Last week at work was hell. It got so bad that one of the supervisors in another area asked me what in the heck I was still doing there. Well, even though I was just a temp, I didn’t want to leave them short handed and thought I was being nice. I took more pepto and rolaids last week than I have in the last year. Finally I couldn’t stand it any longer and just left and didn’t come back. I don’t know if it was any worse than I had been putting up with all along, I just knew that I didn’t have to put up with it anymore. The bad thing was that everyone else there was really nice and I liked them. Some people are just not nice and I just have to deal with that.
I went to OKC to sign up for my new job. That took forever because there was another woman there with me who kept asking stupid questions and asking the same question several times. UGH! I thought she was just slow until we were walking out and she was laughing about how she stretched it out because she was getting paid for it. I of course, am not since my official starting date isn’t until tomorrow. I wanted to strangle her.
I took advantage of the nice weather this weekend and went to my moms. We went to this place in my hometown that they had piled a bunch of bricks from tearing down an old building. So I picked up the broken ones to put in these two huge holes in the alley that the city hasn’t fixed in, oh about 6 months. And since my neighbor reminds me constantly that the only LEGAL access that I have to my house is through the alley, I thought it was time to do something about it. I’m tired of scraping the underside of my car everytime I go somewhere. And no I didn’t know when I bought the house that I only had alley access. Just one of the many things I assumed when I bought it that didn’t turn out to be true. But I have sure learned a lesson from this house buying experience. I won’t take anyone’s word for it that the place has been termit inspected or that the roof doesn’t leak because it was only a few years old or that the gas and water lines didn’t leak, etc., etc., It has sure been a learning experience. The good thing is in less than a year it will be paid for. And if the windows aren’t air tight and the floor is cold, then those are things that I can put up with until I can put some money into it.
