Things that annoy me lately.
So, I’ve been complaining lately that I work with stupid people. Here are a couple prime examples. I’ve changed the names to protect the guilty.
I actually had specific examples, but I’m too tired to type them all out. Let’s just say that government bureaucracy at its best infuriates me.
That “Spanish Armada” shawl I mentioned a while ago? Had to frog it completely. I screwed up somewhere along the line, and couldn’t figure out where, so I just ripped the whole thing out and put it aside for now.
However, I did start the Queen Anne’s Lace shawl, and it’s moving along wonderfully. I’m at somewhere around row 110. Still not a fan of the “Aegean Blue” I bought, but we’ll see when it’s washed and blocked. And if I still hate it, there’s always over dyeing it.
Klumpen and I went on an adventure on Saturday. TOH and I have promised to pay for her first tattoo as her 18th birthday present. So, she did all the research, decided what she wants done and found a tattoo artist that came recommended. Saturday afternoon, we made the trek to the studio for the consultation. I was impressed with the artist. She asked questions and seemed interested in the project.
I’m still debating my tattoo. I’d like one, but haven’t had any luck with a design that really speaks to me. A couple of friends had done some preliminary sketches, but not much further.
I have a new boss, finally. But not really. The agency hired from within, so my new boss is someone I’ve worked with for a while now. But this person is still doing her previous job, and therefore not paying a lot of attention to the 3 of us who now work directly for her. Which isn’t really bad, just frustrating. Otherwise, things aren’t too different from what they usually are.
And I guess that last sentence applies to the rest of my life, too.
