While we’re on the subject, I’m trying to finish The X-Files, but I’m struggling with it. It just isn’t the same without….um, a certain character. I won’t spoil it for anyone who hasn’t seen it yet, but it isn’t as good.
Oh, and I dropped Britbox again, at least for a while. I am going to miss Father Brown and Sister Boniface, but can’t see paying $9 per month just for those two shows.
Even so, I'm glad for a bit of good news, even if it's something small like that. It's been a very frustrating week at work, and it's only Wednesday. I mean, it's the same old same old. Every single order I've gotten today has had something wrong with it. Every single order I've gotten this week has had something wrong with it.
The frustrating part is that we can't get the support from upper management we need to be successful at our jobs. Junior, for example, is nothing but an overgrown teenager who is more concerned with playing pranks on his employees than he is in solving the problems we have to deal with. It's almost like they want us to fail.
I didn't come here to complain -- again -- about my job, but I've been thinking lately. I used to be able to write clever and entertaining posts about my work days. No matter how bad things seemed, I was always able to find humor in the situation, and could come up with something people would want to read. Not so any more.
Things have gotten so bad out there, there is no humor to be found anywhere. It's become a downright depressing place, and no matter how hard I try, I just can't come up with anything worth writing about. And I can remember when readers were actually encouraging me to write a book.
Nobody says that any more. Nobody thinks that any more.
I think I'm going to end this and go take a nice, hot shower. But before I go, I had been saying I was going to switch my shopping day to Wednesday, but I'm finding that just isn't working out. Reason being, is that the shelves are fairly empty, and I can't get what I need.
I'm probably going to go back to shopping on Fridays, despite the place being a madhouse. At least the shelves are stocked then. But I did pick up a skein of that pink Bitty Stripes yarn.
I guess I really ought to finish the BSJ I've already go on the needles, then, huh?
