Here's my past two days in case anyone cares...I more or less just have to vent.
Yesterday I went to get a sandwich from the deli across the street. They make a mean wrap...anyway. I walk in, things look pretty typical, 3 people behind the counter, and about 2 people in line. (This is where my troubles begin) All of a sudden the bell rings as a group of what appear to be 8 Asian tourists walk through the door all led by a rolly-polly gal in a green blazer. A shriner leprechaun? Who knows but what I do know was that she was in charge of this parade. I've just placed my order and am standing near the corner waiting patiently for my sandwich when one of the Asian senior citizens asks me if I'm in line for "tickets." I knew right from the get-go this wasn't going to be good seeing as I work at a grocery store for years and sold Lottery tickets and knew how long and how much those elderly drove me up a wall with their inability to place a proper bet, but had no problem spending their entire social security check in one fell swoop. Luckily (well I guess its all in how you look at it) they weren't there to buy Lottery tickets but train tickets...oh yeah! So the Leprechaun yells back how do we want to pay for this...of course silence because their hearing aids must have been on low, so Lucky decides well we will pay seperately.
UM NO YOU WON'T. Ya well they did which resulted in mass confusion and me waiting an extra 15 mins for my sandwich. So long that the guy who made the sandwich didn't even realize he had made my sandwich and asked me if he could help me. To which I responded "Ya I'd love to pay for my sandwich..."
That was yesterday....fast forward.
Today was when I was supposed to have my annual review. Today would mark the 7th rescheduling due to a number of conflicts...hey not much that can be done and I get that...but now I'm just dying to find out what's going to be said seeing as its now been over a week since its initial scheduling. From the looks of it, it will now be at some point next week...we shall see. I bet you're all wondering how I started my day though. Well I was supposed to have a Drs. appt but of course dumbass forgot to delete the old entry of the doctors visit and went to the previously scheduled dates appt. Traveled into Boston for no reason other than the ride, wasted $9.50, and just about half a day. So what did I try and do....well get breakfast of course since I hadn't eaten anything all day figuring I would have blood work, don't want to throw those numbers off! I find Dunkin Donuts....seems like a solid answer to my grumbling stomach. They recently got Flatbreads and Iced Tea...sounds delicious and even somewhat healthy...PERFECT. I stand there and pick out my Flatbread...Turkey Sausage. NOPE sorry we're all out, how about Veggie, to which I responded "That sounds FANTASTIC." Felix was confused, too bad I didn't know the Spanish translation. I ate my cardboard Flatbread with a smile on my face, but hey, the iced tea was just delicious.
I get back to work, do my catch up work seeing as I lost half a day with the wonderful train schedule that for some reason had me waiting about an hour for the next train home. Now of course I'm getting hungry so I walk over to the same deli as the day before, no ones there obviously because its 2pm. Get my sandwich and I'm out...things are looking up. Didn't buy a drink because I know we have water back at the office. I walk up to the water bubbler....OF COURSE ITS EMPTY.....wtf why not...anyone else want a jab? Luckily there are more than one in the office.
