Smile, Laugh eat biscuits!


Today I discovered something disturbing. Not something bad, more sad.

This morning I didnt feel like eating breakfast, I knew I had a sausage biscuit in the frig at work, so I knew I could heat it up latter. Well latter came and I was hungry. So I got my biscuit and headed for the break room. On the way decided microwaving the bread would just be bad, so I changed course and went to the other side of the building, where I knew there was a toaster. Just a plain 'ole toaster but heating the bread in this would be sooo good. As I disassembled my breakfast, a lady from that side of the building came to fix herself a cup of coffee. She said 'hi' kind of quietly, as if to say "I'm speaking because I feel I have too, because you do not belong on this side." Feeling this I said, "Wow, I'm glad ya'll have a toaster 'cause heating a biscuit in the microwave is just WRONG!" She laughed, I mean really laughed, hard. I laughed too, retrieved my bread and headed for my desk.

On the way back to "my side" I realized the disturbing thing I spoke of earlier... this was the VERY FIRST TIME I had ever seen this woman laugh. In the 2 or 3 years she has been working at my business, I have never even seen her smile much less laugh. I was disturbed earlier, now it kinda makes me feel, well, warm and happy that I could make her laugh. And I did it with a left over sausage biscuit, imagine what I could do with pizza!!!

stupidity should hurt

stupid should hurt. I've said this before and I mean it. If stupid was painful, maybe there wouldnt be so many stupid people making stupid decisions. If stupid were painful, maybe pseudo-'team leaders' wouldn't waist time on dress code, color printer options or lists.

I dont know who all reads my blogs, so I very well could be sticking my foot right directly in my mouth. But everything I have and will say is true! Some folks may not like it, I DONT CARE! I am 37 years old, I am done playing kindergarten games. My work place has turned into a grown up version of romper room. Some folks say they are making decisions and arent, some are making decisions and not telling anyone about them. Still others are trying to change policies that mean exactly DICK, instead of concentrating on what they should be doing.

Some people are having meetings they dont remember, making decisions they cant recall and promising things they latter deny. AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA

frus·trate (frŭs'trāt')
tr.v. frus·trat·ed, frus·trat·ing, frus·trates
To prevent from accomplishing a purpose or fulfilling a desire; thwart:
To cause feelings of discouragement or bafflement in.
To make ineffectual or invalid; nullify.

That is the definition of my work situation.

you know you can only bang your head against the wall for so long before, 1. your head hurts, 2. you break your head or 3. the wall breaks.

Right now, my head hurts and it may be broken.
