~Day off...~

No plans today for my day off. I'll probably have a nap later today because I got up with Randy at 5:45am to see him off to work. I didn't bother going back to sleep, just got up, made some really good Black Apron Starbucks coffee and pork chops with sunnyside eggs and toast and watched the news. Now I'm so sleepy and it's getting quite warm in here. Lawnmowers are going everywhere and there is a magpie outside that I'm wishing I had a 22 to take care of it.

Our week has been pretty stressful. Randy is having some SERIOUS staff issues at work and he is getting into a big funk about it. Can't say I blame him, it's been making me moody too! It's just not fair to have to put up with such BS at work and have to tippy toe around people. I like the good old days where you just tell someone to hit the road and don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out. Now you have to call ten different people before you can even sit someone down to talk to them, you have to pat their hand and say, "What can I do for you to make this situation better?" Blah, blah, blah. These people that Randy is dealing with just need a swift kick in the ass and a get doing your job and quit your bitching conversation!!! One of his staff actually told him yesterday that he wasn't working "hard enough". WTF?!!?!? He's putting in 7 days a week, 10-11 hours a day and only getting paid for 40! Not working hard enough? Better go sit down with an eye Dr cause you are seriously missing something you little twit! I don't know how Randy kept his cool with her. Then a freaking customer has the audacity to walk up to them while they are having this discussion and tell Randy that he should get on the floor instead of just standing there doing nothing. He did lose it on her, and I would have too! He told her to mind her own business, he'd been there since 6am without a break and he didn't really give a shit what she thought. Where do people get off? I know that perceptions are everything but in this labor market and this day and age people should just keep their mouths shut and stand in line quietly. Sometimes I think we should just move to a place where everyone has to take a common sense test to live. Would solve alot of problems!!

So as you can tell from my vent I'm sick and tired of all the crap that Randy is dealing with. I want to go fix it for him because it is starting to get to him and I hate to see that. They are taking an enjoyable career and turning it into hell on earth.

Well I should get on with my day, maybe a shower will perk me up a bit. Then I'm thinking I'll work on some filing in my new filing cabinet and scrap a little later. No real plans thankfully! Three more work days till my fun-filled adventure with Mike! Counting them suckers down...
