Not enough hours in the day

My fellow co. worker "idiot? is always complaining there's not enough hours in the day. "No" I say. "Now you're part time you need to manage your time better and get things done." Today he's been chased by customers because he's been running late. The customer he measured first came into the showroom with her selection. she dropped into the conversation he'd sat down for a while with her husband had a nice cuppa and a very nice lengthy conversation about guitars and music. Well there's never going to be enough time in a day if you spend too much time talking sh** is there?

Too many words!!!

One of my fellow co. workers "idiots?" uses too many words. When challenged about something he hasn't done he bamboozles you with unnecessary words. I have just spoken to a customer who has spoken to this "idiot?" this morning and he wasn't impressed by his unnecessary over word use either. Apparently he told the customer all his woes! I'm feeling embarrassed that this "idiot?" thinks he's fooling us all with his knowledge and troubled lifestyle. When all he's really doing is peeing us all off!!!

Who do you think your are?

Last week a fellow co. worker "idiot?" enquired could we have some more expensive stock carpet as he thought it would sell well. "yes" I replied cheerfully "would you like me to take the money to pay for it out of your wages or would you like to pay for it now?" He looked at me as if I was mad. His plan was that we should take down our good value for money stock. Store it and put the more expensive stock in it's place and see if it would sell. The stock we have is paid for by us and is selling very well. So I had to wonder what is logic was. When I enquired about the payment options I gave him he told me he didn't think it would be a problem as I had money. I soon informed him "I don't have spare money to spend on stock I don't need, in fact if I had spare money would I come to work every day? No I bloody wouldn't I'd stay at home read books paint my nails and generally please myself! am I going on holiday for eighteen days soon? No I'm bloody not so it's obvious to me you have more spare money than me!" He looked at me in his way and said "well you look like you've got money." This made me wonder how do you look like you've got money? I don't drive a new car. I don't wear designer clothes. I'm not dripping in gold and diamonds. I don't live in a mansion. So how the hell do I give the impression I've got money?

Moody mare

Yesterday a fellow co. worker "idiot?" accused me of being sharp. This has not gone down well in my book. I am the least moody member of staff we have. Don't get me wrong I'm not a saint, but rarely am I in a bad mood, and if I am I tend to go around telling everyone "I'm feeling grumpy today" I tell them because it doesn't happen often and I want to warn them.
As far as I was aware I was having a good day. I was as happy as you can be at 8.30 on a Thursday. I came in cleaned the showroom and set about making a round of tea. Apart from standing on my desk and singing "GOOD MORNING GOOD MORNING MAKE TODAY A SUNBLEST DAY" I don't think I could have been any more cheery. The only thing I can think of is I'm starting to show my age and my happy on the inside is not getting to the outside.

My husband and I

Today we are short staffed. My fellow co. worker "idiot?" who works the shop with me is sailing the high seas.It being winter the operative word here is HIGH I would imagine. Anyhow he's not back for eighteen days. My other fellow co. worker "idiot?" who could man the shop with me is on the road all day. So you would think husband fellow co. worker "idiot?" would be here to help out wouldn't you? Well at 9.30 this morning he popped out "I have to go out again at 11.30" he said "but I'll be back in a minute." It's now 1.15 and all I've heard from him is a phone call in which he said "I can't talk now I'll phone you back." That was at least 2 hours ago. Tonight when the shop closes he'll say "what's for tea?" he'll enter the spotless house I cleaned before work this morning, enter the bathroom with a soft fluffy towel I washed and dried. Climb into the lovely bed I made this morning and tell me "HE'S TIRED!!!!"
