Oh What A Day

I got a comment, I got a comment!

I like getting comments. Thanks bearash. Oh, and nice name by the way. All you other readers out there, get to commenting!

Work tonight just absolutely _ _ _ _! We had a big screw up in which the guy responsible for doing a certain thing 'forgot' to do it and it has ended up having a pretty big customer impact, and of course, me being the manager, I have to deal with the repercussions and try to explain to them why we 'forgot.' It's amazing, really.

Also, another funny at work today, and I have hundreds of these. I was actually approached tonight and asked by one of my associates if they could take a leave of absence. Upon inquiring why, I found it was for personal reasons. To be more specific, the associate is trying to have a child. I don't have any problems with that whatsoever - so I asked how long she needed. She said three months. A bit long I thought, until she told me she needed that long in order to find a father. In her words exactly, she needed a baby daddy. A great employee, and a noble reason to want personal time, but it kind of caught me off guard, and when you work at a job like I do, that doesn't happen very often; when it does, it's worth blogging about.

I basically am sitting here posting after such a hellacious night because I need to relax before trying to sleep, and I enjoy blogging. I want to be playing my banjo right now, but I don't think I have the energy and I know I don't have the capacity to concentrate on Foggy Mountain Breakdown.

One last thing....The Braves took first place tonight with a big win over the Nationals - the We-Used-To-Be-In-First-team.

Go Braves!
