Best Friend loves “Sons of Anarchy” and it got me thinking this morning. I’m dangerously starting to show Signs of Anarchy. How so?
More and more….I just don’t care. YES, I would love the new job at that place and am praying, literally praying and Main Squeeze did a vision board that I get the job. The decision date by said firm is 9/20. Isn’t it dangerous to start acting so wildly like I don’t care about this butt crust of a place anymore? I’ve had to stifle my pat response now a couple of times…the words dance around my tongue and come dangerously close to escaping my lips more and more. It may happen…Rough N Tough has been pushing my buttons. She is rude, crude and just itching for a bar brawl. Next time she approaches me with a request or a negative comment, I so want to say, “You know what RnT? I really don’t give a shit anymore. Why don’t you go eff yourself?” God, that made me feel so good just to write it! For some reason she has stopped talking to me, a blessing in itself, but it also makes me wonder, “What the fu** did I do?” Want to know the only person in this office lately that has even noted my mere existence? Useless Coworker! Folks, I have to change my allegiance regarding UC…she’s listened, been learning new things and actually seems to care about me. When Main Squeeze’s aunt passed away, she was the only one that asked me how we were…who EVER asks me how I am. Hell, she hasn’t even been useless in about 6 weeks. I have to give the girl credit. Rough N Tough is now tops on my “you suck” list.
Other signs of trouble? I don’t even care what I wear to work anymore. I used to like dressing all fancy and lawyerish…but, now as long as my body is covered with some form of fabric, I could give a crap. Maybe I’ll wear the same pants all week and just change my shirt. If it’s clean…it works. Am I turning into a straight guy?
Bad Bosses ask me to do things and I blatantly lie through my teeth. “Oh, that pocket part update? You haven’t gotten it yet?! Really?! Well, I ordered it!” Folks, I didn’t order any damn publications! I don’t care!!! I guess I’ll have to order it today, but should have 6 weeks ago. I’ve been having far more fun readjusting Rough N Tough’s printer each day after she leaves. Did any of you see “Serial Mom”? That is who I am becoming. On my way to work, all I could think is..what can I do today to torture another person in my office? My karma is taking a beating! Oh well, I’ll work on karma in my next job. Being a decent human being only hurts me here.
What Was That?!
24 SepOk, I have not been a good blogger the last couple weeks. I’m in total limbo…waiting, watching, hoping for the new job. Good news is that they called me and want me to come back a third time to have lunch with the two main partners. I hope it is a good sign and I’m starting to envision my plan.
It took everything I had in me to NOT shout, “That’s the last god damn thing I needed to hear around here – although it is quite a fitting commentary on our business model and your law practice.” I didn’t though…I need this job til next week.
I hope this horridness never happens to you. If so, be strong my friends. Not everyone could do this job. Remember, it’s nearly the weekend. I pray I can forget that repulsive sound by tomorrow….
