You can't fix stupid

Sammy Dog being too cute.

So the Co-hort in training  goes out and finds that all the parts that were supposed to be reworked by the best of the worst sort companies are not re-worked. They are marked reworked, they just did not do the work. Co-hort is really unhappy and calling all peoples who are just not doing their damn jobs. This is gonna get ugly and now I have to institute the Rules Of Engagement, or I Will Have Your Ass if you can't do the fucking job.

This is all union bullshit, you have to put the union "kids" on the job and they are lazy and stupid. This is gonna be a great launch. This is why vehicles so much, union graft at this point.

I have to have an outfit to wear to corporate this week for a training session. Normally to work I wear jeans, a really nice Tee shirt, expensive shoes, which I need new ones, and a safety vest. This outfit will not work at corporate.

Okay, have to go write sort rules and order new shoes.

We want Pie

These are my new shoes.
I never buy anything so colorful, but these shoes touched my soul.

Big Daddy went to Eastern Market this Saturday morning and came home with the first Michigan strawberries. They are wonderful. We had them Saturday night with just a bit of whipped cream. We had them Sunday morning as strawberry shortcake. We are having strawberry pie for dessert tonight. I am in strawberry heaven.

Saturday night we had rack of lamb. I am not a lamb person. Badger talked up the Australian lamb at Costco so much, I thought we should just go for it. It was wonderful, rack of lamb and I could try this again. Not sure if I am ready for the leg of lamb. Big Daddy says he thinks I only had mutton in the past-making me a non-lamb lover.

Punkin Head gave me my latest laugh, he tells me water fountains out there are called bubblers. That is kinda cute.

Gotta figure out what to do with the extra strawberry pie.

A first for me

I worked 1.5 hours overtime and will get paid for doing so. I am so damn pleased. I used to work all the extra hours for the same price as working 40, and this feels so much better. I keep humming that Money, Money, Money song. I would look it up and post it, but I am exhausted.

I bought a new phone over the Internet yesterday, my Sprint phone does not work at the house and at the plant so what good is it? I am getting a Razr (sp) from Verizen with a bunch of toys. We will see if this works out. Verizen is overnighting it to Big Daddy's work as his admin will sign for it. And he promised not to do more than just charge it up.

I have shoes and underwear for the wedding so I believe I am done shopping. I need to get a dress hemmed and that is that.

The Mormons are slowly trying to move back into the fire house, we have new Slavs and otherwise the neighborhood is quiet.

Need to eat dinner and start it all over again tomorrow, with less drama I hope. I will have to describe the nightmare at work, it is really hilarious.

And we are off and running

Mr. No Fun got the ball rolling as Mr. Big Boss called and asked me when I told him I could start. I told him Monday, so naturally he asked if I could start tomorrow, which is today. He does this every time, neglects to call when he says and asks if I can do something right now or tomorrow. At least I know what to expect. So anyhoo I start tomorrow. I have had 2 phone calls with Mr. No Fun outlining what I need to know and do, one call from my Direct Boss, and one call from one of the plants. And I haven't even started yet. Plant Arrogant wanted my contact information at 6 this morning so thank goodness Mr. No Fun said no, you can have it when she comes in.

Yesterday I bought shoes I am not sure I like, Clark's as Ecco did not have any appropriate styles and I am just not sure they are going to work out. I also bought Clark's socks on sale for 4 bucks a piece and guaranteed for life. I asked just how that worked, you know ratty old socks with a hole and she said just bring them back and you get a new pair, no questions asked. This has to be the best socks ever or a great loss leader.

I need more pants, but I have enough for now.

I am so excited.

Friday the 13th

I am really pissed about the Continental flight that crashed in Buffalo , NY. 15 years ago we knew these planes were not good in weather that included icing conditions. That was I believe a crash in Illinois. The NTSB said so. The FAA said "Oh, well". And today more people died. This is bullshit.

Again, can someone tell me why we actually pay these people on the government payroll to make decisions?

Yes just to keep the 13th going Gregory the worm and I are again on a collision course at Plant Loco. He just can't get his shit together and his boss wants me to do his job, (remember I don't work for these people) and after a day of shit from him and a week of watching him act the ass he gives me a clue about his personal life. This man who eats from a vending machine, who eats potato chips-just wait this gets better-works for the THREE HEADED DOG 12 hours + a day, for 8 hour pay, when he gets home he runs for 2 hours and never sees his CHILDREN. WTF.

Cannot go on any longer on the work front I need to switch to the private life.

I went on the Internet last night and ordered some books. And some really great shoes. First money I have spent on myself in 2 and half months. Some guilt-some can't wait to see the shoes. They were on sale for $34.99.

Punkin Head called me, I love that boy, I love Big Daddy too but he is pissing me off. When I am blogging he wants attention. Oh well, got to go now.
