Ugh and yay.
Ugh.
Today's been a shitty day, overall. First of all, I got in this fight with J online over something to do with this chick he's been seeing. Apparently, he wasn't very responsive to the jokes I was making about how they always go back to his room and "do math homework". Heh, I thought it was funny. Anyway, he told me that I make her uncomfortable with my smartass comments, and somehow decided to wait until he was really pissed off about my joking around before he decided to tell me that it wasn't appreciated.
That's the thing that pisses me off about the whole situation. Very female thing to do. Also, when I went to apologize and tell him that I wouldn't joke with her anymore, he tells me to fuck off. I'm dumbfounded. He tells me that "it's a matter of respect and common sense". Apparently not. Anyway, I hope that all blows over.
Note to self: sensitive subject. Secondly, work is starting to get frustrating. Brandon is so hit and miss with his moods when he comes in. One of my personal pet peeves is having to be around someone who makes me feel like I have to tip toe so as not to set them off. Brandon lately wins the gold in that event.
When I first started working here, he would pick on me about being a workaholic, and now he gets angry at me for chatting online. There are far more examples of this hit-and-miss
management style, and it's got my head spinning and me beginning to dislike coming to work. Sometimes we all need a break, even if it's 10 minutes, to just release and let loose.. especially on 12 hour days. Hell, he spends MANY hours chatting online during the day anyway. His justification is that he's been here longer. I can understand that, and honestly, I don't have a problem with that; I just need a clear cut idea of what's okay to do and what's not.
Yay.
Jamie is finally here. I'm hoping to see her tomorrow evening, because I'm gonna be in San Diego the next 4 days. Can't wait to finally see 'er.
