Not Your Average Jane

Dear God,
Please send me a new job so I can tell Dora to take this one and shove it...
Thank you.

Hehehe... Think God reads blogs? :) If so HALLALUJAH!!! :)
No seriously I know I complain and bitch about this job and no one really understands how bad it is... Sean's met Dora, at least he has an inkling of whats up... But today... Today took the cake. I get there and go up to take my lunch to the break room and she calls for the morning meeting...
So I go back down and its me and all the other mens associates... So shes talking and she like askes me how I am and I'm just like I'm tired... (ask me a question, I'll give you an honest answer...) And shes like were you out late drinking? I'm like WTF?!?!? I'm tired therefore I must have been drinking? How do those connect? If I'd been drinking I'd be hungover... I was just tired... Too many late nights and too many days of working... I told her I just didnt get enough sleep last night and she makes some comparison to herself... And then she goes into how maybe I shouldnt be working openings just closes... Finally I was just like Dora, I'm here on time and ready to work, thats all you should be concerned with. She shut up and laid off me. But for her to pull that shit in front of my coworkers? Sorry, bitch that shit wont fly... Someone pointed out to me later she was tryin to intimadate me... I told her I fear only 2 people in this world. My mother and God. Dora's just a pain in my ass... Temporary at that... So after the meeting she comes over to my area (denim) and I'm putting my purse up and about to open the register and shes like I dont think you take this job seriously enough... I lied through my teeth and told her of course I did... While in my head I'm like why should I? 8 bucks an hour doesn't buy my loyalty or love... Sounds a bit like a song... hehehehe....
So third time of the day, this one after lunch... I had put some stuff on hold for Derrick in ladies shoes and I put a hold tag on em before lunch and put em in the stock room... I go to get em when he comes back from lunch to get em and they're gone... Turns out Ms Dora had taken them and had them put up. A sale that could have been 100$'s or more easily reduced to 50$'s... I only found one shirt and Derrick went back and grabbed 2 more... He threatened to go stomp on her feet (they're all swollen and look like shes in pain) and I said have at it...
BUT in other news (ie fun stuff...) I was on my break and Brian comes in... He went to Denver tonight to visit his sister and go snowboarding till Friday... Lucky brat... Anyway we get to talking and hes like do you get text messaging? And I laughed at him... DO I GET IT!?!?!! I couldnt live without it and I told him as much... So we proceed to text each other the rest of the day.... Hell I just answered another one from him... He's almost to Denver...
Speaking of Brians... Today's the first day I didnt listen to Burke's demo CD since I got it.... Shocking... I just wasn't in the mood... How often can I say THAT?!?!?!
Also speaking of Brians... I did a bit of name analysis today... Most guys named Matt are trouble and I shouldn't get involved with... Brians are usually cute and sweet and I always seem to have a crush on one... Jasons are very every day guys, nice but no sizzle... Joshs are my weakness and prolly some of the greatest guys I've ever known... I've only known a few Seans and there are no real impressions (except for my Seany)... Tom, Tomas, Thomas and Tommy's.... Havent known enough of any of them to really form an impression.... Guys from Dallas are also to be avoided.... No name thing there... Just a random fact... They're hot but they're also ass holes.... For the most part... I didnt really analyze much more than that....
So I was listenin to one of the ex's CDs today and I honestly felt nothing... I was like he's got a good voice and he puts on a hell of a live show but he isn't all that and a bag of cookies the way he thinks he is... He's an asshole and people used to expect me to tame him or make him better somehow... And I think that I did. When we were together... Cuz I would mediate... Its a talent and a curse... Now that we're broken up... And have been a while... He can't stop pissing people off... Those people used to be his friends and most of em are my friends now too in part because of him. So no matter how much shit I went through becuz of him I learned things from him about life and love and gained friends I may never have had if not for him... So I feel as though I should be thanking him....
Happy thought for the night... HB Friday and RRB Saturday both at the Firehouse.... and I'm off work Wednesday and Friday!!!! :)
also my song of the moment... Down In Flames... Brandon and Stoney wrote it together but I prefer Stoney's version... :) The lyrics?

Being on the run, there’s one thing I’ve found
you don’t miss the sun, till the sun goes down
to get to heaven, I’ll go through hell
yeah I’ve learned my lessons, and I’ve learned them well

If I’m going down, I’m going down in flames
from this moment on, aint nothin gonna be the same
one thing’s for certain, everybody’s gonna know my name
if I’m going down, I’m going down in flames

To climb a mountain, you’ve got to risk the fall
to make a difference, you’ve got to risk it all
just like an eagle, spread you wings and fly
aint afraid to loose, aint afraid to die

If I’m going down, I’m going down in flames
from this moment on, aint nothin gonna be the same
one thing’s for certain, everybody’s gonna know my name
if I’m going down, I’m going down in flames
If I’m going down, yeah I’m going down in flames
from this moment on, aint nothin gonna be the same
if you’ve got the fire, I’ve got the gasoline
cause if I’m going down, I’m going down in flames
if I’m going down, I’m going down in flames....

and yes the parts that I'm feeling the most are highlighted... :) thats about it for now... laters.
