WTF Wednesday

Re: WTF Wednesday

  • WTF lady from the gas company. I call because my bill shows that we have used NO gas since we moved into our house in July. You tell me all about how the meter needs to be changed and that my bill will go up etc but fail to tell me that you will be sending me an estimated gas usage bill for the past 5 months. I understand that we did use the gas and I have no problem with paying for it but why do you not tell people about it unless that specifically ask?

    And I'm sorry but don't you do any monitoring of gas usage? You told me that there has been NO gas usage for almost a year!!! How does nothing gat flagged that maybe there is a problem?

    Oh and you failed to tell me at the beginning of the conversation that someone needed to be home to change the meter. Hey thanks...luckily DH was home yesterday and they could get there to change it out.

    End vent...

  • WTF my workplace...this building is so old and the weather has been so cold and windy lately that the window in the group therapy room spontaneously cracked in half yesterday. Maintenance didn't even get new glass in, they just boarded it up! How are people supposed to use that room when it's freezing in there?

    We use lots of space heaters... not because of a broken window, but an AC unit that refuses to shut off.  Yes, we have a heater and AC on right now.  $30 space heater from walmart makes our conference room bareable.

    Just all around WTF.  I've been off prednisone now for a little over a month.  Since I've been off of it I'm packing on weight like nobodies business (which sucks because I was down to 119 at Halloween!)  I've been nonstop on and off sick, I have full days that I can't get out of bed from depression and my stomach is a mess everyday.  I either can't eat at all or I'm starving, I'm either super happy or crying over nothing.  It really sucks. 

    My doctor told me that people tend to gain weight, but no one knows why...  REALLY?!  It took me 10 seconds on mayo clinic's website to learn that prednisone makes you stop producing natural cortisol and if taken off pred too soon your body won't regulate correctly.  That causes all of the above symptoms..  Thanks for the warning!  I thought I was spiralling into full blown psychosis!  He is getting an earfull next Wednesday at my appointment! 

    Also I have my labs today to make sure my immune system is still leaving my kidneys alone.  Wish me luck I'm really nervous about it.  I missed last months tests because I had a "couldn't get out of bed" day.

  • WTF, cycle!!  With the stress of Christmas, going to MIL's  8-| & our drive back, I am on cycle day 24 and STILL haven't ovulated.  I feel it coming on (ewcm and cramping) but it's going to throw off the nice, normalish, closer-to-30-day cycles I've been enjoying the past few months.  Harrumph!

  • Wtf boss?! Last night at 4 pm you make me start plotting color plots....3 plans. Luckily I sent out 2, but the first set, 16 sheets took 2.5 hrs to plot. I'm glad you don't think I have a life for which I would like to leave on time. Then I find out my street design that you have moved between 3 plans several times needs to be moved again. This all takes time!!! I'm so sick of it!

  • WTF director, telling my dept you scheduled a parent night next tues at 6pm today and it would be in our best interest to attend doesn't help when I have a baby! H works late and it would take me longer to drive to town, drop her at my moms, and then drive to work then it would for your stupid 30 min meeting that you could address in a mailing!!!

  • WTF sister! Why is your ability to make good decisions rapidly declining? I was not aware that the checkout line at the grocery store was the perfect place to announce your pregnancy to your family member.

  • @frank139@msu.edu glad I could make someone smile! It was true though. My sister works at the local grocer chain. I had ran into her while I was out shopping and she had just finished her shift. She wound up in line behind me and just blurted out that she was pregnant again like it was no big deal or anything. I'm more so annoyed that DH and I actually want kids and are trying to be smart about not having them right now and she keeps getting everything.

    I've got a bottle of Pinot Noir that is calling my name!  Kids are going to bed early and I'm plopping my happy ass on the couch for the night.

    I'm debating wine or margarita!!!

  • 2-3 glasses of wine is equivalent to 1 margarita if you're counting calories. I vote for wine!
