On the bus today, I met the queen of L.A.




Vile, vile, work hating evil rant.

Sometimes Some Things in Some Parts of Life – suck.

Sometimes it is too hot. Sometimes there is a lot of traffic. Sometimes the a/c is on too high (or too low.) Sometimes you get stuck on jury duty. And sometimes it is on a day that is hot, humid, and the courthouse a/c isn’t working properly.

And, yes – I do understand that this sucks.

But sometimes the proverbial Shit Doth Happen. It happens to us all. So, Mr. Bossman. Deal. Just like the rest of us have to.

Good Freaking Lord what is it that makes some people think that the world revolves around them?! That it is fine for it to be too hot and too humid and too whatever for Everyone Else to attend jury duty but when it is Your turn those conditions are simply unacceptable.

I’ll never understand it.

I’d love to say, “suck it fucking up and deal, because that is just part of life.”

But I’m not independently wealthy.

It’s like the day his newspaper was found in the lunch room and his response was, “I don’t fucking understand what is wrong with people that they do something like this!!!”

Um. What is “wrong with people” is that they’re human. And they make mistakes. And so do you – although you always try to blame it on someone else. And it’s just a bloomin’ newspaper – not your grandchild.

Gee. Can ya’ tell that I’m a little sick of the Asshole Show I’ve got a first row ticket to – everydamnday.

It also makes me wonder if he knows just how much I despise him, because he seems to think everyone respects him as Such a Wonderful Caring and Important Part of The Community. But they don’t. People make pretty rude remarks about him, to me, and they *know* I work for him.

The level of self-delusion he possesses is quite astounding. Really and truly. I’m starting to daydream about the day I quit. But I know that if I told him all that I thought of him, he’d turn around and blame it all on me – because that is exactly what his excuse has been with all his other secretaries that “they just didn’t get it.” Frankly, I think they “got it” a lot more than I do because no one has ever lasted this long.

Anyways. Yes. Yes. You could certainly say I hate my job today. But that is why I bitch about it here – so I have a paycheck to do the fun stuff out there.

So Last Season - Circa Now
