   Welcome to the Rant Zone!

Yes, it's Monday and time for a cranky Kitsune to rant away. If you don't want to read this, think of happy fluffy things like ponies and puppies.

Rant #1: I was in a halfway decent mood when I got to work today. Then the boss comes up to me and says, "You, know, when someone comes to the desk and tells you that I said they could take something, you should call me and ask about it." I asked what she was talking about, and she said that on Wednesday, someone came and took some carpet that was in a room in the north building. I told her I didn't work Wednesday. Then she said it was on Tuesday and that someone paged the maintenance guy and he went to help the guy load the carpet up. I told her I had no idea what she was talking about because I HAVE NO F***ING IDEA WHAT SHE'S TALKING ABOUT!!!!! She just walked away and said something about not being able to get ahold of the guy that took the carpet. Now, I don't know who it was that said I was the one that paged the maintenance man, but I don't like being "accused" of something I had no idea that went on. Man, I hate this place.

Rant #2: My coworker has to go smoke at least once every hour in one of the back offices. I'm so sick of cigarette smoke. I sneezed the other day and my mom says, "Are you coming down with something?" I said, "When don't I have something with my sinuses?" Then she called me a hypochondriac. I let that slide and then mentioned the fact that I work three out of four days with a smoker and end up with my sinuses clogged up and hurting. She agreed that that is a problem.

Rant #3: Not really a rant, but more of an observation. My first van run today was to take one of the railroaders back to the yard. He wanted to stop for a burger and at the grocery store. Not a problem. However, while waiting for him at the burger joint, I was watching traffic and there was this car with a Student Driver sticker on the side. The asshole in the pickup next to me had to show how much "better" he was than the rest of the idiots by beeping at the guy in the Student Driver car. I was in a really foul mood when this was going on and had half a mind to flip the pickup guy off, but that would reflect badly on the image of the motel. But... seeing what my attitude on this place is, I don't think it would make any difference.

Well, that does it for the ranting. I'm sure there's more that I could rant about, but I just don't have the energy to do so.

On a lighter note, I spent money at Barnes & Noble again today! I got the latest Kenshin, a boxed origami thing, and a how to draw book. I shouldn't have bought any of that. I just look at it this way. It will cheer me up slightly when I go look at the stuff at home after work tonight.

Also... Mom & Dad left this morning at sometime before I was fully awake to head out to Maryland for at least 5 months to do their volunteer work. It's gonna be weird without them around the house, but it's also kinda nice. I can get my manga into the house easier when they're not there!

Well, off to find something else to do here. I got through all that posted today. Hmm... I still have email to read.

Laters!
