Right now--jumping up and down and saying many prayers of thanks...we're getting a bonus at work

Just when I was totally stressing about how I was going to manage (financially) my trip home for Christmas

yeah, it was one of those situations where i could tell she felt like a dumbass after she said it and i was so glad.

and yeah, i don't know what she was talking about. COPicolla? maybe if you're IN italy. but we're not. everyone says cap. whatever.

what the hell did that caller expect you to say? "sweet, i'll get on the bat-phone and inform the president that joe **** from ass****, colorado doesn't like the way he says nuclear. thanks!"??

I was just thinking of snarky remarks that would have been fun - but alas we have that whole customer/community service thing we focus on...I already freaked out my boss after the first irate caller I ever got here, I told him about it and he said, "what did you tell him?" I replied, "I just told him to f*ck off!" The look on his face was priceless...

right now: Writing my 6:30pm newscast.
