Rough Few Days

July 17th, 2015 at 11:20 pm

I just typed up a huge rant about the last few days, but then decided it probably was overshare.

So, long and short .. big project I'd worked on a few weeks ago that I had to send on before it was finished, got published to the public. Meeting yesterday with coworker and boss was about it. Me explaining what happened. Ended with me going on a junkfood spending spree after work.

*This project I worked on was helping out coworker with something. She was out for a week with surgery/recovery while I was trying to finish said project. Was told to send it on to head boss even though I told them it wasn't ready.*

This morning wasn't much better ... but got better once I got working on actually finishing the document. (got pulled from the public)

Am way overtired and hormonal which is probably affecting my reactions to this, as well as Airbnb thing. (Haven't heard anymore from customer service.)

I've decided to look into other places to go for my getaway. Possibly Kansas City - something called Water World I think NE said is there. I may just do one night away instead of two though, then have two days at my place to r&r. Maybe take in some things around here too.

No spend day #14 I think

    Sorry it was a bad week at the job. Frown
    I was hoping to touch base with you when I drop my daughter off at school, but I think those are the same dates you are out of town! Geez...will we ever meet?!

    Kansas City is fun, too! I don't know what Water World is...but I went to Worlds of Fun many, many times (it's an amusement park).

    Thanks, the first few days were fine - just Th/Friday were a beast.

    Really?! One of these days we'll meet! Smile
    That's what he was talking about - World's of Fun! (I am so brain slow right now it isn't even funny ...)

    Will NE go with you? It's been awhile since I've been to KC, so I'm a little rusty on things to do there. The art museum might be free. There was a toy museum we visited once. Union Station is neat, and connected to Crown Center for shopping. The Hallmark Visitors center is neat...also free. And something new that I haven't been to is the Power and Light District...or something like that!

    Yes, we will meet at some point!!

    No, NE won't be coming with me - he has to work. Plus he's not all that into roller-coasters ... and that's the main type of ride I'll probably want to concentrate on. Smile
    Thanks for the ideas - will definitely check them out. Smile
    I sure hope so!! Big Grin

    Sorry to hear your work gave you a hard time! They shouldn't be too hard on you if it's not your duty and you're filling in for somebody/helping somebody out. Hopefully you can gain some knowledge like you were looking to and everything will be all smoothed over soon. It sounds like you're really good with customer service from what I've read from your posts, so if they give you a hard time remember that you still have skill and you still have value (sometimes employers and management forget this after a while).
    Wishing you a lovely weekend and a much nicer week!

    Sorry your foray into airbnb has let you down so badly you've had to rejig your trip. Hoping your alternative destination works out better than expected to make up a bit for it!

    Thanks everyone!

    CCF - Which part of that weekend will you be here? I'm thinking of either doing Friday/Saturday, or Sunday/Monday out of town, and the other part in town. Just haven't decided for sure yet.
