My company is lucky the economy sucks and I really need a paycheck. I was pulled aside today shortly after I got there and my supervisor basically told me that she and "many" of my colleagues feel that I am lazy, goofing off and not pulling my weight, and I needed to get my **** together or my job was in jeopardy. After having a ******* horrible month with debts all over the place, health issues, with bills I can't afford to pay, identity theft and today I found out my mom may be losing her house since she got laid off 6 months ago and can't find work, after all of that I nearly lost my composure and told her to go **** herself, sling **** across the lab and walk out with my fingers in the air. I already get **** all the time from her and her group of bitchy, lonely, spiteful lab friends, who constantly gossip and try to get people in trouble and ****. She was basing this **** off of in computer productivity, the number of specimens I process. I am a processor in a medical lab, and I basically prepare requisitions and specimens for testing. My productivity is low because I am the last scheduled processor to come in, nearly 2 hours later than the second to last scheduled, when I get there, there is little to do, and I sort **** on the counter while they are all at lunch. After they get back, I go to lunch, then when I return I have maybe an hour to process before I have to get back on the counter to sort our largest routes, out of state clients, which takes another hour or so. So in a given night, I maybe have 2 real hours of time to process, much of which is spent doing side jobs no one else wants to do, like loading centrifuges, unloading them, auditing requisitions for the fastest processor in the lab, and other little jobs. So of course I'm short on actual in computer processing. Then after EVERYONE else leaves, I'm the last goddamn processor left and I have to stay 3-4 more hours, usually leaving an hour or two late to help the auditor sort into numerical order 3-5 thousand requisitions. Not only do I not get a ******* "thanks for the hard work" ever, but my hard work is ignored and I am told to my face that I am lazy and goofing off... **** THIS JOB! I'm probably the lowest paid ************ there too, since I lowballed myself when I started. I know my friend who has the same position and same experience is making $2.00/hour more than me. As soon as I can find another job, I'm blowing this ******* joint. I'm going out in style too, **** just walking out.
Sorry for the rant. I'm better now I think.

On lunch then? Why would I want to be on my food? Last night I would have had tarter sauce on my *** (which I guess isn't too much out of the usual for me...) from my McNasty Fish. Why the **** can't they put the fish square on the bun straight. Nearly every one I get, the damn fish is hanging 1/3 off to one side, and the cheese melts it to the bun so you can't fix it without ripping the bottom bun.

I just checked the calendar and its been 49 days since I bought a pack of cigarettes. I cant honestly say since I quit smoking, cause since then I've bummed like 4-5. But its been at least 3 weeks since I even bummed one, so technically 4-5 cigarettes in a 49 day period pretty much means I quit.
I feel so much healthier, and my bank account looks a lot better too! After smoking daily for 10 years I had enough. I quit one other time but started back up again out of stupidity. I'm ******* tired of smelling like a dirty ash tray at the end of the day. Not to mention ash all over the car, cost per pack, wheezing when I lay down to sleep, randomly coughing, needing one every time something goes wrong, needing one every time I want to reward myself, needing one with ever beer, etc etc. Feels good to say **** it and quit.

I quit about 6 months ago. In that time I bummed 2 at hunting camp a month ago, but that's it. Can't say I feel all that much better, but my blodd pressure is under control now. I might actually live to see my son graduate now.

I bought some of this stuff Friday and after the first half gallon, I have to say I LOVE this stuff. The first sip was a little... different, but it grew on me fast. Far less calories and fat than dairy milk, and far more good things in each cup. Tastes great, like regular whole milk, just with a little sweet almond kick. Not to thrilled with the $3 for a half gallon, but good things don't come cheap. I do think I will stick with this for a while, dairy just doesn't agree with me it seems.
You two suck. Horrible. HORRIBLE. At first it was a little different, "hmm...this can go either way" sorta flavor. For me, it went towards waste-o-money. I keep giving it a try and...ugh. even the dog won't lick it. Maybe I'll try the vanilla flavor.
