiracy to drive us all to homicidal tendencies.
Before I delve into just how much my new job sucks though let me brag about the fact that I got a Gameboy Advance SP! It�s so pretty and cute and tiny! I figured it was a damn good reward for taking that stupid job. Good thing it overpays me so well so I can easily afford the gameboy.
Also because of this new money thing I talked my mom into talking my dad into going to Milwaukee for Christmas!!! Which has been my dream since before I can remember. Once when I was little my family came down, but the only way I know of this is pictures because I don�t remember it at all. We�ve never really had family around for the holidays, especially the past decade. It�s been only the four of us which sucks so much because I hate the four of us. Well, really just the three because I think I rock.
Plus I�ll actually get to have snow around for Christmas!! I can�t even fathom such a thing...I get all giddy just thinking about it. It�s gonna rock so much. Make up for the crappiest Christmas ever I got stuck with last year.
In far less exciting news something really strange happened today, other than actually seeing someone with a license plate �2SEXY�. Seriously, what were they thinking?
Anyways, I got off work early so I was picking up my room. All of a sudden, right in the middle of singing along to Cabaret I noticed that there was a car parked outside on the street across from my window. It seemed really strange but I ignored it, closed the curtains a little more and continued on. After a while though I got curious and decided to go check it out.
When I opened my door I immediately saw strange men sitting at the dinner table so I darted back to my room because I had no idea who they were and I couldn�t see any of my family out there with them. My dad wasn�t supposed to be home yet. I waited a while, couldn�t make out anything they were saying unfortunately, and called my brother on his cell phone. He was in his room but he told me they were investigators from Morenci (where my missing cousin had lived) and they were talking to dad.
Well, that was just...weird. It has been over a year since my cousin disappeared, so why show up and start asking questions now? No wonder they haven�t found him. Bastards.
They had all this information which was just crazy. Actually it�s kind of hard to get into right now and I�m still not sure whether to hope he�s alive again or not. So I think I�m just going to get back to how much work sucks.
So yeah, work pretty much sucks just like I had expected. I have to get up all early and my back hurts and bitch bitch bitch�The people are pretty split. Half of them are okay and half of them get on my nerves, let me break it down for you.
Monica: The person I like best. She�s around my age and she says I�m funny cause I always make her laugh with muttering comments under my breath about this coworker we can�t stand. She�s really nice but she just had a kid, so that makes me feel all left out because I think I�m the only straight female that works at this place without a kid.
Denise: Really nice and very helpful, she�s the one that pretty much trained me and stuff. She has yet to get my name right though, which is a first for me. Everyone always remembers my name for some reason, but it�s actually quite entertaining since she calls me something different every day. From Alicia to Ashley to bunches of other Al combinations. My favorite was after I tried giving her my nickname to make it easier for her she called me Elle for a day. It�s always interesting to hear what she�ll come up with next so that�s something.
Joyce: The big boss who I actually like. Whenever I go in to meet with her we always end up talking forever about random subjects. Works out nicely for me because I get to sit and talk, both of which I'm really good at.
Marsha: Slightly humorous but much more often than not annoying. She�s got a sometimes irritating voice and she's always hot so she makes it freezing as often as possible. She does seem nice and she does work but her biggest flaw is that she�s friends with the guy I can�t stand at work and actually spurs him on.
Rene: I think she�s truly a crazy person. She looks really old and she has this amazing ability to mismatch every single thing she wears. She always has at least two bandanas which clash horribly with not only each other but the mismatching shirt and skirt she�ll wear. All of this goes retchedly with not only her shoes and socks but her big fake pearl chain around her glasses. Plus don�t even get me started with the things in her hair...This would all be cool if she was actually interesting and it was just creatively eccentric. She�s not. She�s just...disturbing. She complains about her health problems all the time and she�ll randomly say �Ouch!� or just moan out load. The worst part is when she uses her back scratcher or rubs her back she makes sex noises. Now I keep a straight face when looking at her, which is an accomplishment but come on! How am I supposed to endure that on top of everything? She does have a redeeming quality in the fact she�s read Harry Potter, but she mispronounces everything so...
Sandy: Scary-grandma-accidentally-poison-your-cookies looking lady who is quite possibly the most boring person in existence. Nothing interesting at all to report on her except she seems to revere Joyce as some form of deity because she�s always saying: �Well, Joyce says this...� or �Joyce wants it this way...�
Ash: The most annoying person on this planet. That�s an accomplishment in my book because my dad held that title in my book for 20 years running. First off, he thinks he�s funny and he is so far from it. He laughs at everything he says because he thinks it�s funny. He actually uses the phrase �Aaaalrighty then� and numerous others of it�s kind. He thinks it�s funny to mispronounce everything like calling Pueblo �Peblo�. He hardly ever works, he�s usually too busy looking on ESPN websites or talking on the phone. He sporadically sings along to the radio purposely off key. He repeats himself all the time, he�ll tell the same story or horrible joke not only all day long but all week long. He never shuts up and he�s always talking about himself. He laughs like a girl and his voice sounds like he�s going through puberty even though he�s 23. Then there�s the worst...the mortal sin...he mis-referenced the Simpsons. That�s right. That�s just unacceptable in the world according to Alli. He was trying to make some �funny� reference to how �Homer�s brother invented the sleeping machine.� Seriously, I wish I was making this up.
