Ever have one of those days where everything just pisses you off so much you can't fucking stand it? Today is one of those days. I open a soda and it shoots all over the place. Cutips that can't drive and need to have their licenses revoked. Bigass trucks on busy roads causing huge traffic jams.
I could just kill something right now. That is all.

I've had an odd day today, but not that bad. *many hugs*
Today I had missed opportunities. I went to the bank for my mom, got back, and find the CS check in the mail. Well, crap...I wasn't going back out so I just figure that I'll wait.
Then I go to WalMart today and pick up something. I get home and within an hour the phone rings. The OTHER thing I needed to pick up got there. So...another trip I'll have to make.
I've had the days where everything goes wrong though. They're not fun.

Have to chime in here with my day from hell today. Dealing with a moronic co-worker. This chick actually has a "title" that is above the other four in our team. She thinks her crap doesn't stink.
One task she was given today - by ME! - was something all five of us have to do every month. Take 84 pages of a very important document, put five divider tabs in the appropriate places, and then put the entire thing in a binder. Each of us has twelve copies to do. Sounds simple right?
Ms. Genius can't figure out what the hell to do. This lady has a degree in accounting and she bitches every month about having to do this task. I was so ready today to go over to her and say, ever so sweetly, "I have the same freaking degree you do so shut the hell up!"
After she was finally done, she didn't even know what to do with the completed binders. I had to show her to the mailroom and the bins for each person. And this chick has been there longer than me and is considered a senior person. Grr, grr, grr, grr.

Yeah, she's done it before. I've been there three months, she's been there four months. Somehow, I actually have figured out how to run the freaking copy machine and make the 60 copies of the 84 page book. She can't figure out how to insert the dividers and slam the things into a binder.
And this woman makes more money than I do. The worst part was after going through all this crap, I find out that all the accounting clerks in the department can't stand this woman because she thinks she's better than everyone else. She sits in the next cube over from me and will pick up the phone and call me rather than walk two feet to come over to my desk.
Grr, grr, grr.

She sounds like one of those people that amazes me. Amazes me in the fact that they manage to not kill themselves from stupidity.

Just today I had some stupid woman in a minivan talking on her cell phone. She wanted to make a left turn into a parking lot that was before a major intersection. So this intersection has an extra long left turn lane. Does she use the left turn lane to get out of the way of traffic? Nope. Yack yack yack on the cell phone while she waits to turn. I have to put on the brakes and I just laid into the horn. And let me tell you, I rarely use my horn (partly because Japanese horns are horrible). She didn't do anything. Yack yack yack. So, tires a screeching, I took off around her when the traffic was clear, and missed the light...
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr That sounds like my daily near-wrecks driving around Cootlumbia. Especially when I go get my sister from school. Damn kids. Funny how quite a few of us here were one of those "damn kids" just 5 years ago and now we're cursing their very existence. |

Heh, my mom hates riding with me. I'm not afraid of the acclerator. And I'm not courteous. I don't believe in rewarding people for their stupidity.

lol, my mom used to do that too. If I heard a sudden gasp or noticed leg movement, it was probably a good time to hit the breaks, or at least lay off the accelerator.  |

That's true. My entire life all I heard(especially if there was a crash on TV) "You get on a plane, you die."
See? Irrational fear fueled by need for entertainment. But she's better now. She flies now, too.
