(no subject)
less awesome:
months ago (when of montreal first announced the new tour dates) i requested tomorrow off. all along i thought it had been approved. several weeks ago i noticed i wasn't on the calendar, so i asked about it. sure enough it was denied because 4 teachers already needed coverage. so my plans to go to nyc to see of montreal would never come to fruition. i was upset, got over it, decided to just suck it up and go to work. but i have been checking the calendar a bit obsessively, hoping somehow i could get the day off. when i checked today, there was a new explosion of names of people who have tomorrow off. at least ten new people. and while only a few of the new ones are teachers (the rest are psych staff / OTs / case managers), WHAT THE FUCK? i don't often get upset at work, but i was pissed off today. also, it's been a really bad week. really bad. i've spent nearly half of it on the floor restraining someone or somehow dealing with behaviors. being the passive aggressive asshole that i am, i decided i'd call out on principle tomorrow. then i remembered i really need pick up my check to pay my bills.
let this be a lesson: sign up for direct deposit.
new mission: find someone to go to boston with for the oM show at the end of october. okay--go! (this lack of friends who share my musical interests thing seems to be a theme lately.)
