Freedom!!!...maybe?

So it's the start of my week-long vacation! A whole week away from my job, although it won't mean that I'll be loafing the entire 7 days. I still have a drawing to start on, and then I'm working the Animethon for C&L Yeah, so on my vacation, I'll probably do more work than my roommate who's been looking for a job since he's unemployed. Actually I got him and H a job working w/ me at Animethon. B/c they need money. B/c he's mooching off her and neither of them are very good at saving.

But for the last 2 days I've been listening to bad calls, working unpaid OT, swearing at the computers and been really super tired. Didn't help that I needed to get up 3 hrs earlier. I was supposed to take over a team for 2 days (why bother?) but then they wanted me to just monitor their calls. But do to 50 calls or 25/day. I told them they were crazy. But I ended up doing about 40 anyways. Which almost a week's worth in 2 days. And coached them too. And it's not like some of the reps will shut up when you bring them over to review their monitors. And you don't really wanna say, "shut the f*ck up, I've got another 15 monitors to do and enter, I don't have time to listen to you prattle. " So I had about 3 sessions that were about an hour long. I'm sooo tired. Since the computers and network there suck so much, you can't pull up multiple systems at a time or they'll crash. Actually this morning we didn't even have the Internet for a while. How pathetic is that? And the system I needed to enter the monitors went down so I couldn't enter them. And I write up my monitors as if I'm going to enter them, which means a lotta arrows, scribbles, and uncircled scoring that's not relevant to the rep but we need to enter. So I had to leave them on my OM's desk w/ a note that I couldn't enter them. Yargh!!!! If the systems weren't so stupid, I wouldn't have to do OT! Although for OT it was only about 1/2 each day, which is really good for me. When I was in Team Leader role, I would do about 1-3 hrs a day.

My stomach's been bugging me lately. Not sure if it's my ulcer-lite coming back. I call it lite b/c I haven't spat up blood, but it hurts bloody lots. I've spent hrs lying in bed rolling around.

Went to Heritage Festival. It wasn't too bad. Went w/ H, D, TT, and AB. Was hoping for a Pokemon mask, but they were sold by the time we got there. Picked up an Ocarina from Peru pavilion, and pencil drum from Afrika pavilion. The food tickets were overly expensive at $0.83 each. And Venezuela was a ripoff compared to the other places. Had a Quesillo and Mango juice from them. Had bannock from the Aboriginal site. Tandoori chicken from Afrika, Combo from Japanese. Finally got to have takoyaki, and it was pretty good. But the okonomiyaki had pickled ginger in it, and it totally overwhelmed the flavour from everything else. Even when I tried to pick it out. Really had to choke it down. Had my fortune told at the Taiwanese and Chinese sites. Both were the fortune sticks. So at Chinese it was just that it'd be good time for new project. My fortune cookie said that I'm a good influence on others. Taiwan said I had a Medium Ordinary Fortune. 1)Litigation would be solved in a hurry. 2)Ailment be prayed early.
