Finally, I'm not in the bad mood at work

I knew the day was going to come. My co-worker from h@ll (aka Texas) who thinks she runs the whole place while doing hardly any work, has been knocked down a peg or two by my boss. I really didn’t believe that my boss had it in him. I really thought that Texas was going to start to cry and he was just going to crumble under the tears. But I guess he has finally had it.

 

She is so trying to be “happy” by badly humming and putting on a fake smile, but when she doesn’t think anyone notices, she is muttering to herself and slamming things around. (Just because I have headphones on and I’m working on a video doesn’t mean that I can’t tell what she is doing.) She is having fights with the Russian Chick (yep, I can’t understand a word that she says either because she has such a heavy Russian accent, but then I don’t yell at her, I just get her boss). She is taking 6 hours on ordering supplies. She has been up and down stairs so many times it’s sickening. I have heard the “I don’t need to work here” and “I don’t have to put up with this” about 30 times in less than a half hour.

 

Maybe she has finally been called out on the way things are. Maybe she was put on notice that the boss does realize that she disappears for hours upon hours without anyone noticing where she is. Maybe she was called out for saying yesterday that no one pitches in when she isn’t here (yeah sure... the paper fairies come in every morning and fill the copier, fax machine and printers up with paper!) Maybe she finally got the review that she was due. Maybe she was told why I don’t talk to her anymore and how I don’t ask her to do anything (because she is all about saying she’ll do something and NOT following thru on it). Maybe she was called out on offering to train everyone on how to use our new fax services and how exactly 0 people have been trained since last week.

Sigh... this is enough to make a girl happy!
