my my my, ever do something really stupid and instead of being smart about the situation and keeping quiet about the mistake for the simple cause of seeming halfway intelligent to your peers, you tell everyone you can cause you think it's funny? well yea...I'm doing that right now. Heres my story. It's not that good of a story, i really shouldnt have lead it up so heartfelt.
ok this morning i wake up for a morning meeting at work. i set my alarm. i have every intention of making it to this meeting and then going to church afterwards. shoot, maybe even making it early. the point of this meeting is to introduce the new boss i'm getting so first impressionions are everything. in fact i think yesterday while working he secretly came up to me without me knowing it was my new boss and acted like he was going to buy a printer. im still not sure it was him, but i could tell something was funny about the way he was acting...they are not good actors. but still i did everything wrong with my selling technic cause i just didnt care at the second. i was nice though. oh yea...back to the story. ok well i wake up at 8:45 just as i had set my alarm. i sit and check my lj account and my myspace and my email, the usual. i plan to give myself 15 minutes of wake up time. then i get really thirsty and crave oj, so i go in the kitchen real quick to get some oj before i start getting ready. then on the way back to my room i notice that the answering machine is blinking, i press the button to hopefully hear "hey jonathan this is tim from best buy just letting you know the meeting has been canceled", i always hope to hear stuff like that but..no. anyways it comes on and the little answering maching lady says "sunday 9:03" and i think to myself "hmm, the time has to be set wrong on this cause...the meeting starts at 9.............oh God.........im supposed to be there at 9........wow.......im supposed to be there at 9." i walk to my room and i can't beleive what just happened. its too late to even try to make it because the soonest i could get there is 10 and the meeting is over at 10:30. wow, i know its not that great of story, and i think i did a great job of turning that into a long story. but im just that stupid, had to let everyone know. i actually set my alarm for 8:45 to be at a 9 o'clock meeting, i live 30 minutes away from work by the way. ugh, whats worse is i thought alot about it, i kept thinking "i have to get up at 8:45 for the meeting" why am i so dumb. now i have to quit before they catch onto the fact that im 39% retarded and i need a nanny to watch over me while i pee. i just feel dumb.
ok onto other stuff...i was thinking about stuff i hate the other day because i really like it when i read other peoples "i hate" lists, i like them alot more when they are very unique. ok heres mine...i hate it when you go to the gas station and the person in front of you doesnt pull all the way up the the first pump so everyone can have a pump and not have to wait for them to finish...ok thats it for now.
