Crappy Weather Day

Anyone who lives in Southwestern Ontario this weekend knows it's a crappy weekend because of the weather.  There's an ice-storm in progress and it's providing a good reason to stay inside.

What's on my mind today?  After having a 8 hour suspension from work, I am glad I cancelled the car reservation that I made for this weekend.  I don't have the money for it and I wouldn't want to be out driving in this weather.

Right now as it stands, it has been a year and a half since my car broke down and died.  Which leaves me few options on how to get out of town.  One of them being renting a car.  I love the option of being able to rent a car from a local place but it sucks to pay out more money than what it's worth.  I definitely don't look like this when it happens.

Unfortunately, I'm still looking at a debt that I'm paying off from two years ago.  Between the "special assessment" for the condo that I live in, the car repairs and the already existing  on the line of credit, it has been a long road to paying nearly $7000 completely off.  This is based on the fact that I don't have a boyfriend/husband or a room-mate to help out with the household expenses.

Okay, now I'm miffed about what I've just found.  Enterprise rent-a-car sucks the big one.  I don't know how many times I needed to rent a car for just a day and Enterprise doesn't do it with any deals.  I've found a site https://www.priceline.com/ that provides multiple deals that include renting a car for a day - even if it's in the middle of the week.  What gives with Enterprise only giving you a deal if you rent for a week or weekend?

Oh well, I've found a new site that does what I'd like.  Now back to the piss, poor day that has me doing housework that I don't want to do.  I'm finally getting around to doing laundry, light dusting and general housework.  Did I mention that I don't like doing it?  Point being, I'm doing it now so that I can do what I want when there's nice weather outside.  I hope that it isn't too bad for my trip into work tomorrow on the bus.

For my co-workers - You know who you are

I know who you are.  This is not my judgemental face.  This is me using all the restraint from doing or saying something stupid.

When good people are punished.

After many years of putting up with BS at work, I've gotten my first day off - un-paid. All because of a co-worker who hasn't got the sense that God gave a little chicken.  It doesn't matter at the moment what went wrong or why, it just did.

I'm very aware that I'll never win the Miss Congeniality award based on my work life.  However, I've got a decent  work ethic.  I go to work and get paid to do work.  My co-workers, are the laziest people I've seen.  They believe it's a social club and not a hospital.

All those lazy, socially inept people seem to think it's okay to crap on those who actually work.  The only thing saving them is the union.  Seriously, management needs to crack down on the BS that's going on.  Showing up late for work, standing around for great length of time and complaining that they are the hardest working people when they haven't done anything in two hours. It bothers me to no end.

Right now I just needed to vent a little bit without saying much.  That's something that I'm good at.  Talking lots without saying much.  Can you tell I that I don't have an English degree?

Oh well, I'm back to work tomorrow and there's going questions.  Not that it's anybody's business why I got suspended.  Karma is a bitch and it's going to slap somebody in the face some day.  I just hope I'm on vacation or retired when it happens.
