Stop the Madness!
May. 1st, 2006 01:16 pmGah am in work today which is a downer. It’s a bank holiday and gorgeous out and I’m stuck in with my co-workers one of whom has brought in her i-pod sound system. The beauty of i-pods is that when they are plugged into your ears you can listen to your music safe in the knowledge however questionable your musical taste is, at least your not inflicting it on anyone else. Not so S. She seems positively intent on playing us the entire content of the damned thing over the speakers. It’s the i-pod of questionable love ballads is what it is. Every song from Bryan Adams to Phil Collins to the Bee Gees to Mariah Carey is being played. It’s not like I hate these artists I don’t, it’s just the fact that the songs I’m listening to seem to be the most depressing ever. Which isn’t fun when you are feeling super aware of your singledom.
Oh yeah and the fucking job I had trying to get in to the car park. Usually I don’t bring my car in to work but on bank holidays I drive because it’s quicker then waiting for the train. So I’m at the entrance of the car park waiting for the gate to open. Waiting and waiting and waiting. Eventually I ring my co worker who asks security to open the gate for me. The fucking moron won’t. Why? Because I’m not on the list and nobody told him that I would have a car. First of all what fucking list? Is this something he made up when he was bored? I’ve worked the last 3 bank holidays and there was never any mention of a list. The car thing yea I can kinda understand. It’s up to my manager to let security know if there will be any extra cars and I'd imagine my asshead of a boss forgot but still. So finally when I get out of the car and go up to the desk who pops up from behind the desk but his girlfriend. What. The. Fucking. FUCK?!?! He’s sitting there at the desk and her head pops up beside him?!?! Dudes, not in fucking work. So after getting a lecture by him about how my line manager needs to explain to the *junior* members of staff the protocol (in his fucking head) were I had to grip my phone so tight it nearly shattered to stop myself losing the head at him, he finally deigned to let my car enter the precious magical fucking car park. Either way I’m reckoning I’ll be making a complaint against the gimpy security guard and his girlfriend. Wanky fucking Wanker
Happy May Day!
