Jo Jo Bonehead Your Brain Is Calling
Exercise: 3 1/2 pitdripping miles
I'm a patient person but when it comes to lazy asses who don't have a brain to save themselves, my tolerance level drops significantly. I had taken some paperwork back to a business manager that I work with (one who has always been somewhat of a thorn in my side with his ways) for some revisions. I told him exactly what I needed and when I overheard him mention a date that was wrong I even corrected him. Not too long after I left his office, he came over to my desk to give me the revisions. Wouldn't you know, the date (the one I had actually corrected) was WRONG.
Fuck.
It's not like I really expected it to be right. This is the typical shit he does hence the reason he has always been a thorn in my backside. I had thought about marching the stuff right back to him and making him correct it, however, knowing how he often will sit on things like that, I decided to take matters into my own hands and "fudge" it. I'm tired of stuff getting way behind because this guy can't seem to be bothered to do squat.
Here's another example....
There is a planning tool that is used for this particular line and I needed him to make some changes to it. Because the numbers weren't figuring as he thought they should, he asked me to get some paperwork to support it. I told him that I would go get it and bring it right back. In the few minutes that it took me to go to my desk, pull out the paperwork, and walk back to his office, he "disappeared". It was about lunchtime so the thought popped into my head that the dumbass took off. I made a B line for the reception desk to see if he had signed out. Sure enough there was his name.
FUCKER!
Turns out he hadn't left the building yet - he was in the bathroom. When he came out, he stood at the top of the stairs and said he was going to lunch. Well good for you asshat! Lord knows if the positions were reversed, I would be asked to finish the job before going to eat. Not like it would have taken more than 10 minutes anyway if that.
ASSMUNCH!
If that wasn't enough, I had the misfortune of having to talk to this woman I talked to last week who is a complete boob about a collections issue. When I talked to her the first time, I had explained what was going on and faxed her all the supporting paperwork. What does she do, she turns around this week, sends the stuff back to the customer saying there is still an issue. Ok lady, obviously math and logical thinking aren't your strong points. I got even more paperwork (unfortunately I couldn't get my hands on the "smoking gun" that would have hit it home to her) and called her up to attempt another explanation. What really perturbs me about this dumb bitch is that she won't shut her hole long enough to listen to what you tell her (gee no wonder she doesn't have a clue) and then she goes through her own long winded blah blah blah only to eventually get to the point you could have made 10 minutes earlier in 2 minutes time. Keh ~rolls eyes~ It was a good thing I was able to get out and run today!
Speaking of running, I think I have found my next pair of shoes. The ones that I have now are still in pretty good condition but if they are anything like my last pair, at the end of summer, they aren't going to have much of a sole left with all the running I do. I've posted a picture below so you can see what I am looking at. They are the new Nike Free 5.0. Decent price too!
Oh, that show Hit Me Baby 1 More Time was on tonight. It's the show where they bring old bands back to perform again and then the audience votes for who they like best. Taking a quote from Beavis - This sucks! Change it! Not only was the host absolute crap, I really can't say much for the people/bands they had on the show. If you ask me Mike Reno (lead singer of Loverboy) and Mike Score (Lead singer for A Flock Of seagulls) should not be allowed near a microphone ever again. Some of the American Idol castaways sounded better than them. ICK!
I also watched Prime Time Live tonight. One of the reports they had concerned a supplement called Protandim. Supposedly it has the possibility to cut oxidative stress down to the rate a small child has. Although scientist are cautious about calling this a fountain of youth in a bottle, the people the reporter spoke to said that it could eventually lead to a 50% increase in the human lifespan meaning people could live to be 130 to 150. My thought on that - who in their right mind would want to??? I have a hard enough time imagining being here until I'm 80 let alone 150.
Fuck!
Well, Red Dwarf is about to come on so I must be going - missing it would be a crime! LOL
Til next time....
