Skip this first long paragraph if you think its`something crafty, cause it`s not!
So I'm having issues at work. I.KNOW!
It's with the mechanic.
I bother him.
I'm not sure why, cause he's over in the shop, but I do.
He comes to the office 2-3 times a day, and he's cranky.
He's a glass half empty kinda guy.
He complains about the stuff he has to fix, which I think is a tad hypocritical; it would be like me complaining that I HAVE to do payroll, or the invoicing, or getting the mail.....see where I'm goin here.....IT'S.MY.JOB!
I asked him Friday for a copy of his drivers licence.
He ignored me.
Our insurance is due, and as we have a fleet, we have to send copies of everyone's drivers licence to the insurance company. I don't see a problem with it. I had to include mine this year.
Today.....on his ONLY trip to the office while I was there.
Me: "Can I get a copy of your drivers licence?"
Him: "What for?"
Me: "Insurance needs it."
Him: "What; you wanna see if I have an impaired?"
Me: "Do ya?"
Needless to say, that was the end of that conversation.
One of my GF's told me to kill him with kindness.
Today..........I just wanted to kill him!
Today when I came back from town, the invoicing I was working on this morning (at a different desk, cause the guys check it), was moved, and someone had been through the stuff ON my desk.
I thought I could handle this, but I'm deciding he's a cry baby and a trouble maker, and I'm watching my ass!
Last Friday he called K, who's out in the bush, who called D, who is out in the bush, and D called me.
HELL O! Walk across the yard dammit! Or call ME!
He told me about his problem that afternoon on a trip to the office anyway!?
Alrighty, I think I'm done venting.
I think he's the one with issues!
I'm gonna put my big girl panties on and deal with it!
I'm gonna suck it up!
I`ll think of something!
Thanks for listening!
OK, you guys know I made my cards for CCAYR!
They`re here!
Make fun all you want, I don`t want any whining when yours aren`t done in December!
A little reminder....I made these.
But first, I made these
And wasn`t happy with them!
This weekend I made a couple of these
That`s both sides of that paper out of my stash......I`m trying to use it up, how else can I justify getting new double sided paper!?
I`m working on some Thinking of You , or something cards right now....also with paper out of my stash!
Here`s Mr. Luck moving snow; as it`s been snowing off & on all weekend; so the propane truck can get in sometime this week!
We`re down to 5% propane, and I didn`t have to threaten him with the `You know what'll happen if there`s no hot water for a shower one of these mornings?"
It`s an empty threat any how, cause he probably doesn`t like cold showers any more than I do!
That tractor is stuck down the drive way on the other side of the road, in the ditch right now!
I didn`t laugh or anything.
He phoned me, and I took the pickup down there, and let him hook a chain up to the pickup, and let the tractor swing me around into the other ditch when the pickup wouldn`t pull the tractor out!
I did laugh all the way home though, as Shadow and I walked up the driveway (1/4 mile), and Ray went to see if the neighbor`s home!
Made me feel better.
It was right after my rant!
I`m still smiling!
Only I`m hoping no one comes to visit, as the drag the tractor was pulling is in the middle of the driveway, I used the pickup to pull it off the road!
The drag is a big ugly triangular thing, made out of metal, it moves the snow to the side as the tractor pulls it.
Better go!
At least it`s warmed up, no more -30 I`m hoping!
Ta ta for now!

Great cards Gail.
Well I guess I won't whine about the snow around here anymore. :)
There is always a whiner in every bunch. Lend him your big girl panties.

Love YOUR reply about the 'impaired driving charge'! It must really suck to do a job that you hate to do and he's obviously not too thrilled with his.
The snow is gradually melting here and every time that happens, we get another dumping!
Nice job on the cards, BTW.
OK, everything that makes me cringe is in here, snow and Christmas cards in March! Now you've made me queasy (even though the cards are pretty). I think you should be required to have a warning at the top of your blog post alerting us that there are Christmas cards coming! LOL Best, Curt
