unfortunately my dumb ass did decide to go back to the gym after a break this week and I'm so sore LMAO I played myself I didn't expect it but that's what happens when you take three weeks off I GUESS auughhh
we're building a huge commercial exhibit booth and there are videos and photos and guides and Mr Man has to just "figure it all out" and isn't listening to me and I'm gonna scream (I have been right every single time because I watched the video lol)
.......bbbbbuuut here's why i don't actually want to listen to anything anyone else says and i don't actually care and let me change subjects until this meeting has gone on an hour overtime and everyone is so ground down they simply don't have the energy to argue anymore"
SCERAMS INTO THE ETHER god i am almost. almost done with this stupid work thing. the deadline is tomorrow but i have only... maybe like 2-3 hours work left on it.... (yes i was working on it until now but also i don't want to work over the weekend so this was my choice instead)
it's like that game where you have to figure out how many jelly beans are in a jar but my concept of numbers and space is so bad I was always laughably off
my coworker who was supposed to help me with this hasn't supported me at all and I've done 90% of it so i just emailed my manager and said i'll do the rest monday because I refuse to work over the weekend
I don't understand why people feel the need to overshare on email..... i work with a lot of freelancers and most of them are normal but occasionally there's a weirdo and if they're a weirdo who does a great job ok but still
you know what it is. it's only people of a certain age lmao
SORRY THIS IS PROBABLY MEAN it's just funny, there are a few people i work with who are probably like my mom's age and they all like to tell me all about their day and their family and their cat
like this guy just emailed me and he could have said "do you have any projects for me?" but he also insisted on telling me his wife is sick and he has a bunch of errands to do and also it's snowing and also next week he'll be on vacation
I'd better get a significant promotion by year end or they're gonna be absolutely shook by how I'm about to drop 80% of what I'm doing now and how funny it'll be when no one else does it either
(I talked to them about a promotion but i got "earliest is end of year" idk man)
I'm just reusing this plurk but it's so insane we have to build the convention booth ourselves LMAO the union people who are supposed to build it actually came to scold us but my boss refuses to pay for their services
anyway what I'm saying is he should pay my gym membership, unbelievable how many heavy things I'm constantly carrying at this desk job
I wish I didn't actually care if anything looked good or worked out but unfortunately I do care, quite a lot, so I'm the one showing up early and staying late to make sure things actually get done and don't look embarrassing
WHATEVER i don't have to work customer facing this year, I just have a few business meetings so the rest of the weekend I should actually be able to have time to myself and maybe even enjoy the con
thoughts and prayers please I'm trying to survive the week
to do physical labor lol
and my coworker keeps getting conveniently injured before every convention season so she can't help with anything
I'm tired of all men with egos
boss: [says something stupid no one wants to do]
me, in my best Diplomatic Voice: "here are some reasonable reasons we shouldn't do this"
....
.......bbbbbuuut here's why i don't actually want to listen to anything anyone else says and i don't actually care and let me change subjects until this meeting has gone on an hour overtime and everyone is so ground down they simply don't have the energy to argue anymore"
take a shot
jump in the ocean
writing an email to my manager it's impossible to hit the deadline he asked for and idk what else to say man
someone else should try being good at theirs for once
reuse this for family I guess. but I'm tired and the desert is hot and family is frustrating and I feel like I need a whole extra weekend day :/
not actually free from work but at least I get to do this after
whatever i am vibing now. and my mom made and brought me lunch while I was deep in the spreadsheet mines
my mom gave it to me because it was An Anime when I was like. twelve. and i love it despite not knowing anything lmao
you tried and that's what matters
"you got lucky. it's only 100 this week"
no it's just not as hot as it could be ๐
back to work l o l
made me a piรฑa colada!!!
did taste like soap
I wish I could just not work next week but I had to set everything aside to do this project so next week I have to do MY actual job lol
then I'm at AX for literally most of the next week TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY!!!! absolute insanity
too fucking many
from here
they didn't
no more people inside
SDCC is actually organized and their volunteers are actually trained lol
I wanted to go to the gym ugh I'm so mad about
all this computer work with no time to uncrunchify but soon. soon I'll be free
my coworker who was supposed to help me with this hasn't supported me at all and I've done 90% of it so i just emailed my manager and said i'll do the rest monday because I refuse to work over the weekend

it's so hard being professional when you just want to scream like a goat into the zoom call lol
pretty much everyone else i never want to see again lol
how do i professionally say "I feel like I'm doing fucking everything around here and I have the notes and results to prove it in fact"
(I talked to them about a promotion but i got "earliest is end of year" idk man)
finally home after day 1 of setup
anyway what I'm saying is he should pay my gym membership, unbelievable how many heavy things I'm constantly carrying at this desk job
never mind working until 11 pm it is
it shouldn't actually take this long to put up stuff for a booth this size
so sick of the same shit every year
so relieved I don't have to actually work the booth and talk to customers all weekend thank fuck
