Some asshole ran into the wrong islands and we decided I have the day off tomorrow and I’m okay with that

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

But he was a bad man and people complained so now I have to work tomorrow.

Complain more to the point where you acknowledge his victims, and you can have the day off again

I packed all my shit this morning. Coffee beans, grinder, mug, lunch, silverware, laptops, earphones, I was on it. I got to work, unpacked my stuff, and that's when it hit me:

I have coffee. I do not have a K cup to put my coffee in. Work doesn't stock coffee for the Keurig. So I have my coffee, but I have no way to make it.

I went downstairs to use the vending machine. I'm okay paying $3.75 for a NOS. Jammed my card in, pressed the button, and waited....and waited...and waited........card declined. The card reader then said cashless was out of order. I'm broke, but I'm not that broke.

Whatever. I just took the elevator down and hit up a local coffee shop a short walk away. $6 for a 12 ounce latte before tip. Yay, I guess? The coffee was damn good and I'm finally awake so I suppose it was worth it.

Mondays are my only day to come into the office. I work from home the rest of the week. They're not usually this chaotic, but man, this morning has been a fucking train wreck.
