You know how when the boss leaves, it's usually the underlings who cause unrest? Well, my boss left for a three-week vacation, and now the district manager, his boss, has decided to change my hours. And of course, he did so without asking me what I thought or how I planned on getting home. That should be fun, because he shifted them just enough to be outside the realm of being able to catch the bus from work.

I was sorely tempted if he planned to pay for my teleportation lessons. 'Cause, urgh.

In other news, tonight my laptop and I shall battle to the pain in the gladiator ring. If I win, I get to lower it slowly into a vat of molten steel while the love theme to "Terminator 2" plays. If it wins, it gets to walk up behind me quietly and poke me over the edge of the Cliffs of Insanity when I least expect it. Ours is a forbidden love ... mostly because too many innocent bystanders have been maimed.

EDIT: I should not give as much of a rat's ass as I do about "Charmed" spoilers. And yet ...

I'll give credit where credit is due, though. Every time "Angel" or "Charmed" or any of those shows pull some weird plot twist out of their ass, I get a new idea for the DMIDS stories. Which then get another novel longer, which then mean I have to write them, which then means I should get my ass in gear and finish the rewrite of book one ...

ARGH. Would you people throw things at my head so I can finish the goddamn rewrite?

Your poor LAptop. Loved the Princess Bride reference! And rewrites are hard. I comiserate. However, *picks up heavy binder of thigns _I_ ought to be doing* you did ask. . .*Lobs it as harda s I can, making it fly a total of. . .two inches* It's heavy.

How much do you value the job, and how much trouble would you get into if you just plain pitched a fit at the guy? Because, yes, your transportation is a valid issue and if he fucked it up that much, you should raise hell at him. Most people are terrified by confrontation so chances are he'll just back down.

I've had that problem in a prior job, where it was the boss' boss causing problems. I hope you've complained about the change by now -- the transportation is a valid issue and probably the district manager didn't know you had to depend on the bus when he made that change...
