When students come over to the desk to tell you that the stapler is empty at the reference desk, and your dumbass coworker just sits there. Um...go fill it, you lazy sack of you-know-what!

Ha ha! Yeah, quite possibly. But at least I got up and filled it.
So, I can't pay a bill online but I can call and pay but charge a fee?
Nope, I found a payment center to pay it in person!
Now, I am filing a compliant against the company for locking me out.
Won't let me log in and won't send me new passwords for the account but charging extra for paying on the phone?
I can't even verify that the bill was paid by going online if I mail the bill!
What a scam for A T and T! Nope the bill was not late or overdue!
People who call the library and insist they have been in here using our computers before, so they can't understand what's going on when I say they are for faculty, staff and students only. "But the manager lets me use them whenever there's a free one." "What manager?" "That heavy-set girl."
Well, we do have someone who could be described that way, but she's not the manager and I seriously doubt she would let a total stranger use the computers. We don't even let alumni use them.
She keeps insisting though. "NO, not the public library. I know I've been in there, but not for like two years."
Sigh...
My rant today--people who lie about what size they wear. I don't really care about such things, but when someone does say what they wear, and I'm looking at them and see she is much larger than I, and she is saying she wears a size 2 or 3 sizes down from me--who the hell is she trying to kid and how dumb does she think I am?
And no, she is not shopping at a store with vanity sizing.
My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!
Or how about people (MIL) who insist on buying the wrong size. I've said "I generally buy XL in in shirts and sweaters because of my bust line" for 27 years (I can take in the sides)! She insists on buying M and then asks why I never wear!

It's the last week of classes, and next week is exam week. A couple of our student workers quit mid-semester. He has new people starting tomorrow and next week. That's just grand. All the books are due back Dec. 12 (because it is the official end of the semester) so not only will I be swamped with book returns, the poor kid will be completely overwhelmed with the insanity that is the end of the semester.
We have to watch them like hawks when they're new. Heck, we have to watch them like hawks sometimes when they've been here three years. This morning, I caught one of our "old" students trying to check out books to someone without an ID card.
To put the icing on the cake, these kids will not remember anything they learned on the job when they return in mid-January.
Here I thought, all I have to do is get through this week and next. Thanks for the early Christmas gift, Boss.
my mother has been doing really bad for two weeks and she's confused now sometimes yet refuses to let me (a former nurse for 23 yrs) help her call the doctors. She waits til she is really, really bad and then tries to call. SHe's probably going to end up in the hospital this time because she let it go so long. Ugh!
