beansideIt's supposed to be lovely out the next few days, and I'm stuck working all day. To be fair, I probably wouldn't go out if I had the chance, as that would mean going outside. I really should take my lunch break and go on a walk, but it seems like more trouble than it's worth. Plus, I have to take my shower during lunch, so I'll be ready to go into the office tomorrow. It will probably be my last shower with the electric kettle and camp shower! Knowing that we'll have hot water on Monday, I will wait.
They stopped by yesterday morning to mark out the gas lines. We have little dots in orange paint all over our lawn and in the court. So I guess this is really happening, holy shit. I put in to take off for Monday, as I'm relatively sure that I would get no work done while they're here anyway. And that way, Jess doesn't have to deal with both the pissed off dog and the whiny Dad solo.
Dad has been particularly annoying the last couple of days. Yesterday, he was very full of constant "shit" and "oh god." His back and butt have been hurting, because he does nothing but sit in his chair all day, with brief trips to the bathroom. If you sit 10-11 hours a day, there is no pillow that's going to save your ass. Also, we're out of Uncrustables, and he's had to eat peanut butter crackers for a few days, and he's acting like we're specifically denying him. In reality, it's a pay week, and we don't have the money to buy a box. We're not buying anything for anyone right now! I love him so much, but lord, I need a break from him, too.
My Brother in law's father died last night. I mean, honestly, he'd been gone for a while, it just took time for his body to catch up. The family is pretty okay, at this point, it's kind of a relief. It's a relief for us because that means that my sister won't be running over there and leaving us more time to take care of Dad.
Still waiting on something about the job. IKEA's going to drag this out, apparently. I have reached the point of just being tired about it.
Yesterday, someone on the Staten Island team called me with questions about the Out of Market pickups. If I'm going to be the new expert, I'm going to want a pay raise.
Trying to get myself together for the day o'meetings tomorrow. The morning one will require the most attention, so I will definitely be getting some coffee. That's the Out of Market pickup one. Second is a team meeting/training. In the afternoon, I have my performance eval, which is the one I'm dreading, because no matter what I did this year (a lot!) I'm going to get meets expectations. As a company, we failed to meet our sales goals and our happy customer score. So, as a result, it's going to knock down my exceeds. It's total bullshit, and no one is happy.
Okay, looks like my check hit my bank early, so I'm going to go order some fucking Uncrustables. Everyone have a wonderful Wednesday!
