lol yeah that movie was a sleeper comedy. saw it one day on comedy central, pretty f'in funny. i remember i saw a trailer for it in the movie theater but i think they pulled it before they it actually got shown so straight to dvd and cable i believe.
shoot, i too am a friendly talk to everyone say hi person.
my work problem is that the other 2 similarily situated attorneys (30 something assocaites) have taken a shit ton of time off this summer. ive been here everyday except for 5 days i took off for abdominal surgery last month.
so i had court 2 days ago and yesterday. yesterday being the biggest moment so far in my career in arguing an appeal to a 3 judges of the md court of special appeals. ive been working hard all week on this as well as all my other cases. i have been into work early, staying late, spent all night wed preparing.
so yesterday comes, i do real real well with the appeal (but we lose anyway). i woke up at 6 that morning, we get back to the office, i check in with the other law firm i work for, do some work for my main law firm, i tell one of the associates (who has taken off more days than she has worked the past 2 months, no exagerration) that i am going to try and sneak out of here. its about 2:30. she has the f'in nerve to give me shit about it. i tell her that ive been holding down the fort while she and the other associate has taking off weeks at a time.
get into work this morning, guess who isnt here? she isnt.
guess who has a 1 pm pretrial? she does
guess how she comes into work? in jeans
guess who has to go to the pretrial? the other assocaite which i actualyl wish wa sme b/c then i could go home afterwards instead of waiting for a client to show up at 4 for our 3 pm meeting.
come to find out, she left a half hour after i did yesterday. she came into work at noon today in regualr clothes.
when i come in late (which happens b/c of my long commute and traffic) like today b/c 495 was jammed and i had to take back roads where traffic signal lights are still out, the boss says "hey look who finally decided to show up". if i dont wear a tie, he says "hey look who must be going to the beach cuz he certainly doesnt look like hes here to work"
she shows up at freakin noon and not a word is said. she shows up in jeans a couple days a week, he will literally bust on me for not wearing a tie while she sits there in jeans. WTF!
i guess since im a decent working, if theres something that needs to get done ill do it type who doesnt complain while she will coplain about anything to teh point the boss walks on eggshells so she wont flip out over being assigned a task and just leave for the day.
not to sound shovenistic but every place i have worked there has been a person who slacks the most yet complains about others the most. everytime that person has been a woman. having her give me crap about leaving a few hours early after i spent literally this entire summer working my ass off with the culmination being that appeal, i deserve some time off. she takes weeks off every month now. i havent taken a day off not related to surgery since april. and that was one freakin day.
god damn im so ****ing pissed now typing this shit out. to work hard and then she has teh audacity to call me out for leaving at 2:30 only to have her leave at 3? then coming in at noon. then not even going to your own pretrial? if i did that i would get cursed out. maybe i need to bitch and moan and complain and when i dont get my way just storm out for the day so someone else has to do my work.
