Friday’s 2nd Addition

Boss man had me doing some work for him.  It was a little more than stressful.  Not something that is in my job description, but I can’t exactly say no.  It took a while but finally back to peace & quiet!  That is until the next crisis rolls my way. 

For a Friday today has been exceptionally busy.  E-mail chatter, phone calls and boss man – all in one day.  Ah well I guess that is why it’s 2:30 and I still think it feels like 10 am.  Sure will be nice come 5pm!

Talked with my guy at lunch time.  He said that we can still go to the new place.  The coupon he has says the offer is good every day of the week.  Okay, so looks like we are going.  I just hope it’s good food.  Nope, they don’t have Blueberry Pancakes, guess I will have to get those another day.

Did you ever realize that we are surrounded by noise pretty much all day long?  Yeah, it hit me the other day.  I was on my way out the door and when I got to the garage it was so peaceful.  You could hear a pin drop.  Total silence.  Then I got in my car, turned on Pandora and headed home.  Yep, right back to the noise.  Peace & Quiet is something I think we all need to experience at several times during the day.  Couple that with government mandated afternoon naps for 1 hour and I think the world would be a better place.  Hopefully then everyone would mellow out.

Oh my poor stomach is mad at me.  I had way too much chili last night.  I was miserable when I went to bed and for most of the morning.  Just like I thought the chili got better and better each day it was reheated.  Some how it kept getting spicier too.  I am glad I polished it off.  That should cure me of chili craving for a bit.  Now hopefully me and my stomach can kiss and make up.

I am ready to call it a day and go home early.  Sure would be nice.  One of the guys took the day off, he certainly had the right idea.  Next week we will be having our corporate supper.  I am hitching a ride with one of the girls and she agreed to bring me back to the office.  She lives like a million miles away, so she won’t stay long.  Which is perfect for me.  That way I get home at a reasonable hour (hopefully) and I can have a little time to relax before I have to come back the next day.  This is mostly to talk about the trip that they are planning next month, which I won’t be going on.

Checking my e-mail I got a reminder from the florist that Bosses Day is next week on the 16th.  Holy crap!  Now since my boss has been such a jerk the question is do I get him anything or do nothing?  No matter what you think will earn points with him, it some how backfires and you wind up in trouble.  So I am totally open to your suggestions!  I mean he did do at least once nice thing and that was hire me and keep me.  Let me know what you think.

Have a nice weekend and I will talk with you peeps later!

Hmmm well unless Bosses Day is huge in the U.S. (it is little known here) I'd just leave it. It might be different if you two had a wonderful relationship and knew each other well. Just my 2 cents worth though, and Canadian pennies at that! LOL

It's not the huge here. If my boss is awesome, then I get them something. I'm taking your advice and doing nothing! Sort of like they did for me on System Administrator Day. :)
