beansideI am having some trouble getting adjusted to Daylight Savings. That alarm at 6am is just kicking my ass. I'm up, mildly caffeinated and have done my morning rounds of websites I check, so it's time to babble.
I didn't sleep great last night. Was having some weird dreams that mostly involved things in the house breaking. It was very annoying. Less annoying was waking up from them and finding a small kitty curled up on me. Boodle seems to really, really like the new bed. It took her about two night to get used to it, but now she sleeps with us almost every night, either on top of one of us, or curled in a ball tucked between our feet. It's just adorable and I could puke rainbows every time.
Yesterday was rather frustrating at work. I got to spend the entire day in the pending returns queue, which meant a day of fixing everyone else's fuck ups. Then, not!manager asked me to train someone else in how to do the pending queue. I spent two goddamn hours training this dude, R. I went through about 20 cases with him. Watched him do about four, walking him through them, for him to say "Okay, I think I have a few more in me." I gently explained that the expectation was 75 cases a day for the pending returns team. He informed me that he was glad he wasn't on the pending returns team. It was like but you are tho? If he did a single case after I disconnected the call, I would be massively surprised. I could have probably gotten close to my 75 cases done in that two hours if I hadn't been training. I am incredibly frustrated by my team. Today, I'm supposed to retrain the girl who's been doing them and doing them wrong. I spent time yesterday going back over some of her cases, and some were a bit of a mess. So, that'll be another hour of my time.
Then, I did the stupid thing and checked my email after work, and one of the transport companies, who I had emailed about a question I had about a pickup decided that they should return the favor and email me about one of their problems. It's a pissed off customer, who lives out in the boonies and hasn't gotten his order yet. He's being an incredible jackass to the TSP, and is CCed on the email they sent me, so yay, he has my email address. I can't even bitch because judging by the thread, they've sent it to the inbox and whoever's been working it hasn't done dick. So, now it is my circus. I don't expect it to go well, because the basic truth is that he is just going to have to wait.
Then, after I finish work, it's off to vote and stop at the pharmacy for some more covid tests. Whoo. Then back to make some burgers and maybe get a nap in before I have to put dad to bed.
All in all, it's going to be a long day avoiding the election updates because I don't want to know until it's done.
Okay, I suppose I should get myself together for work now. Everyone have a terrific Tuesday!
