The Small Print

We’ve decided that the Seattle, Denver, and Portland territories comprise too much business for one person to handle, so we’re going to be doing some shifting in the next month or two.

Great.

We want Susan to have one go-to person, so you’ll be handling Denver and Portland exclusively.

Uh…

When Sandy makes the transition to California, she will be taking the Seattle territory with her.

Uh…

So this should really alleviate your workload, right? This is a good move, don’t you think?

Yeah, well, that sounds great. Wondering, though, if the plan was to put Seattle with Cali, and give Denver and Portland to me, why the hell did you move me here catfucker?

Yes, well, that wasn’t very well thought out, was it?

No. No it wasn’t.

Now don’t get me wrong, when they offered me the job I didn’t care much where it was. Denver, Seattle, Portland; all fine by me. And in no way is this a statement of discontent as, let’s face it really, the cracks in the sidewalk are the same no matter where you travel and I’m beginning to understand that it’s just a matter of knowing where to step. (Unless you’re in Fife. Things are way different in Fife. True story.) Rather, I’m just amazed at the logic behind this whole endeavor. As the powers that be had this planned from the beginning, though, it actually does make perfect sense that they went about it in the typical cart before the horse, backwards ass fashion that they did. Three cheers for Corporate Confuction!

…and I didn’t actually call my boss a catfucker. This was added for your pleasure. Well, it made me giggle anyway.

I have the Trinity Sessions – Cowboy Junkies stuck on a loop in my head and I’m not positive that it’s entirely healthy.

I finally made a doctor’s appointment for tomorrow (sweet lord, no!) It’s been put off far too long and I’m glad to be getting it taken care of, but I’m not looking forward to the process of explaining my long history of physical retardation yet again. Yes, I know I’m broken. Thank you for your lovely insight and candor. Now bugger off.

I thought about doing laundry today, and at least that’s a step in the right direction.

With an adequate amount of caffeine, booze, knitting, and Netflix, I am convinced that almost anything is possible.
