So yesterday, I took myself off a project at work that I've been working on/helping out on since November. One of the guys I work with on the project brought in a complete douche bag that 90% of my department won't work with. I won't work with the fuck either. We just got him OFF the project a month or so ago and now he's put back on. What made it worse is the fact that we already had a plan to go in effect. We consulted on it together, just like every other part of the project since he came on board. Now, he just blatantly bypassed everything and put the douche bag to work with us. No discussion, no choice. So, I walked off of the project and told him it's in his hands now and to have fun and that was the end of my part of the conversation. He tried to explain, but I told him I didn't care and to have fun with him. Then we went on break.
Today, I dropped Laura off at work and went to get gas before I head into the workplace. My debit card is declined. This is weird so I try again. Declined. Used my CC and went to work. As soon as I got in I checked my bank account. To make a long story short, my bank account has been compromised. I had just over 320 bucks in there and there is a 720 dollar charge against my account that has NOT gone through yet. I was and am infuriated and damn near started crying at work. Of course because it's the 4th of July, no one from my bank was around to answer phones and none of the branch locales were open. So tomorrow, instead of going to NY for booth clean up, I get to start calling and making arrangements try and get my monies back and then I'm closing out my account. This is the second time it's happened with that bank and I'm not letting it happen a third. *sigh*
So as not to end on a glum note, we went to Mother MacRican's house for a picnic. The evening was filled with food, family and booze. It was a good time.
