Yesterday I thought I'd treat myself to a Timmy's on the way to work since I'd left the house early enough. Bad decision. I got there, saw the drive-through line was short, and pulled into line. Worse decision.
It took me 10 minutes just to buy a coffee and a croissant.
At first I sat in my car and grumbled at the thought of people lining up for drive-through in order to buy enough to feed their whole office at once. But as I sat there a little longer, I watch the people place their orders fast enough at the speaker, but then have to wait an eon before inching up to the window. And then I watched one of the employees come out of the back door to slowly don a pair of gloves and a traffic vest in order to sweep up the garbage that no one had had the chance to litter out of their window yet that day.
*Growl*
To top it all off, after I finally got my breakfast, raced to work, and squealed into a parking spot, my coffee got knocked over as I was reaching for my bag and fell top down onto the floor of the car.
*blech*
Oh, and to top all of that off, there was a client waiting to be let into the office by me in order to drop off some paperwork--a client with the WORST B.O. EVER. Nice guy, really, but he just reeks! Talk about starting your day off on the wrong foot; the rest of the day just followed the same, miserable suit.
*sigh*
Today wasn't all that much better. It took me 5 hours to do something that should have taken me only 1, just because my boss decided that he didn't like the address labels after he'd approved them 3 days ago. I stayed 2 extra hours today to try to get myself organized and I'm still in disarray.
Optimistically: because of my boss' indecision, I taught myself to photoshop today.
And bonus: Adam the air-conditioner guy came in today, just to say "hi" and smile at me.
Today wasn't that bad.
