I hate to say that LiveJournal hasn't been my #1 priority of late. Somewhere, over the summer, I just lost the will to communicate, or so it seems.
Let's sum up the last four days this way: If you care a tube of lube around campus, it'll hurt MUCH less when they force you to bend over and shove something up your ass. Yeah, it's been a great four days.
I've been "applying" for my Associate's Degree since last August. They keep losing the paperwork or something (no one really knows what happens to it, apparently). I think that deserves a full refund WITH my degree, don't you?
Apparently the one card reader at Center Ice that is open in the morning considers my meal plan to be Top Dog when it's really the 15 Meal Plan. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. It's definately a confusing thing.
Oh, here's a great idea! Let's double book a class and then re-assign the students in that class to completely different times that completely interfer with their schedules! That sounds like fun!
OH! and my personal favorite. Let's hire a Hall Director with his head so far up his ass that he can make bogus decisions like "I don't like how the DSAs have filled out the schedule, so, mid-week, we're going to completely re-do the scheduling and ALL THEY CAN WORK ARE NIGHT SHIFTS! WTF?!?!?! I went from a midling/fair schedule to one that is complete and utter bullshit. I was maxed out before and I'm maxed out now only I'm maxed out at night. AND OTHERS STILL AREN'T PICKING UP THE EXTRA SLACK! When I discussed this with the moronic jackass, all I got was a two hour lecture about his plan for the hall. Granted, when people are perfect and work the way you expect them to, it might just work. But, nope...I'm left picking up TONS of pieces. I'll be working on 0 all semesters and it's really not fair. He did NOT take into account that some of us aren't just students. We DO have commitments OUTSIDE of the desk. He was completely unreasonable about the "inconvenience" of hiring more staff. There were only about five shifts that needed to be filled. It should have been easy to find people to fill them. Now, I'm stressed out and upset for no good reason.
I think Leroy, the head of the housing department, might be hearing from me about the desk situation pretty soon.
I get to go home this weekend. I hope it helps me to unwind. Probably, it won't...but there's always hope, right?
This was supposed to be my "breezy" semester and I'm already more stressed than I have been in the past...and that's pretty messed up.
