Today I got stressed out because one of the co-s at work changed the radio station from NPR to the Patriots game.
co- "I'm changing this to get the score of the Pats game".
me- "are you serious?!"
co- "yes."
me- "can't you just call someone for the score?"
co- "this is easier."
me- "pppppbt!" (that's the sound of me sticking out my tongue. Ashamed? Yes.)
I work Sundays exclusively. My set my day to Maine Public Radio's weekend programming. Today we had inventory. A separate company comes in to count everything. So from 12:30 on, I had to share my workspace (which on a good day accommodates three people at most) with nine strangers. I wasn't able to process anything because it was being counted. I had a rack of satin kimonos (you'll have to take my word that these are terrible, tricky, time-consuming wastes of cloth to steam) to keep me busy. So I wasn't exactly in a fantastic mood. But at least I had NPR. Until my co- changed the station.
They didn't even win. The Patriots got their asses kicked. I ask, was it worth it?!
