I am no longer as furious as I was this afternoon. So I spent lots of time being furious which means all the CRAP I was going to do after work has been put off. Crap.
So. They changed my schedule at SkyWest. Again. And they didn't tell me until seven hours into the first shift that had changed. I am now working from 5.45 to 14.15 Sunday through Thursday. What pisses me off is not the new schedule. It's the fact that they didn't bother to tell me. One of the people on my shift with me frowned when I said I should get going, and said 'Hunh. Angie said you were on until two-fifteen'.
And, by golly, I was. So they got me to drive a car. And they got me to cut my hair. And they got me to wear their costume. And sometimes I feel that now they're just yanking on my leash to see if they can make me dance. I don't want to think what they'll do now that they've found they can.
Debbie was, as usual, understanding and accomodating. I told her my days off had changed and she shook her head and smiled and said let's get the schedule and I'll rewrite it.
Anyway. I have a lot of things to do. So I'll be going.

Just in case you needed some, you know, reality checks.
I know what it feels like...

And Karsten assures me that I look just like a Congressman.

I didn't notice that part. I think I'll hide now.

Date: 2002-09-10 03:41 am (UTC)The way I subdued the homicidal rage was to shout along with my TMBG mix disc while driving home. 'Cowtown' was especially good for this, as was 'New York City'.
Cuz everyone's my friend in New York City.
what about

But, if you look at it, having Friday and Saturday off will be more accomodating to a normal social life.
