The pay's the same...
I was super pissed when I left word today. I asked for a day off - and got an email back saying "I'm not against it - but can you consider only taking half a day?" Um... that's kind of like saying how about you take half a day off on Friday to take a long weekend - but you can't take the afternoon off - you can only take the morning off. WTF? I sent a nice polite email back say "pan for me taking the entire day off." I should not be emotionally blackmailed, or made to feel guilty for taking a day off. I've done my work, I come in the hours I need to, I've even put in extra hours when required. So if I want a fucking day off, and there's not a really really really good reason for it, I'm taking the fucking day off. Screw you guys.
I was getting really pissed off and upset about it - almost sent a really bitchy email to my boss - but then I remembered "the pay's the same." I'm sure he's not over thinking this. So I'm not going to either. (I have a real issue with over thinking things. Especially work things.)
I'm really creeped out by this one guy at work. He does "the look" where a guy scans you up and down every time they see you in the hall, or the common room, or the lab, or coming out of the bathroom. He also gave me a really gross nickname pertaining to the Spice Girls. Gross. He just really creeps me out. He's super weird too - which creeps me out even more. He is always looking for free food. If the company has a picnic and has left over food - he takes ALL of the leftovers. At lunch someone asked him if he wanted their left over can of tomato sauce that they put over some pasta. He gladly accepted. A partially used can of tomato sauce. Still in a can. With no extra container to take it home in (can anyone say botulism???) It was the super cheap can too - the ones that cost like 29 cents a can. That's right cents. Nothing other than cheap canned tomato sauce has costed in the cent range since like 1987. But he always talks about how he's got the latest and greatest cell phone. I think he's had like three or four models in the last year. So I can't decide if he's poor, weird, or just can't figure out how to budget.
I try to avoid him at all costs - but today he came into the lunch room while I was eating. He then proceeded to over microwave hot dogs. And by over microwave - I mean that they were definitely in there for about 4 minutes too long. Then he ate them - with a microwave 7/11 burrito - but no bun. No ketchup (um it's that the reason why everyone eats french fries? Just for the ketchup? Who really likes greasy fried potatoes. They're just a ketchup delivery system...) No mustard. Just gross 7/11 microwaveable burrito.
Don't get me wrong. I love burritos. From Chipotle. Not 7/11. Not microwaved made from a billion 7468 chemicals. Like real food - things that come from the ground and are not made from chemical vats of weirdness.
I especially could not do a microwaved grossness of a burrito with a HOT DOG. HOT DOG! Like all the gross parts of the animal that no one else would consider eating - ground up into oblivion - to the point of unrecognizableness and feed to small children who don't know any better. Both of them together are just kind of over the top.
I have to say that this whole time change is totally throwing me off. I'm hungry at weird times, I'm not sleeping right, I feel completely thrown off. Can I just go to bed and someone wakes me up when it turns April?
