So Annoyed- UPDATED

Today is the first day of quarter-end close (aka crazy time at work).  Last night I busted my @ss to get all of my work accomplished so I could go boating with some neighbors on the lake.  I had a few last things to clean-up and ended up working until 11 last night.  This morning I get into work super early since I need to process a file by 11.  This task usually takes 3 to 4 hours.  Well guess what?!?!?  The file hasn't arrived yet!  So I got up for nothing and have been twiddling my thumbs for the past 2 hours- ugh!  Now it looks like my already long day is going to be even worse!  I better get out of here before 8 tonight.

Add to all of this Rudy (my dog) is sick and is on a medicine that makes him drink a ton of water.  As a result he needs to go out quite often.  I was hoping I'd be able to run home at lunch to let him out.  Doesn't look like that is going to happen now.  I feel so bad for him- sick and with a full bladder.  Maybe I can get a neighbor to stop by and give him a potty break. 

UPDATE:  So even though we got the file 3 hours late, I rocked it and finished it 45 min before my deadline! Cool  This also meant I could skip home to let our Rudy.  Glad I made it because he desperately needed to go out!

  • And while I'm venting, today is only my Wednesday.  We have to work on Saturday and are required to come into the office.  I'm still unclear why working from home wouldn't work.  And to make it worse, Saturday is my 5 year anny!
  • Ugh.  Looks like it's been a rough few days for you.  Sorry about Ruby, but yes, if you think a neighbor would be willing to do it, I'd ask one of them to let her out.  I know I always get kinda cranky when I have a full bladder and there's no place to relieve it.  :)

    Sorry about having to work on Saturday too.  That's pretty Stinky!!  Bleh.

  • That stinks!  Long hours, your sick dog, plus working on Saturday.  Yuck!  I hope they will make it up to you. 

    Hopefully you will be able to enjoy the rest of your weekend.  Do you at least get Monday off?

  • Monday we have to work, but can work from home!  So I'm seeing that as a win since I can be home with the puppy in my PJ's.
  • Boo, what a crappy weekend, sounds like you will have earned that Oak island vacay!

    I'm so glad we booked that vacation because now I don't feel like work is ruining our anniversary.  And I found out last night my newly divorced brother (remember the wife that left him via text on Xmas eve) is going to join us.  This will be over his wedding anniversary, so I'm glad he'll have something to distract him.

  • You're a good sister for letting your brother join you on your vacay, I bet he'll appreciate the company to take his mind off things. Glad the late file didn't put too much of a crimp on your day!

    That is definitely better than having to be in the office!
