I had a hella crappy day yesterday. Doesn't it always seem like when you have a bad day everything goes downhill?

Spent all day at work wading through other peoples errors. Spelling out step by step how to fix them, and then they turn around and screw it up again! Then to top it off, they blame it on me!! WTF??!!

My boss: "I know it wasn't your error."
Me: "The why the F**K did you let them write me up for it??!!"
My boss: " I tried to tell them, they wouldn't listen."
Me: " You're the MOTHERFREAKIN BOSS!!"
My boss: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!


Have you ever been so mad you really thought you were gonna explode?

So I sit and pout the rest of the afternoon and 5:30 finally comes around. I'm so out of here. It's 12 degrees outside, I get to my car and reach for my keys.... and no keys. No big whoop they are usually in the ignition when I can't find them, Embarassed and I have a spare door key at my desk. Peek in windows can't see anything, but its dark. The parking lot is full of ice and snow so I carefully make my way back to the building. Here's the fun part!! I realize the building locks down at 5 and you need a key to get in. I of course don't have one.

Did I mention it was 12 degrees out? I wait outside the door a few minutes hoping for a straggler but don't see anyone. So I wander over to the cafetaria windows and start waving my arms to get someone... anyone's attention. I've got my hood up and cinched around my face (picture Kenny on South Park), waving my arms like a lunatic outside the cafetaria windows. I have reached a new low. It doesn't help that I know very few of the 2nd shifters so they have no idea who I am. Finally someone lets me in. Everyone in the office gets a hoot out of this story, I grab the extra door key and hope I can find my keys and go home.

Make my way across the parking lot trying not to bust my a$$, open the car, I search everywhere and still cannot find my keys!! Evil or Very Mad So my only option is to call the hubby and have him bring the spare set of keys. He's just gonna LOVE this. Luckily I have a cell phone in the console. Keith sounds less than thrilled but he's on his way, I'm sitting in the car freezing my butt off trying to figure out where my keys are. Then I remember: Before I got out of the car that morning I had opened the glove box. As I closed it I thought:" What the heck did I do that for? Oh well!"

Sure enough I open the glove box and there are my keys. Embarassed Embarassed Embarassed It freaks me out that I remember opening the glove box, but have no recollection of putting the keys in there.

Anyway I'm up a creek now because Keiths already on his way. I briefly entertain the idea of pretending I still haven't found the keys. But the cold won out, I had to start the car. BRRRRR!

Let's just say I got a major when he got there, and there I sit with the car running. Now I know why dad was so relieved when I got married.

you're lucky you didn't get "capped"

troubling indeed that, at your young age, you stuck 'em in the glove box and had no memory of that action at all

hope today's better. smack someone at work for me. Mad
