We got finished with our training at 11:15 and cleaned out the classroom by 11:30. It's now 2pm and nobody can figure out what to do with us. So we wait.

I want to see a human being on fire running around screaming. I mean in person. Not on a screen.

We just got a Fedex shipment of LL Bean goodies. Which my mum tried to give to me. I'M SORRY BUT I REALLY DON'T NEED ANY! MORE! SHOES!!! It was my New Years Resolution to stay out of shoe shops.

Well bosso finally showed up, determined that there was no good reason for those of us remaining to actually be at work any longer, and I took off for home.

All the trains are sold out until the Express at 5pm, which costs twice as much but what am I complaining for.

― TOMBOT, Friday, 30 January 2004 20:13 (twenty years ago) link

Yes, but express trains make up for being EXPENSIVE by being FAST!!! Rock on.

I just went out for one more souvenier run, picked up Monterey Jack for Suzy and some maple type products for HSA's mum.

Fuck fast, I could arrive earlier on a much less expensive train if I had been able to leave work when we got finished instead of waiting around for 2 1/2 hours.

― TOMBOT, Friday, 30 January 2004 20:37 (twenty years ago) link

Grrr, that is frustrating. Hey, at least you have your choice of trains. Did I mention the fact that there is ONE Greyhound from Bennington to NYC a day?

― The River Kate (kate), Friday, 30 January 2004 20:40 (twenty years ago) link

No, you didn't. Haha I have so many reasons for hating buses, I'm sorry.

― TOMBOT, Friday, 30 January 2004 20:42 (twenty years ago) link

Traffic? This is Vermont. Oh whoops, sorry, we have to stop the bus, there are some cows in the road.

I am so bored that I just walked from the bathroom to the door to my office without bending my knees, just for the excitement.

― n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 15 October 2004 18:41 (nineteen years ago) link

I hope they let ya off early M, so's you can kick back and relax a bit.

― AaronHz (AaronHz), Friday, 15 October 2004 18:44 (nineteen years ago) link

You should walk from the bathroom to your door on your knees next time, for giggles.

― jocelyn (Jocelyn), Friday, 15 October 2004 18:45 (nineteen years ago) link

OK.
When I got back to the door to my office, I realized I had left my keys in my bag (within the office) so I had to knock on the door until someone let me back in. This would probably be even more embarassing if I were on my knees.

― n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 15 October 2004 18:47 (nineteen years ago) link

I am waiting to take my lunch so the second my boss walks back in the dorr so that I don't have to look at his stupid face.

― adam. (nordicskilla), Friday, 15 October 2004 18:49 (nineteen years ago) link

The last day at work you should make a dartboard with his face on it.

― adam. (nordicskilla), Friday, 15 October 2004 19:23 (nineteen years ago) link

To keep my ass from occasionally going numb (and consequently turning to jello), I flex it every so often. It makes me feel...saucy.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 15 October 2004 19:25 (nineteen years ago) link

yeah but what's the new job?

― battlin' green eyeshades (Homosexual II), Friday, 15 October 2004 19:26 (nineteen years ago) link
