Grrr…. what a pain in the arse day! You remember those 18000 lip balm lids I had to put on? The client has decided they’ve sent us the wrong ones. So they’ve all got to be done again!
Today is usually my day off, but because of the cock-up I offered to go in this afternoon and start putting the new lids on. That would be great, my boss said. So, I turn up at 2pm, only to be told that they won’t need doing today and I have to do labelling instead. I had the strangest feeling I was gonna get told to do blasted labels today! I was fuming! So I told them I was going home. They didn’t like that, but I went anyway. It’s my bloody day off after all!
P had to take me home and I felt really bad for him as they needed him at work. I hope he doesn’t get shouted at.
But the fun wasn’t over yet. On the way home we hit a deer! There were two of them, and P was so busy trying to avoid the first one that he didn’t see the second until it hit the car. We pulled over and P chased after it. Fortunately though, I think we only touched it slightly and she was running away from us at full pelt looking perfectly okay. Phew! We initially thought we had hit it head-on because there was a nasty crunch and bits of something went flying into the road. Turns out the deer had kicked our front fog-light and smashed it to pieces. It’s no problem as it never worked anyway and at least the deer was safe.
So that’s my afternoon. Rather eventful, eh?
