TheSilentOne, awesome that things are going better at work. I'm curious about how that happened, if you don't mind sharing. If I recall, they had started being rotten to you.
Birthdays are awesome, if stuff actually works out. It's a real downer when a party turns into 2-3 people, assuming you're actually looking forward to the party that is. It also sucks when my friends from different places, and/or their significant others, dom't get along in a group. Like, I have a close friend who is socially awkward with women, that's an understatement, and it's caused problems. We've tried talking to him about it, but he still crosses the line. That's just one example.
Random annoyance of the day: some landline cordless phones are just obnoxious. And why on earth would someone make a cordless phone nowadays that doesn't let you change the screechy, annoying intercom ringtone?
I was thisclose to leaving, but I decided to give it another chance. The pay is excellent and my coworkers are great. I think my manager noticed how hard I work and how I always show up when I need to be there (and when I'm not going to be there, I let her know in advance). She has been very nice to me lately and actually has been complimenting my work. Maybe it is also because I am starting to get the hang of things there so I don't ask as many silly questions.
