So I need a gass mask to survie work, looks like

One thing that was really horrible today:

Due to the huge increase in manpower (more than 150% in less than 2 years) CP is building a new building. And connecting it to the old one so that the end result will be one huge-ass structure. Well and good.

However. Right now they are connecting the old building to the new one. So they had to switch between the two wings of the building – my department was moved to the side adjacent to the new building, because we are the smaller department who takes less space. And the other one, OE, was moved to our old wing.

So, aside from the small annoying fact that they have lost all my personal things during the transit (It was packed into a box and drawered, with my name on it. Not found. ), right now we are sitting (and need to work) right in the heart of a construction area. And that means drilling, drilling, drilling, dust, dust, dust, and fucking Toxic gases that had made me literally ill today for a good three hours, until the air cleared up a bit. I don’t want to think about the long-termed health implications. Is there any use to it?

But I’m not very happy. Really felt like I’m choking today, slowly but surely, and it was seriously not fun.

Work can be funny sometimes. Or else - How come that I </I am the Adult around here

One of the things I like best at work is that my co-workers are - good-natured kids who tease each other to death. So a while ago, much to my delight, they begin to include me in this. It's all in fun, and there is absolutely no malicious intent in that. So, as such, I feel comfortable enough to play along and tease right back.

So. Right now - I kid you not - I'm the Elected Responsible adult here among those 4 year old boys (because, as one of them said, my mental level is at least 8 years old, and theirs is 4 at best.)

Oh, by the way, three of the five have children, but it really does not matter, looks like.

Today one of them said that for the first month or so I managed to fool them by applying the "cute girl" mask all too well, and that they were happily please to discover that I'm not so cute, after all.

Could not think of a better compliment :)

Day report

Am home now after an exhausting day at work, and my day tomorrow will start at 6:20, alas. However, after work I will meet an old friend (H who was my roommate for 2 years. Surprisingly our friendship survived which is nothing short of a miracle. I am not the easiest roommate ever...ask my BF). We are to celebrate my BD at Unami. Yea, good Sushi! ( Yes, I know, it's half a year too late but... )

And than later tomorrow we are to have

hagar_972 for dinner and CM. Double Yea!.

Went on icon hunting and fished 2 new ones, courtesy of

hagar_972, to be used when angry. Am using the milder one now as I am still pissed of at my mom and other problems at work. Will also change the icon of the previous post accordingly.

Well, should go shower and somehow diffuse myself as there is no way I will fall asleep otherwise which will spell a miserable day tomorrow.

Am afraid I will have a big trouble with sleep comes Monday night. Wish I was brave enough.

ALL RIGHT. Enough with ranting. To shower now.
