So I gave…
…him too much credit. What happened that day though, felt like fishing. I was sitting at my desk, trying to finish a report for a project I spent no actual construction time on (except for a pre-bid meeting) and he just starts acting like a dick. Point blank. A dick.
We had to have our timesheets in early this week due to the holidays coming up. And he asked me if I had done mine yet.
Me: *distracted answer because I’m trying to finish a Record of Construction (ROC) report* No, I haven’t done mine yet… I still got an hour and its not going to take me that long to finish it.
Nancy Boy: Well you should do it now.
Me: I’ll do it when I’m ready to do it.
Nancy Boy: Its due at 3, you have to do it now. *acting like he’s my superior*
Me: I KNOW its due at 3. DO NOT lecture me. *getting irritated because I’m in the middle of trying to concentrate on writing the ROC report*
*long quiet pause*
Nancy Boy: On a scale of 1 to 10, how much do you hate me?
Me: *long sigh* Which is highest and which is lowest?
Nancy Boy: *half mumbled answer*
The answer I gave him was that hate is a strong word. I don’t hate him. I find him obnoxious and irritating. But I don’t hate him. He hasn’t pulled anything on me that would cause me to hate him… yet. But I do not like to be bossed around when I have other priorities and I’m trying to concentrate on that priority, especially when its on something I’m not even sure if I’m doing right. That’s a sure sign that you’ll get a short answer from me. Most people at the office have figured out that you leave Kristina alone when she’s in the zone or not paying attention to things around her.
I really wish they would hurry up and order the divider for the other side of Junior Engineer area… where I WANTED my office originally. Then maybe I wouldn’t feel I have to be defensive with him all the time or be on guard.
Anyways… good things this week? Joe sent me purple lilacs :) That made my week. He’s also a free man come Monday at 1500 hours! He’ll be in Elko relatively soon… it all depends on how long he decides to visit his family. I told him to take his time… especially with me going to Baja at the end of next week.
That’s about it… I’m working this weekend, sitting on my butt watching removal of capping stone and happen to get the wireless card and got lucky in finding an okay spot with a constant bar or two. Signal is shady. The site might disappear sometime this weekend while I try to figure out why I have a redirect problem. Just an FYI.


I thought you may be doing something to your site at the weekend seeing as I couldn’t reach it. Hooray, it works again…

What a fantastic answer to nancies question though, “which is highest and which is lowest” is just pure genius, it says plenty without giving him an answer.

It does say plenty, but whether or not I can give him enough credit to be able to figure it out is unknown to me. I definitely don’t give him a 10 in the brights department.
Site is working for the moment… it appears.

With luck, he will be fired… out of a cannon.
