Still Adrift

Speaking.

September 06, 2005

It was a very long weekend...some of it fun, some of it not so fun. The NASCAR race was great fun, as usual. AND I managed not to get sunburned, which is almost a miracle. I always seem to be a glutton for a sunburn...even when using sunblock. I would go into detail about the race, but most of you don't like/watch it, so I won't. :)

In a few weeks I might be going to my first Major League Baseball game and I'm very excited about it. My roommate being an avid Angels fan, tells me that I must get to a game before the end of the regular season.

We have this problem at work. There is always this group of girls who will hang out and talk in the fitting room, including the operator, and just talk and they don't get their work done. And the people, like me, who actually realize that we are getting paid to work and do what we're supposed to, get really tired of it. So, last night one of the ladies I work with went to the manager and told her that she has 3 people threatening to quit and walk out (me, her and our other friend), if she doesn't go to the fitting room and stop what is going on. Now, I never would have walked out, but it was kind of fun to freak her out a little bit. I know I have complained about this to managers/supervisors at least 3 times, but the crap still goes on and it pisses you off to see people in there talking when your out on the floor busting your ass...especially last night because for some odd reason, we were extremely busy. I just don't get it...am I that much of a goody goody? I mean, I was raised to know and understand my responsibilities and it's really not that difficult. I guess I don't understand how others aren't like me in that respect...not to sound conceited, but, ya know, shouldn't everybody take responsibility for their jobs? Okay, enough about work....

I've had this song lyric in my head for the last day or so... "Life is the slowest form of suicide." That is so true...I mean, don't we all kill ourselves a little bit everyday by the choices we make? It's funny, I've known of this song for 5 or 6 years and yesterday it hit me of how true it was. So sad.
