don't get me wrong. i like my job. I do. But... sometimes, i lose my faith in humanity. not seriously. but... god, some calls i get, people are just... not bright. and its the simplest of solutions, and yes, it's faster calling one of us, but still. STILL. hearing the same stupid questions all morning long is not fun. Especially when you've been at work since 615am. Ok, so the calls didn't start until 730, but still. AND. AND. i've been asked to stay til 5pm, just so someone experienced can handle the bid deposits. Ambee and I got here around the same time, but, still. It's unfair to both of us. The newbies haven't been trained because we COULDN'T train them. We had nothing to train them WITH. and it would be unfair to leave them alone after a few hours of training. and its not like i COULDN'T use the money, but... its pretty much an 11-hr day. I shouldn't whine, but i totally am. Sarah worked a 14hr day last week, or something. maybe even a couple of times.
i think i'm just being cranky right now. i went to bed early, but i didn't have a very good sleep. And i woke up in the middle of the night and was desperately thirsty, then had a hard time going back to sleep. THEN i woke up late because i'm stupid and don't know how to properly set my alarm.
but now i've had lunch, and feeling a bit better. My work mom told me that it was illegal to wear a batman outfit in Australia. Is that true? I got a bit hysterical at that, but that was before lunch, and i needed the laugh.
So now that i've eaten, had a few good laughs, and gottten some sugar in my system, i'm feeling better. I just needed to rant to get it OUT of my system. And some of the calls i was getting were just so stupid.
(although, i have to say, some of the calls i had, those guys had nice voices, and cheered me up a bit. hee. i'm a voice-whore).
BUT now i must get back to work, and reply to my Epic Email to
