how is it possible to be this irritated on a wed?
i am so fed up with the following things:
1. conference calls. I would like to know why it is necessary to have a conf call every other day, right in the middle of my day, to discuss sales progress. newsflash: the more I’m on the phone, the more calls I can make, hence the more work I can get done. and side note: if I live in CA and you assign me a territory on the east coast, it is not ok for you to be surprised if I haven’t done all my paperwork by YOUR end of day. I’m not finished yet!
2. blue tooths. I have had enough of thinking that people are talking to ME.
3. daylight savings. I’m so confused, what exactly are we saving here? we are certainly not in charge of daylight, mother nature is, so what is the point in pretending that we affect what’s going on with the way earth and sun and time do their thing? (I know, very scientific)
4. being “late” every single month. I take BC pills religiously so wtf – this is becoming extremely stressful and costly. do you know how much money I’m shelling out for pee sticks just for peace of mind?!
5. when people break plans. plans are like reservations my friends, you make them so there is nothing/no one else that can take that spot. it is inappropriate to “reserve” someone and then to just not call or show. think about the Seinfeld episode with the car reservation – same thing!
**one thing that would make me happy today, would be for you to vote for the following bar as one of the best in my city: http://kcra.cityvoter.com/aura/biz/172821. I'm helping them with PR & it would be fantastic if I could get them up to #1!!

so you're sayin there's a chance...
the other night i heard one of the best lines i've ever heard:
"yeah i'd love to see you again, can i get your number? oh, but just fyi, i may not be available to hang out a lot. you see, i'm a marine biologist so i'm only in town a couple months out of the year. the rest of the time i'm in alaska studying the migration patterns of whales..."
this is one of the best excuses i've ever heard. kudos for whoever figured this one out, i mean it's not like you would ever really know until you got serious with the person, but then how could you, they're in "alaska" 1/2 the time.
awesome.
