Do you wanna know what is REALLY annoying?
I had to come in on a Sunday and do work.

Do you wanna know what is even MORE annoying?

My co-worker/person in charge of me who I'm working with DOESN'T SHOW UP!!!!

I've been waiting for 2 hours and she hasn't even called. ARGH!

3. Damn that sucks.
I hate when people do that. On my last retail gig, which was selling computers at a major department store chain, my very first day of work, the guy who was supposed to be working the shift with me decided not to come in that day. Didn't call or anything, and I was a trainee...which meant I didn't have an employee code (so I couldn't work the register). Did I mention this was one of the busiest shopping days of the year?

Luckily this really sweet guy from the audio department came over and saved my bacon. But talk about baptism by fire...

5. It can always be worse
Just think of that when you're frustrated. :)

Man people are really tools sometimes.

We were supposed to meet between 12 and 1. I've been here since 12. When is it appropriate for me to get the hell outta here?
