everybodys working for the weekend
Just a quick recap from yesterday.I arrived late for my Upper GI test at the hospital. The woman at the office told me 10:45 but wrote down 10:00, thankfully I went in earlier than usual and only ended up being 10 minutes late. The test itself wasn't too bad, I first had to drink this Alka-Seltzer mixture to expand my stomach and then drink this horrific think chalky liquid with barium salt in it to outling my stomach walls. No flavoring could mask the taste of that shit and I had to chug it down as fast as I could. Blech! Then take a couple X-ray photos and I was done. The whole procedure only took about 10 minutes.
I casually came back to work around 12:30 (I say casually because the test was done at 11:15 and I was in no rush to come into work anytime soon). Work went fine until 4:30 where for the first time I experienced Corecomm Déjà vu. I was answering phones for the front desk when this man calls in at 4:45 to request some assistance with his campaign. I wont go into exactly what was said but it included all the classic Corecomm Customer assery there. The "I'm going to repeat my situation to you 6 times because I feel sooner or later, you're going to give me what I want even though you haven't yet...", The "Is there no one else there that can answer this question for me?" (Not at 4:45 on a FRIDAY YOU ASSHOLE!), The "Well who is in charge of that and can I have their extension?", etc....etc....Plus it didn't help that sometime during that same hour the phone cord to the handset broke and I had to literally hold it in place so I could hear what this guy was blabbing on and on about for 15 minutes. Ugh! and to think I use to put up with this shit day after day after day. Although sometimes, its a lot easier to get through your day knowing you've ruined the life of some ghetto trash in Cleveland by shutting her phone service off that it is dealing in politics.
Back on Monday.
