I cannot tell you how miserable it is to have to work a job that you've mentally checked out of already. All these issues seem petty and I just want to leave it for someone else. Like for instance, today a Care rep said she needed my customer to fax her some state paperwork concerning an acquisition, so rather than bother the customer, I looked up the info on the California Secretary of State site and pasted the link to that info into an e-mail and sent it to her. She e-mailed me back saying that it was the exact info she needed but that she couldn't accept it as a link. She needed me to print off the info and fax it to her. Think about that, I had to print it off and fax it to her. Who faxes anymore? If she needed it FAXED couldn't she print it off herself and fax it to herself? Or wouldn't it be easier to print it off and have that nice clean copy that's ever so easy to read to put into that file that no one's ever going to look at? Jesus. The things I put up with here (but not for long---yea!).
Today on my way to work I made a point of checking out the prices at the 4 gas stations on my route, since the ol' tank is getting a little low. The rock-bottom-bargain-price was $3.41 a gallon, the highest was $3.49. I need to buy some quick before the price tops three-bucks-fifty. Know what's causing the price to rise? Refineries are producing at 90% capacity, and there's not a shortage of oil, just lazy ass employees I guess. So the only explanation they aren't producing more in spite of no diminished supply ---except for the obvious reason, gouging--- is laziness so evidentially refineries are staffed by ex-Hugs and Kisses employees. It's the only reasonable explanation I can come up with.
And here's a little exercise for you from a conspiracy theory about 9/11. I'll spare you all the theory part and just jump to the end because it's just kinda interesting.
Open Microsoft Word and type in Q33NY, which was the flight number of the first plane to hit the Twin Towers. Highlight and change the font size to 48 and the typestyle to "windings". Freaky. Looks like some geek at Microsoft was working overtime with the pranks to me.

Come down here to tank up, it's $0.50 cheaper.
Wait a minute here. Did you ever mentally check IN to that job in the first place? ;)
Yes, E I did, several times. It just couldn't hold my interest.
