So who is stuck @ work today??Follow

Hotels never close >.<

No way baby! Pajama day today! I will not do anything I dont wanna today. I may not even get dressed.

Just a normal day for me, with the exception that I won't darken these doors again for a normal work day. I'm spending the rest of my time with the company on the road. I'm tidying up various things that they won't know how to handle when I'm gone at the moment. I'm making a short day of it as my ducks are all pretty much in sequence anyway.

Same thing happens where I work. A few salespeople come in late, talk and gossip their heads off, and then leave to make sales calls.

Of course, all their customers are closed so the calls the do make happen to deal with christmas shopping, bar drinking, and then home to sleep the afternoon away. I am not bitter. I was there once and I ***** off alot on days like this.

I have handled 4 calls this morning since 7:00am. Usual volume is about 50 by this time.

Boss is at home banging his white trash, gold digging wife, and not paying attention to their 16 year old daughter who probably spent the night getting packed by her boyfriend while drinking grain alcohol.

Cutting medical benefits without saying a word to employees while also driving around in a Brand new 50k SUV which the company paid for. Starting to get bitter.

At least I can go home after work to our house and relax with my wife and two golden retrievers while sipping wine that my job allows me to do. Guess I can't ***** too much but it sure makes me feel better....

Interesting things that have happened so far today:

1- Guy swearing at me because he doesn't want to pay for parking. The vast majority of people who stay in a hotel in boston are aware that everyone charges, but not over thanksgiving break. Everyone's ******** about it, and 2 people in 2 days have swore at me. One of which, was literally frothing at the mouth. Both of them got charged. Not wanting to pay for something isn't a ligitimate reason to have it adjusted off.

Also, be nice to the guy at the front desk, if they like you they will adjust it off. If you're an *******, you get nothing!!!

2- Guy just got dragged out of the hotel in cuffs. Apparently, he has a high risk of flight, so probate court will be escorting him to and from the judge while he stays here: in cuffs.

"Do you work in the office downstairs?"




Why yes, as a matter of fact!!!

6 calls so far @ 9:45am. Now were rollin!

You're on the one an hour schedule today too?

Yup, it is that slow.

I have to go in today. Today is of course the busiest day for a lot of other departments but I will just be catching up with work mostly. Wish I could take vacation but still, I'd much rather take it for Christmas or New Years than Thanksgiving.

Im home, no work tonight, and I just found out my son is being swept away by his grandparents for 2 nights! I have only an hours amount of work for tomorrrow morning and I am free and clear!


God I love being my own boss.



neener neener neener

Consulting for a major financial institution at the moment; the contract has an hourly rate, so here I am.

Where there are normally 100+ vehicles outside, today there are six. Building security didn't even bother to show up. Eeeeeeasy day.

I had to buy my own lunch today.

I get a free meal per my union contract, but it doesn't necissarily have to be eddible >.>

Soup and Salad otw!!!

I'm not exactly stuck. I came in to get away from they psycho family that still lurks in my home. I swear to god, if I had to listen to my mother-in-law brag about how my brother-in-law's kids again, I would have been tempted to buy a gun just to ram it down my throat.

On a side note, I'm getting paid extra for working today. So I'd guess it's win-win.
