i had to work today which is kind of a bummer ‘cos it’s sunday and i’m a monday-friday gal, y’know? but i’m getting too busy. i dare not complain about having too much work, right? because honestly i’m thankful that i’ve been able to have so much work because i was worried when dad quit that i would have a hard time finding work, but it’s been very steady and in fact, it’s getting to be overwhelming.
the job i start on monday is HUGE and that = cheese, but the lady i’m working for is PUSHY. and i HATE THAT. and i swear, if she doesn’t BACK OFF i WILL QUIT. no kidding, she’s really demanding. and it’s getting to the point where i’m afraid my Smart Mouth is going to start talking. she called me friday night, okay? 7:45pm. to tell me i can start the job. so i tell her i’ll be there monday. she says, “well, would you be able to come before then?”
“… no.”
“can you start this weekend?”
“um, no i can’t. but i can be there monday.”
she constantly does stuff like that. i told her when i first looked at the job that i don’t take down wallpaper and that if she wants all the borders and things taken down to find someone to do that because i don’t do that.
“jaimie, they do want the borders taken down.”
“oh, well i don’t do that.”
“yes, but can you do that?”
“um, well, i don’t do that. i just paint.”
“but it’s really easy.”
“i’m sure it is. but i only paint. i told you that last week.”
“well, could your dad come and help you take it down?”
“no. my father works all day.”
“well maybe he knows someone who takes down wallpaper?”
“i don’t think so, i mean, if he knew someone then i would know them too, and i don’t know anyone.”
“well, can you find someone?”
“no. i just paint.”
FOR THE LOVE! IT’S CALLED THE YELLOW PAGES!
i mean, round and round! i really think i’m going to end up losing it and i’ll either quit or get fired.
