#269 Work Week CompleShawn

I've impressed myself. Three weeks in and I still maintain a shred of Post-Vacation Bliss. 

It's a very thin shred, but it's holding and it's keeping my from cursing out loud in the office. And if you think that's no small feat, then I encourage you to spend a week next to Typhoid Mary and Tweedle Dumbest (aka the Boss)

#230 Serenity DeleShawn

Are you freaking kidding me?!

All the calmness and serenity I gained over the last two weeks, even with all the extra work that it entailed managing 3 people's desks at the office, came to a thunderous halt within 30 minutes of the return of Typhoid Mary.

Hack hack, cough cough. 
Repeat, repeat, repeat.

And then the questions started. 

And then I was done.

On the plus side she is not in the office tomorrow (roofing repairs at her home)  I'm PRAYING that it will require a 2nd day, so that I know have to deal with her on Thursday and Friday morning.

Fingers crossed.

It's here.

Friday!

More importantly, I did it!

.. or rather I didn't do it.

I didn't explode!  

I made it through the day and now I don't have to deal with Typhoid Mary for the next two weeks!

To be honest it was very touch an go... I impressed myself!

Yay me!

#211 I CAN'T TAKE IT MUCH LONGER! (Office FrustraSHawn)

Not sure I'll make it to Friday Afternoon. Typhoid Mary is as virulent as ever.

I told the Boss today (in front of the cesspool of phlegmy coughs) that it\s a good thing Friday is her last day because the disruption is reaching a tipping point.

The person that sits at the desk next to her, opted to work at the Reception desk. She's lucky because she was the receptionist so she can claim having tasks to do, but between you, me, and the rest of the people in our department... we wish we were the Receptionist.

Two days.

Only two days.
