I do not know whether to be upset or laugh. :confused3

My job is testing, graduation and some tech work at a large high school. In testing I am responsible for helping build a database that has every student that is enrolled testing information. This tells us who has failed and who has passed. We have to retest every student who has failed a graduation required test until they pass the test. All we do is compile the information which is in a computer program that the registrar keeps up to date. The registrar orders all the records and she is responsible to enter these records in the computer. She started last March. She has not added one new student's test scores all year. We have been working on this database all week and we are only on the H's!! If she would have entered the information when it came in, which was when the student enrolled and she requested records it would have been done by now. BUT has she done it?? NO!! So I have been giving her the names of the students we do not have any information on in the computer. Because she said she needed to find all these students. I told her I could give her the names. I would email them to her. She said great. The little WITCH!! I have been giving her a list to help her out. I mean this way she does not have to look up the information herself. I have the d&*# list already. As I work the list I email names to her. She asked for the list! I was just called by my boss and told not to email her any more. That she would email her for now on. She had went to her boss (the jerk I had the run in with at the beginning of the school year) and he went to an AP (assistnat Principal) and complained about me sending her emails. Dang it. I send her crap because she asks, to help her have the information, which she had as each student enrolled. But she did not do it. So the AP wanted to know why I was giving her my work. It is her work not mine!!!! All I was doing was letting her know the ones she did not do when they enrolled. Which is over 150 names!! It is not my fault she did not do her work properly. Boy...it has back fired on the two of them. Once it was explained by my boss to the AP that it is the regristrar who requests and entered the student's information the AP was not happy at the fact the registrar has not been doing her job. But I am still pissed!!!

My daughter talking to JrsyBoy about bars and I don't :confused3 know any of them. Now you know who the alcoholic is in the family. :rotfl:
That's the one who stays home and drinks alone rather than going to the bars, right? ;)
 
Selena - ya I would have been a little more than ticked off. I hate it when people don't do their jobs, then it requires you to work more because of them and then they try to blame everything on you.

We have the same thing going on at my work right now. Due dates are coming up for reports that need to be sent up not just to the Bureau head, but the Department head and our Secretary hasn't input anything into the database yet. We have all this RNO data just sitting at her desk which she is supose to do it as we close out our vacancies. We have 200 vacancies with a minimum of 200 applicants that applied to each with 2 weeks to finish putting it in. Now all of us have to stop what we are doing and put this stuff in. What is with people who won't do their jobs because they feel they are more important and don't want to "lower graded work." JUST DO IT!!!

I'm sorry, Selena....try and brush it off. Atleast the AP realizes it's not your job and you shouldn't be doing it.

Sheez, I always try not to keep myself open and dang if it didn't backfire this time.

:grouphug: Hugs to you Selena. Wow, I always hated it when I worked and stayed on top of my job. Then I had to help everyone else out and eventually their work became mine. I sure can sympathize with you. At least she got her just reward!
 
My boss gave us an hour early off. Have a great weekend everyone. :wave2:
 
Almost 5 . . . . time for the traditional 151 & nog like yesterday!!! Tis the season!!!
Sandy...!!!!! YOU MUST get out more often!!!!! :rotfl2: :rotfl2: You guys crack me up!!!!
Selena ~ :love2: keep your chin up and always remember what goes around comes around.
JRSY BOY!!!! I want to party with you!!!!! :banana: :banana: I LIKE that reasning of avoiuding hangovers by staying drunk!!!! Thats what I did with my sister when we went on our Carnival cruise 2 years ago.... it was a blast!! :rotfl2: :rotfl2:
Marcie ~ My cruise is the end of Feb and I have all my stuff in one section of the closetr. The only thing holding me back from packing it that my family will probably have me commited!!! :rotfl2:
LULU!! Where are you?? Hope all is well.
Heidi ~ I am like you with the bathing suits... although now..most of them are falling off me!! :rotfl: :rotfl: Now THAT would get me thrown off the boat!!! At least this body would make a tiny splash now!!!! :rotfl2: C U Guys!
 
Is this bad day at work day!!! I'm having a bad day too. Partially because I admit, I rather be finishing getting ready for my trip. Less then an hour though and I can leave.

When I went to the doctor a month ago for my check-up I had lost 17 pounds from the year before. The doctor was praising me. I am at my ideal weight now, although I complain about 5 pounds :rotfl2: Anyway, I can't wait to wear my bathing suit.

Maybe I will pack more tonight. When I was packing last night my DD wanted to tell me I was silly and I told her no Aerial now it IS time to pack. She got excited haha. :rotfl:
 
I just think my boss is entirely too nice. She called me and told me all about what had happened on her way to get her flu shot. She was hopping made.
She comes back with a packet of testing from Central Office that was not downloaded for some reason to this wonderful new computer program. Now it is only 6 scores. I do not mind doing it. Matter of a fact I thought she would want me to add them. Then she said she was going to go ask the registrar if it she wanted to do them or if she wanted us to do them. Now when she uses the word us that means ME. I am thinking why give her the option. I followed her in to the records room and listened to the conversaion and I was spitting fire coming out. I literally had to walk out of the office to keep my cool. Boss says do you want us to do these or do you want to do them? Registrar replies I am so busy I want you to do them. I was upset by the way it was asked. I mean who is the boss?? Why give her the option of telling us what to do. If I do this year I will have to do it forever. While she sets back there playing online all freakin day long. I get to do her work and my work and my bosses work. Geez when does it quit??

You all need to pray that Jeff gets a promotion and I can quit. I would be a happy camper if I could tell them all where to stick it!!

OK. I hope that made me feel better.

I just got home from a little shopping. I went to B. Moss and bought 2 shirts and a sweather. My favorite shirt had a hole in it and the sweather looked bad on me. I am way to small in my shoulders to wear the drop style turtle necks. So I had to go back and do a return. I got a tee shirt, a sweather and another top and a $4 credit on my card. I was hoping another top like the one I returned would come in and the sales lady said the pink stuff was to come in next. I love pink. Most of my wardrobe is black, tans, navy and reds. I am trying to expland to a few colors instead of being so neutral. I bought a purple sweather with a shirt shirt under it, and a dark burgandy tee shirt and a teal and brown shirt. I think I have got a little color now. :cool1:

Then I called Jeff and they meet me at Starbucks. I had a Decafe, tall 2% Gingerbread latte. Yummy in my tummy. I figured after the crappy day I had I deserved a $4 coffee!! :rotfl2:

Now I think I am going to drink a glass of water and pour me a glass of wine and head in to the livingroom to watch CSI with my son. See you guys later..........
 
Selena ~ I am hoping you are feeling better. It is good that you can vent to us. :grouphug: We are here ifyour tomorrow goes crappy. Well... I am here for a short while. I will leave to go to work tomorrow around 4 and if they approved my Sunday off (hope, because I am packed) after I get home around 12:30, DH and I will drive over to Cape Canaveral. (Will be thinking of when you go soon Marcie!!!) We will get to bed around 3 but then when we wake up, we will be there... I will drive as by the time I get home at night, it takes a while for me to unwind.... hence the reason Sandy Baby, I was up til 2 the other morning.... that was a little too late for me.
We will go on the Sterling Casino Ship, maybe do some last minute shopping, I will drop my personals off at Shirley's for my baskets, if she can store them til Feb, if not, I will at least get to see her and tidy up my order. And we will see if any Mickey Ships are in port... Shirley will know that one too. Oh, Sandy... while I have your attention... how many people on the list for Christmas cards???
Then we will come home Sunday evening. Quick but easy.
OK, I am going to watch my CSI that I taped (tevo'd) Buy guys! Karen :grouphug:
 
Wow Karen!!! Tell Shirley I said hi. :banana: I hope you have a wonderful weekend in Cape Canavral.

Hope everyone has a happy Friday!

I will be packing all weekend. I started tackling my DD's clothes last night.

Aerial asked me last night if she was really going to get to see Mickey Mouse. ::MickeyMo ::MickeyMo
 
Howdy all.

Karen, there are a total of 6 of us on the Christmas exchange. Marcie, Lulu, Selena, Heidi, you and me. Not fair that you are going to Cape Canaveral. Oh how I would like to get away even for a glimpse. Went to the cemetary today to meet my step father. It is a Nat'l Cemetary so the roads in, around and out were packed full of people for Veterans Day. Didn't even think about it being a Holiday.

Meeting Heidi and our friend that you guys sent cards to for his birthday. Today IS his birthday. We will see if he brings up the cards.

Hubby just said it was time to go. Bye
 
Hey everybody!!! I am having a much better day at work today. I've pretty much gotten everything done at the moment so it looks like I won't have anything hanging when I leave for vacation.

The insurance adjuster came to our house today and we are getting set up to get our new roof and new garage doors and a few other things. But, the better news is, we got an expense check for the expenses we made while we were evacuated those 3 weeks!!!! Now our vacation won't be as tight for us!!! :cool1: :cool1:
 
Marcie what day are you leaving. I forgot about the mail not running today and could not send you a check. I do not want you to have to buy those charms with your own money. I want you to have my money.

Today was much better since I was off... :rotfl2

I have a nice pot of spaghetti on and a nice bottle of wine ready to have with dinner.

Jeff's wallet came today. Everything minus a little money was in the wallet. :Pinkbounc

Sandy I forgot to pm you some ideas on my tree ornaments. So look for an PM from me. I guess you need to forward this on to Heidi.

I went shopping today. Made the mistake of going to Kohl's. I bought 3 Christmas ornaments. YES, I bought the one for my funky monkey, plus my kids bought their yearly ornament.

:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: Jeff is behind me reading everything I write and he just read the above statement about the one for my funky monkey and he was like....wait a minute...and he came running over here and was full of questions. you know if anyone starts reading this thread and see the funky minkey they might wonder what we have going on here.... :rotfl2:
 
Selena, I leave next Friday morning. I'm sure if you mail it tomorrow it will get here on time.

We went out to eat italian food tonight. Yummm and then we went to the mall where my DH bought him and I some nice sunglasses :smooth: and he said that was my anniversary present. He knows i wouldn't buy myself anything that nice. So, I was happy. :cool1: :cool1: I also bought myself another pair of jeans for WDW. I've been watching the weather and it looks like 60% chance of rain the first day we are in the parks. :umbrella: Everyday before that is clear. It's still early for weather though, maybe the weather man is wrong.

Okay I am off to pack more stuff.

Talk to you Monkeys later :banana: :banana:
 
I finally sent you a pm with ornament ideas....but I promise any I would receive will be special to me always!!

Marcie I am going to try to send you a pm tomorrow to tell you what I would like for you to get for Mac. I will get a check out in the mail tomorrow. I had planned to send you a SASE but I forgot my large envelope at work. I will just send you some extra money to handle postage. I did this last year for a friend on another Disney board. I mailed her 3 charms and she had no trouble receiving them.

Night funky monkeys Jeff told me it was time for bed....
 
Hi everyone,

Looks like everyone is doing pretty good. We have been kept very busy with our friend in the hospital. More bad news about her seems to come everyday. Today was a spot on the lungs and she is stage 4 kidney failure. Stage 5 is dyalisis. It just keeps pouring on her.

Having Ted's (dh) brother over for dinner tonight. They are here from Utah for our nieces wedding tomorrow. They have 3 adopted kids from China and Thailand. They are about the same age and man o man are they ever a handful. I don't look forward to this at all. And that is coming from someone who loves kids.

I need some of that special juice before they come!! :rotfl2:
 
Hi, funky monkeys!
I'm finally over my sickness! I went away for the weekend so I wasn't around. I managed to get a little grading done, but I still have a lot to do tonight. Grades are due this week and it takes quite some time to do the math, so all the quizzes and papers and stuff that I need to average in all have to be graded by tomorrow, pretty much.
Sandy, I"m sorry to hear about your friend. It seems like it is pouring right now :( Hopefully it starts sunshining soon! :sunny:
BF and I are talking about another Disney trip in August! I'm so excited.
I have about 7 weeks left!
OMG- My neighbors put up their Christmas decorations yesterday- wreaths, lights, pine garland, etc. They are always the first, but this is definitely early!
I am going shopping this upcoming weekend, so let me know any rules for the ornaments! :) Love ya!
 
Hi Lulu, good to hear from you. Glad you are feeling better. There really aren't any rules. We thought a price limit of 10-15 dollars and be mailed before Dec 4th so that we could all enjoy the ornaments on our trees. I believe the consensus is that we will all try to open them on Dec 4th. We will just miss you at WDW. We are going in Sept.
 
OMG my trip is so close now. I am pretty close to finish packing. The only thing left is clothes I will have to wash again and my camera and make up and stuff. I did run back to the store twice over the weekend for things I still needed, mostly for Aerial.

Last night I was walking through my house and i hit my toe on the wall. This is the same toe I broke right before my Dad got sick. I had ignored it then because of being so busy and it healed kinda crooked. My DH was like...you know we have to walk on this trip right. LOL. :rotfl2: It's not as bad though as when I broke it, it's just kinda blue. Leave it to me to do something silly like that.

Sandy, I am sorry about your friend. Sounds like she is having such a rough time. :worried:

Heidi, did you enjoy your long weekend??? :goodvibes

Karen, how was Cape Canavral? Was it warm? :cool1:

Lulu I am sooo glad you are feeling better. :wave:

Selena, did you enjoy your long weekend too???? :flower:

I've been watching the weather in Orlando and it looks like it will be highs around 70 and lows around 52 the whole week. Here in Texas we are supposed to have a cold front this week and lows in the 40s. :cold: (It's 73 right now already at 7:30 am) So, maybe I will get to leave and not deal with the cold front and enjoy Orlando weather.

Well this is my major countdown week. 4 days of work and I am outta here :hourglass I do have one project at least left to complete. I am going to get that done ASAP so I don't have to worry.

Have a great Monday Funky Monkeys :banana: :banana:
