It's Friday! I have made it to the weekend! Two glorious days of relative freedom! I say relative, because after I originally typed freedom, dad paged me, needing things. So relative freedom today and then tomorrow actual freedom as we are getting the fuck out of dodge for most of the day.

Work yesterday was just annoying. I did my three jobs and went to work on a fourth, and by twenty minutes in, I was posting impassioned screeds in the team chat about doing double lines on pickups. I mean, I made it motivational, but still. If you see a case that is obviously wrong, why would you just go in the case, say "pending return" and leave? It's obnoxious.

And I know that I'm a little bit...protective of the pending queue. I've created so many of the ways of working in it that I hate seeing cases get done incorrectly. It's bad enough that the phones coworkers are fucking up, but I can't do anything about that. But when my coworkers who should fucking well know better do it... It's just very annoying. I should not see that four people were in there and left the same comment about it needing a Fedex label sent. Did we look to see why it hasn't been sent? No we did not. We just left it swinging.

And with our team being tabbed to work the pending queue officially, I've become quite the commodity. I swear, my chat wasn't quiet for more than five minutes at a stretch with people messaging me going "what do?" I wish I could just open my brain and share all the stupid stuff I know that would make the queue much faster and cleaner.

Sam has a meeting on Sunday with the other team who works the pickup user role, which should be hilarious. I've been trying to impart the info we get to them, because I know they don't have connections with the ODs like we do, and nothing is changing and it's fucking over our customers, which is fucking over my possibility of getting a higher raise, because one of our metrics is our fucking happy customer score, and if they're not setting pickups and customers are waiting weeks to hear anything, they're not going to be fucking happy. UGH. So basically, work is annoying and I'm very glad to be done for a couple of days.

Today we have the home health aid this morning, and no one else scheduled for the rest of the day! I'm going to spend the afternoon tweaking dinner with Strahd, and creating my character for [personal profile] poisontaster's Call of Cthulhu game on Sunday. Then, it'll be Strahd time, and all hell will break loose.

Tomorrow, we have our much awaited trip to Philly for lunch! I'm hoping the restaurant is half as amazing as it looks! And! There's a big bakery within 0.2 miles of the restaurant. I am definitely going to go visit after lunch. Scottish Tea Scones are a weakness. I might have to make a stop at one of the frou frou grocery stores to pick up some clotted cream to go with.

Okay, for now, I've gotta get Dad some breakfast and get myself together for the day. Everyone have the most awesome of Fridays!
