Today is SOOOOOO slow



Recommended Posts

We only had x-mas day off, but since 99% of our customers are closed on Monday, they decided we're closed Monday & Tuesday. But in reality all our customers are closed today too.

So I decided we're leaving here at 3, 2 hours early.. but IT IS SO SLOW!!!

I've had 2 phone calls, from an employee that was lost on a backroad, and a customer wanting a turn time. That's it. I'm so bored I can't take it. Normally I am swamped with work and the days go by, so on top of anticipating a 4-day weekend, I just can't make this day go by. 2 more hours.. of.. nothing. I brought a book I'm reading to work, but only have 15 pages left...

Anyone else bored as hell at work?! :faint:

Yes, it is dead here too. I am heading out and gone until January 2, 2008.. Yeah, I can't wait. I am bummed that I'm not going to Texas and Mexico, but I'm going to make the most of it. Well, wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Take care.

Yeah, I'm bored. Our boss (who happens also to be my mom) has said she's going to let us go around 1 or 2. The whole week has been slow-ish for me because I've been relatively caught up at work anyway...

Ouch losing.. you win. I thought my bosses were scrooges not giving us monday off (initially)..

Then again, my dad is making me go to the mall with him, and there's all those poor people that are working there.. I sympathize kind of.. I worked at Hobby Lobby during the holidays when I was younger.. Hobby Lobby with their antique cash registers where you have to key everything in, and refunds have to be written out on paper.. and the elderly women who are returning $.01 items by the handfuls during the Christmas sale.. I digress.

Maybe this hour won't be too bad LOL! (55 minutes!) I am going to go check out pogo

I'm off until Christmas Eve at 7:30pm. Then I go to work and work until Christmas Morning at 8:00am

But we're having a brunch/breakfast potluck, so it's all good! ;)

The benefits of working in a tourist town...I am very busy. LOL Tons of people here for Christmas. No - I'm not bored. Kind of wish I was. All these out-of-towners need to go home. BAD drivers and people who think the whole town is a pedestrian mall. ;) I'll trade ya.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
