Oh this is NOT going to be a good day
I woke up this morning cold, and not feeling so hot. My asthma is bothering me, but with this cold I kind of expect it. My stomach feels....off. Can't explain it. I got up, dressed up, and showed up at work. I'm wishing I hadn't.
I walked in to my office mate walking out....going home sick an hour into his shift. His stomach revolted. Oh great. The department emergency cell phone, which is what the manufacturing suites call when they have a facilities issue, was left on my desk. Looks like I get to play dispatcher even more today. Ok. I go to get a cup of coffee, and I am seeing people in suits all over the place. I stop and ask the Head Admin (same woman who complained about my t-shirt yesterday) what was up to be told a MAJOR customer is coming in at 8:30am. Ok.
Getting called at 8am and told I need to get someone to vaccuum the rugs in the vestibules in 2 buildings and pick up the cigarette butts off the ground NOW (and I do mean she practically yelled NOW) is not priceless. I told her I would see what I could do, and was told NO....DO IT NOW. So I snapped back with my own "I have to call someone to get them on it and I can't do that while I am on the phone with you". Does it end there? Of course not.
While I am trying to locate the cleaning company, the admin is barrelling down the hall at me and I'm ready to punt her. She wants to know why this isn't done daily. My response? It may have something to do with us changing cleaning companies at the end of the month. I wanted to say it isn't my job to keep tabs on the cleaning company. I wanted to say I am a compliance coordinator, not housekeeping. I wanted to say she had better start speaking to me with a little more respect. I said none of those things, because with my luck if I say something to my boss I will be assigned it.
It's 8:06am. I can has home now?
