When I bought it, it was warm.
Of course, I bought my coffee at 6:30 this morning. And I ended up not finishing the thing until 10:15, when I could actually get off the phone long enough. I’ve taken a grand total of 2 calls so far, and one of those ruined a perfectly good cup of … Read the rest

Wherein my opinion of relying on other people gets more confirmation it doesn’t need.
So remember when I was looking forward to the day shift because I could catch the decent buses going to and from work? Well apparently, they neglected to make that the case on Saturdays. Now, Sundays is understandable–bus service sucks on a good day then anyway. But I distinctly recall … Read the rest

Well now. That was cold.
The walk and subsequent bus ride to work, that is. Uber, freaking, cold. Somebody must hate me. It’s not even January yet, either. Ladies, gentlemen, and people of indeterminate genders, I officially hate winter in Canada. And it’s neither snowed nor actually become winter yet. Bloody hell times 6. I … Read the rest

I might actually get used to this.
After going for an unplanned workout last night, and subsequently not getting to bed until about 1:30, you’d think I’d be slightly more tired than I am right now. That whole… 2.5 hours of sleep thing. But, surprisingly, I’m not. Perhaps not surprisingly considering I just regained consciousness–I expect I’ll … Read the rest

And I complain about missing my hockey games this year…
apparently someone up there heard me. starting next week I go back to working days. And the sweet shift, to boot. If… you call having to work Sunday, of all freakin’ days to work, the sweet shift. But at least it’s 7 to 4. As opposed to 11 to 8, … Read the rest

I think the phone system’s busted…
There are currently a shitload waiting to take calls. A week ago today there was a shitload waiting on hold. What’s busted? Whatever it is, don’t fix it–I’m lovin’ this. First time in like a month I’ve had time to breathe before 4. Hey, I may actually get to take … Read the rest

And then there were none.
Ladies, gentlemen and innocent little children, for the first time all night I actually have a couple minutes–note: certain people’s possibly not yet received emails will have said 30 seconds… that was earlier–wherein I’m not currently trying my best to explain to some moron that his computer is not, in … Read the rest

Wake me up when it’s over, m’kay?
They expect me to be in training until 2, and then in a meeting ’til 4. Which means by the time I take my first phone call, it could be 5. This is gonna make for one hell of a long night…

Dell: we’ll help you with your porn, too.
I’ve sunk to a new low. Guy calls in because he can’t access a certain website. that website just so happens to be worldsex.com, and the reason is his own stupidity. for the record, searching for worldsex.com on google will not, in fact, always reveal that particular website. typing the … Read the rest

What a horrible fan am I.
I promised I’d blog more about my hockey team, then promptly fell off the wagon for all of 2 games. I should really make up for that–for the record, they were games in which we both got crushed and did the crushing, so at least I’m missing games on both … Read the rest
