My Rant
Ok, my turn. Gather round my friends and listen to the tale of the crappy weekend.
Friday 9:45am- 5 minuets until the end of my algebra class, I'm putting away my books and thinking about how I can convince the pretty girl sitting beside me to go to the movies with me tonight. My daydream is brought to a screeching halt as my professor announces he is giving a pop quiz for the last 5 mins, 1 question, either you make an A or an F. After struggling to put an answer down I turn in my paper and leave the class. Pretty girl is already gone and I've just started my weekend with a bad grade in an already difficult class. Oh well, at least its the weekend.
10:00am- After fighting my way out of the parking lot and driving across town I pick up my PC from the computer store. (It died on Wed. and despite my best efforts I couldn't revive it.) I hand the guy $80.00 cash for fixing it then lug it to my Jeep.
10:05am- I'm out of the parking lot and starting my 30min drive home. Its cold outside and raining again.
10:30am- I'm about 5 mins from home when a little red car passes my going the other direction, BAM, a rock is thrown up and hits my windshield taking a chip out of it. I say a few choice words wonder how much this is gonna cost to fix.
11:00am- After getting home, inspecting my windshield, getting out my PC and hooking it back up, and feeding the dog I finally sit down and turn my comp on. Hmmmmm, whats this ? An error message ? I'm f*cking shocked!!!! My PC works but its not fixed completely, now I have to take it back to the store next week because they are not open on weekends.
12:00pm- I eat a sandwich, take some aspirin and lay down for a nap.
12:15pm- The phone rings and like a moron I pick it up. Its work, and guess what ? I'm the lucky winner of 2 days worth of overtime!!! They need me (read forcing me) to work Sat. and Sun. I almost never have sat and sun off, my days are usually like mon/tue or thur/fri. But I got lucky this week and had fri/sat/sun. Or at least I did until fri!!!!! So I get my jobsite assignments, which suck, and I hang up the phone. I then say a few more choice words.
12:25pm- So much for a nap, this is now my only day off this week. I have to get some stuff done. I spend most of the rest of the day doing some chores around the house and stopping to watch some soap operas, all the while thinking how until 9:45 this morning my biggest problem was trying to descide what cheezy pick-up line to try out.
5:00pm- Most of my Friday is over, I spend the evening watching tv and messing around on the internet.
Saturday 8:30am- I awake to more cold temps outside and more rain. I pretty much spend the whole day doing much of what I did fri.
3:00pm- I start getting ready for work, 8 hours of standing around in the rain waiting for something to happen at the shopping center that I'll probably get blamed for no matter how I handle it.
4:00pm- I'm at work, I got the crappy radio you have to hold "just right" to transmit. All seems quiet, hope midnight gets here fast.
11:00pm- Everything is closed now, an hour left of this miserable day.
12:00am- At home, I hit the shower and then the bed.
Sunday- Much the same, only I spend it at an industrial facility in front of a wall of cameras. The chip in my glass has now turned into a 2 inch crack, to late now for a home repair kit. My comps still beeping at me, I have class first thing in the morning and I'm sitting here complaining on a BB, guess I should go to sleep now.
Finally tally-
one weeked of work
-80 dollars for a non-fixed comp
a cracked windshield
a grade that won't help my GPA
a cold (from the wet/cold temp)
probably some flames for spelling errors in this post
and now monday!!!
Ok, rant over. I know, its life, to bad life really sucks sometimes.
