I had a fairly decent week this past week, nothing stellar really happened to write home about. But nothing bad happened either. I was entrusted to train a new girl who will be working at the T or C branch on Friday, which was pretty awesome in and of itself. Nothing says your skills are [...]

Although I found some great coupons here for personalized gifts, and I’ve already gotten the vast majority of people on my list taken care of, I’m still hitting a mental wall when it comes to certain people. Not to mention, I really should get off my butt and order some more address labels for myself. [...]

I never really realized it before, but my eyelashes don’t seem to be as long or as full as they used to be. I remember I used to have to constantly worry about getting mascara on the lenses of my eyeglasses unless I curled them up, just right. Haven’t had to worry about that for [...]

The bad thing about time off is always going back to work afterward. You get to be away from it all and the thought of returning becomes a “ugh, do I have to?” kind of thing. At least it’s a Wednesday though, when I go back, so we should be kinda slow tomorrow. Hopefully. That [...]

I love my grandfather, really I do. But sometimes, sometimes I would like nothing better to do then to strangle him. The man is a diabetic, and unless he wants to have one of his own point of care carts at home or be forever on dialysis, he should remember this and eat accordingly. Ah, [...]

Well okay then. I’m guessing the end of summer-slash-beginning of fall is baby season, just like June and May seem to be prime wedding months? The reason I ponder this is simple – people where I work can’t seem to get enough of the baby talk. From magazines about parenting, everyone (female that is) running [...]

I don’t really get people who shy away from using coupons. Discounts and sales, that doesn’t seem to bother people, but hunting down coupons and clipping them (or printing them) and bringing them to the store seems to bug people. Why is that? See, I’ve got a lot of lowe’s coupons right now. Somehow I [...]

Every month there is at least one meeting, early in the morning, that well all have to attend. The focus of the meeting is updates and progress reports on the branch. New rules, stuff we fail at, ect. Most of the time though, it’s a chance for the supervisor to pat her minions on the [...]

Having a bad case of the “I wants and will gets” syndromes here lately. I almost did a bad impersonation of Faith (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) with the whole “want, take, have” bit. I can’t help it! I look at my crappy tv that needs one of those boxes to get channels now and then [...]

Payday is just around the corner, but right now, it’s feeling very, very far away. I’ve only got two payments for Capital One left to go, but since they’re such large amounts each month, a good chunk of each pay check gets set aside just for that. I’ve got my health insurance to pay this [...]
