I have a dream.

I have a dream that one day we will all be free of having to avoid human feces every five steps while walking to work. I hate this place.

Um, did I mention that this place sucks? First of all, yesterday was Coop's birthday. We generally get cakes for people when it's their day. When it was MY day, Coop even went and bought the (gluten-free) cake and had the company reimburse her. So yesterday, first thing, I went downstairs and asked The Boss, The Bitch, and HR guy if there would be cake for Coop. They all told me that yes, they were getting cake. And then made fun of me because they said I made it sound like I was scheduling my food intake to accommodate cake later in the day. Anyway...So I leave at 3 to hit up my other job and there still hadn't been cake, so i assumed they did it later. Why did they not get her a cake? What the fuck? Total assholes. So my other co-worker said today that he was going to buy a cake and I'm like, "It's a little late, no?" And when she came in this morning she said her birthday totally sucked, so i feel bad. Especially after she went through the trouble of going and buying me a special cake. Now I look like an asshole.

Also, the project I have been killing myself over for the last week and a half...I finished it yesterday, it was sent off for approval to somewhere far away, and apparently they hated it. So the Big Boss came in yesterday right before I left and said, "Go ahead and put that project on hold because we're canceling the contract." I was like, "Um, I already finished it, and you approved it, so how am I going to put it on hold?" So that was yet ANOTHER waste of a week. And of course now, if that project is canceled, I have to "whip something up" in two days to replace that project. And it's tough to whip something up from a bunch of discs sent from overseas that are CORRUPT. Everyone is an asshole.

Also, since this IS Mercury in retrograde....yesterday right before I left, I started uploading all this shit from our server. Coop was working on this HUGE project that she can't save every couple of minutes because it takes about 30 minutes to save. So we were in the middle of all this stuff and the DVD tech guy had a problem up in his office. So why did he, without saying anything to anyone, go downstairs and RESTART all the servers? Which means that everything we had been working on in the afternoon just disappeared. I thought Coop's head was going to explode. What a dick, dude. Who does that? Every time someone in the art department needs to do that, we go to everyone's desk and say, "I have to reboot the servers, could you make sure you're off of them in the next two minutes?" Common courtesy, I think. But no.

Assholes!
