Well, that's just fucking perfect..

So I come in to work today and Bosslady says, "I have some bad news." The way she says it, I'm thinking, "Jesus, did I kill a co-worker and forget about it?"

Instead, she tells me that the new apartment she moved into contained a thoroughly psychotic roommate who got annoyed at her leaving afor work at four in the morning and said she had to move out by the end of the month. Of course, you're now thinking what I was thinking -- "And that has to do with me why exactly?" Well, since she has to move out by the end of the month, she had to move her two-week training trip (during which I'll be working ten hours a day at the very least) a week forward, so now the one weekday I wanted to take off at the beginning of August so that I could have a three-day weekend and go back to PA? Yeah, I'm fucked, because now I have to work that day and because of that, I can't go.

I managed not to tear her head off and run screaming from the room to Hulk-smash everything within sight, but I did get off a snotty little bitchfest when she tried to sympathetically tell me to "just tell yourself you're only missing one little party."

"Actually," I snapped, "I'm missing one huge party, an all-day luau, a parade, fireworks, a trip to the movies, my mother's birthday, and giving my dad his Father's Day present." That put an acceptable amount of guilt on her face. *grumblegrumble* You know a workplace is out of its fucking mind when one of the most important jobs there only has two people to work it.

In other news, the computer I work at is still possessed by Satan. What I wouldn't do for a really mean exorcist and the world's largest boat oar.

EDIT: So tomorrow I'm getting Bulletproof Monk and two out of Ocean's 11, Independence Day, or Jurassic Park. And possibly another DVD rack, because the one I have is full with the box sets stacked next to it. Plus, I'm upset and shopping helps me feel better.

You know, I have this room for rent....

I'm just offering.

That blows.

I think she said she knows of a place already (I'm not sure I heard that right, though ... I was too busy seething from the unfairness), but I'll ask her today.

Bosslady!Hate. What is it with these people?! One has to wonder how they ended up to be the bottomless pit of suck that they are.

I have nothing else to offer you except my extreme sympathy. (It's more on the edge than normal sympathy!)

Well, that sucks. Damn. I can't even think of something to say.


(Jurassic Park! Jurassic Park! *adores Dr. Ian Malcolm that movie something fierce*)

Independence Day? Do we get a review? Hey, how ironic is it that America Saves The World! on the anniversary of their defeat of Britain (with French help, but let's not go in to that here) from probably the only aliens in the multiverse to not have English accents?

Man that sucks!

So what happens if you suddenly get sick and are too swollen to get out of your front door due to some mysterious virus that is 'very' contagous?

Does the world fall apart??

Ocean's 11!! Ocean's 11!

Can't you get someone to cover for you? o_O

That sucks ass.

Is it at all possible to go for the two weekend days out of the three, at least?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

No, because by the time I get there on Saturday, I'll have missed everything.

[fyrdrakken]

Damn.
