Fuck the system
So I'm nowhere close to finishing the appendices for these mf-ing binders, I'll probably run out of the green paper I use for tab inserts, and I just walked away from my desk for 30 minutes for some ice cream "social" thingy they're having. My main boss is in Chi-town till tomorrow and it's just her coworker here. What does she give me to do? HER expense report for 3 of her trips. And miscellaneous bs as well. So fuck it. If I can take time out of this project to do her work, I can take a break and update lj. And facebook. And check my email. Oops. Oh well.
So the new girl next to me is pretty nice, and I'm actually being more social today. Notice, I went to an ice cream SOCIAL before. Woo-hoo. That basically meant that there was a Good Humor and Water Ice cart in the conference room. I wasn't gonna go, but she asked me to go with her. As resident newbies I thought we might as well stick together. As a temp, I don't get involved in office stuff, whether it's gossip or parties or whatnot. I probably won't be around in a week, so what's the point of making an effort. And my laziness reaches new heights.
Speaking of, it's getting harder and harder to wake up in the morning. I even went to bed at 10:30 and just passed out. Ya know how you wake up in the middle of the night and before you look at the clock you're praying that it's not close to when you have to get up? Usually I look at the clock and it's 5:45. But this morning, oh sweet lord, it was only 3! How sad is it when the thought of 3 1/2 more hours makes me sooo happy?
I'm def thinking that this job will last till next week. And none of it is my fault. Those appendices take forever due to Excel formatting being programmed to suck. If they just put the info in a worksheet and let me worry about it, things would go a lot faster. But at this point only 3 states are done, CA is about halfway (when I got asked to do the expense report), and there are 4 or 5 states left. Awesome. The money will be nice, but I was looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow and/or Monday and NOT taking NJTransit at rush hour. At least I'm not flying anywhere.
Alright, this woman password protected her worksheet, so I need to go get it. Oh I wanna sleep.
