Musings and Gripes
I am just not sure how I will survive 4 months of floating around with the same people. It's been a little over a week and I am thoroughly annoyed with the lot of them. Every time someone talks to me, I want to yell at them. All I can manage are smart mouthed comments, and I am argumentative with everyone. I have to pray constantly that God keep my mouth shut and that I try not to snap at anyone or automatically react angrily to anyone or anything. I have to remember to think first, speak later, which normally I'm good for doing.
So the other day a friend of mine was handed some coffee filters and given instructions for them. A "special" girl approached him and asked what they were for so he replied, "they're for the toilets in berthing and they are even scented to fight the smell when people go #2." She stopped to process that and then rolled her eyes telling him he was silly. I tried not to laugh because people pick on her so much but the way he said it was hilarious!!!! Straight faced and serious and believable. If I were gullible, I'd have thought he was serious. The girl sitting next to me, laughing hysterically at the other girl's expense, is the same girl who believed another guy when he said her workspace had lemon scented trash bags unlike the rest of the ship. Here's your sign.
What a way to wake up, jumping out of your rack in the dark and right into a puddle of water. Good morning! Your berthing is flooded and nobody wants to clean it up so you'll have to do it, you and the other highest ranking people there. The laziness of these people is unbelievable. I'm lazy, and I'll be the first to admit it but only when it affects only me! You know what sounds fabulous? Pizza. Think Monday I'll order a pizza.
