Inappropriate Work Conversations: Part II

Friday, March 6th, 2009

Scene: I work at a wireless retailer, and, as a perk, certain employees get lines of service paid for by the company. Each month, I get a detailed bill for each line, which includes what people downloaded. I was going through that today…
Me: Somehow, I don’t think “Jungle Sex” movie clips are appropriate to be [...]

Inappropriate Work Conversations, Part I

Friday, February 27th, 2009

Boss: …everyone got sick while we were there, even Betty*! (Betty is the boss’ one year old daughter)
Me: Aww, that sucks! You guys finally get away to relax and even Betty got sick?
Boss: Yeah… we thought it was the food at first, but Betty’s only on the boob and Jennifer* (Boss’ wife) wasn’t sick yet!
Me: [...]

The End is Near

Saturday, September 20th, 2008

Well, this blogging bit is sure turning out to be hit or miss, huh? You see, the thing about Blogger is, she’s a fickle bitch. She doesn’t like it when I write fluff posts, or when I don’t blog for long periods of time. It’s a catch 22 of sorts – I write fluff posts [...]

I Was Born in a Small Town

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008

I spent Thursday through Monday visiting all of the stores for my company to set up new credit card processing systems for them. We have stores from Monterey to Lompoc, so it was an especially grueling five days of driving… and more driving. My car is a complete disaster – littered with Starbucks cups, McDonald’s [...]

THE REVIEW

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008

*Cue Ominous Music*
I had my yearly review at work today, and actually, kids, it wasn’t that bad. My boss took me to Starbucks (where he bought me a coffee!) and we sat outside while he did my review. I thanked him later, because having the review off site, sitting in my favorite place of all [...]

Ugh.

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

It’s 9:30pm and I’m working. At home. On a training manual.
Quite honestly, if I didn’t surf the ‘net all day at work, I would probably be able to get it done at work. Since I do, here I am. Watching Hell’s Kitchen, and gettin’ my training manual on.
Hope you’re having a great evening, booger faces. [...]

Getting Klassy: An Update

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

About a week ago, I told you that I had decided to “get klassy” (yes, with a “k”…that’s how I roll) since I typically show up to work looking a little (ok, a lot) bummish. After I spent entirely too much money on new clothes, I’ve been looking pretty good at work. Less bummish, if [...]

I account.

Friday, May 9th, 2008

You know what sucks? Intending to post about the fabulous moms in my life for an entire week and then getting bogged down by something stupid like finals. Ugh. I apologize for anyone who was excited about it [snort]. I will, however, roll everything up into one post that I will publish on Sunday, Mother’s [...]

OMG

Thursday, April 17th, 2008

The owner of the company that I work for, who is probably in her mid to late 60’s, just had a conversation with me about “vaginal hormone cream”.
I think I just died a little inside.
