I think I'm in charge of the division today. There's me, a secretary, and the guy that started about 3 months ago.

Why the star-spangled HELL does Alka-Seltzer Multi-Symptom Day and Night NOT have the recommended DOSAGE on it? It tells you not to take more than 10 in a day; of the day? of the night? WTF?

I'm going with every 4 hours. And yes, I googled it. Doesn't say.

When I feel better, I will write them a stern e-mail. Doesn't the FDA REQUIRE dosages to be on meds? HRMPH.

(I am Grumpy McGrumpsterina today.)

My boss drove three+ hours to come in for our half-day of work today. And is doing the reverse commute at 1. I told her we would have understood if she had worked from home!

I am suspicious there's no one here to send me home.

Ah yes. You can imagine how grateful I am that they announce early release days in advance here. It's the best!

I am down below 50 messages in my inbox, and they do all need dealing with, I think. Just, you know, not today.

We are freed at 2pm. My boss isn't even in the office. She's been taking the last of her vacation days, like me and half the department. This always happens - I get to year's end with over a week vacation, I take it because I don't want to lose it, and then I end up working every single day anyway. It's frustrating.

McFee is home sick with a fever. I fear it is the flu and she will be out for days.. wahhhh.

we are being lazy. pumpkin bread pudding is about to go in the oven. I should probably also shower, we need to go exchange some clothes today.

I have a seriously bad attitude at work today so I went home for an early lunch. Feel free to skip the rest of the rant. First, my #1 support person has been worthless since her daughter's due date was on the 21st and she hasn't delivered yet. She was off Friday, and is off again today, but when she has been here the last couple weeks she is either running out to take her daughter to appointments, or on the phone with her. Next, my tracking shows my Nook tablet was attempted delivery to the office on Saturday and I would have to reschedule deliver or pick up at PO, so I went to PO and of course it was out for deliver today because our building never gets mail on Saturday. Also, we have had a bunch of annoying support calls mostly that have nothing to do with my actual product. I have refused to talk to any of the customers and made my receptionist take messages because I would be rude to them. I did fix their problems.

I thought it would improve my mood to complain, but it didn't. Maybe I should include a drink with my early lunch. Grrrr.

Call it a day, Laura!

As your sister in rantypants, I concur with Jesse.

I pretty much think everyone should call it a day. Lord knows I have!

I called it a day yesterday! It was a sick day, but still.
