Those overtime hours are a great bonus! Keep in mind that it is easy to become distracted and we neglect ourselves. I am glad things are working out for you. Take care of yourself and then enjoy the fruits of your labor! Report Inappropriate Comment

Tracy, I can remember working overtime many times to help out. It is hard to do sometimes, especially with so little sleep. Take good care of yourself. Nancy Report Inappropriate Comment

Remarkable it takes 40 minutes from the time the capsule goes down until we see a miner emerge-- Let's pray all goes well and all are rescued safely.

I am simply amazed at all the hard work and devoted people. I have watched this all day and keep up with it because I think it is wonderful that a country can all come together and pull those wonderful looking families together. Under the ground for 69 days can you imagine, the technology that came together and pulled those hardworking men out of a mine shaft. It was very emotional for me. I know the love it takes to do something of the nature, and you certainly could see the love and hear the comments the guys were making, IT is simply amazing. Report Inappropriate Comment

You can't do one error-- EVERYBODY knows I made a mistake by not coming in at 5pm thanks to a coworker who can do no wrong *cough cough* Sorry I was choking on a lie.. People need to mind their business and keep my name out of their mouth! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...Hey when we are all working all this crazy overtime then getting cancelled it is easy to make a mistake.. I NEVER SAID I Was perfect... OH and I guess their issue is that misery likes company-- I am sorry I am so happy all the time!

Argh, super annoying right? Don't let anyone get to you. Easier said than done, I know, but ignoring them is the best way to shut them up. I'd say when they inevitably make a mistake, jam it down their throats, but I know you're too nice to do that. Report Inappropriate Comment

So sorry you are the center of attention in a bad way. Buy that chickie a cupcake and GIVE it to her ... when her mouth is wide open! OK, the thought of that made you laugh, right? Not that we'd do it, but we can sure think about it! Sleep well today, my friend. This too shall pass. Report Inappropriate Comment

ARIES1022 10/12/2010 4:29AM

Don't let it get to you. You will always have a few people who do that. In due time, they will slip up and have everyone talking about them. It's a vicious cycle that will sadly never end. Report Inappropriate Comment

DAWNWATERWOMAN 10/12/2010 2:31AM

Sorry that you're having to deal with crap at work. Just try to let it go and do your job in peace. Bright blessings to you my friend. You're pretty close to perfect in my eyes. Love ya, Dawn Report Inappropriate Comment

SO I was about to enjoy a DVR'd show and some dinner with my daughter at 5:30 pm, when my phone rings... it was my coworker saying I was supposed to be at work.. I generally work 11pm-730am...I recall her asking if I would work extra but she never told me she scheduled me for it. Every time she schedules me she tells me and I put it in my calendar on my phone.. SO I then showered and went to bed.. Lucifur pulled the "cat stopper" from under my door and visited twice...woke at 930 and zipped to work by 10pm...my coworker who stepped in (she lives down the stereet from work and was not due until 7am) and worked 6pm-10pm locked her keys in her car.. I was feeling so bad like it was my fault

Don't feel bad. Even supervisors screw up sometimes, and they're certainly not above letting someone else take the fall for it. You work too much as it is :) Report Inappropriate Comment

Days like that happen! Look on the bright side - things can only improve. Mom got her new cat today. Boots is curious and I think he'd like to be friends with her (Mandy), but she's having nothing to do with him. They haven't fought, but they've been very vocal. Mom is worried they'll never get along but I told her to give them some time. Sheila Report Inappropriate Comment
