I get to do nothing for 4 more hours. Plus breaks.
And all because of a collective clusterfuck that means my entire team misses out on 4.5 hours of training tonight. So now, until 2:00 in the morning at the earliest, barring a natural disaster–they taught us very early in the initial session about the speed of Dell–I get to sit … Read the rest

27 minutes…
And I’m home le free. Tonight’s insanity done with, I don’t have a job for the next 3 days. In 26 minutes. And… oh, my, suh, weet, le, jesus. It’s gonna feel damn good walking out of this building in… 25 minutes. The countdown is on. And I *will* leave … Read the rest

Thanks giving with the family. Or, will I snap this weekend?
Take insanity from one hell of a work week, add in a trip to Pembroke for thanks giving, a pinch of the ultimate in meladramatic families, throw in a sister-in-law I’m told has grown up a bit but still find myself seriously doubting, and what do you get? Me wondering … Read the rest

38… calls… waiting…?
I get the distinct feeling calling in sick should so have been on my list of things to do tonight. Oh. My. Loving. Lord. I know I wanted to work in tech support, but at 11:00 at night there should not be this much insanity. It’s just not cool! I … Read the rest

I promised you a rant, and here it be.
Warning: this could get very, very long-winded. Possibly requiring it not be posted until the end of my shift–taking one look at how busy we are right now (35 people currently on hold, just for the record) with about 20 minutes before I have to actually start, it might take … Read the rest

*breathes*
The last time calls came at me this rapid fire, I was just starting here. On the day shift. In the middle of freaking January. Oh. My. Loving. Lord. Whoever said I don’t keep busy… uh, doesn’t know me. Or this company. I love it. Time doesn’t go by quite … Read the rest

I just made this company $500.
Which, roughly translated, means… absolutely jack for me. Yay workin’ for the man! One of these days, I’ll work for me. One of these days. Possibly. Nah, too much work. Just hit me up with another bonus or 6.

Just 5 hours and 44 minutes…
… Until I get to go home. Not that I don’t like it here–hell, it’s awesome. But… well, this cold I thought I’d kicked on the weekend? Yeah. It’s back. And it’s got revenge on its mind. What a royal bastard it is. So I’m sitting here, on my lunch … Read the rest

Merry Christmas in September!
Specifics will come out when I see exactly how much of my bonus actually makes it to my bank account, but at the moment, if it’s as much as I’m thinking… there could be some fun being had here. Pay off computer type fun, perhaps. Unless it conveniently stops working. … Read the rest

because 2 weeks is long enough.
Of course, when you do as much in 2 weeks as I’ve somehow managed to do in *this* 2 weeks, yeah… it’s long enough with no updates. Let’s see… where best to start. Vell, I could always start with the usual, easy routine of what had me so busy that … Read the rest
