Getting inconvenienced at work. They are replacing all of the carpet, but with all of the cubicles and equipment in place, as well as employees everywhere. Is there a way to do this that's any more illogical? :confused:

Opened up a dispute with Equifax. Turns out my ONE credit card account, which is obviously active, they have listed as closed. They're reporting no history, and no open accounts, which results in that score being 130 points below the other 2. Can't be having that! :no:

Working. Then going home to put a few other cars online. I've sold (or traded) 4 this week. Soon enough I might have a spot to park again!

Another day in the cube, looks to be a slow day since a lot of people took Good Friday off. My boss being one of them, AND the contractors are supposed to start trying to lay down carpet squares today, so I may sneak out a little early. You know, to give them access and room to finish my area. :satan: My floor is currently a tacky mess, due to the glue residue from the previous carpet. Bottoms of my shoes look like :lipsrsealed: because of that. :mad:

Later on, meeting up with some folks for drinks, catching up, and some laughs. Should be a good time. Just have to figure out when and where. Minor details... :Lager Louts:

Congrats on becoming a great grand-dad!

Doing the work thing today. I'll machining a mold for a leak tester were building all day since we need these seals asap. Crunch time for me I guess. We've been so busy here that I haven't had time to work on any of my side projects

2 guys, 6 girls, 5 hours, LOTS of alcohol, and sore cheeks from tons of mostly inappropriate conversations and laughter. Great night! :yes:

Edit: Was also introduced to the "selfie stick" I had no idea this was actually a thing. One of the girls received on as a gift and brought it along. She was taking selfies with EVERYONE in the bar. At first they'd be like "Who the hell are you, and why are you trying to take pics with us?" Then people started getting into it, and wanting to take pics with her. I'm sure the booze had plenty to do with that, on both sides :tongue:

Back at work machining another mold we need asap. Biggest one I've worked on so far. The first one turned out well for only being the second one I had ever machined, and not having the exact tooling I needed

Went and saw Furious 7 in IMAX, good series finale IMO. Clearing some DVR now, may grab a nap, then watch the final four games this evening.

Worked earlier. Went outside with my dude and dug holes in the dirt. He's only two and almost talked him into eating a worm. He licked it but then thought twice. Just trying to build his immune system up that's all. Now watching some final four.

Easter brunch with my family at my brother's place. Then over to my lady's family's house for Easter lunch/dinner. I'll be representing us at everything solo today since her work does not close for holidays.

Made Easter breakfast at the crib then heading to Monster-in-Law's house later for dinner. Most likely a few Sam Adams as well.

No family close so the wife and I had a date day. Seen Furious7, really good. I am sure the series will continue for a Furious8.

Steak house for dinner. Now back at home finishing some chores and relaxing.

Yesterday, Towed the utility trailer 150 miles to and from West Salem to pick up a couple 454s for other projects. TB ran like a champ even with 2500lbs or so of unbraked trailer. Today, unloading the trailer and working in the barn at the other house. Tennants had sealed up the back 12'x12' siding door and it took a while to get the nails out, break the silicone and Great Stuff sprayed all around the frame. Managed to strain my wrist somehow too,

Got to work a little early today. I knew they started replacing the carpet on Friday, and were going to work over the weekend, so I was eager to see if they had built my new desk yet, so I could settle in or not. Did a quick walk through the office, and my new desk is supposed to be here... :no:

20150406_070345.jpg



Ugh, that's the old carpet too, so they didn't make it this far up. Few more days in the old area shouldn't be too bad. At least there should be new carpet, and the office is done, so they shouldn't be bugging me, or getting my stuff dirty/dusty anymore right? Get back to where my stuff should be, only to find this...

20150406_070423.jpg



(Eric Cartman voice) DAMNIT!!! :hissyfit:

So now I'm wandering around the office trying to figure out where the hell they moved my stuff, so I can setup and get to work. Actually glad I was there 10 minutes early, so I didn't look weird to people. Then I notice something, all of the cubes that are still up, don't have computers, or phones, or personal effects. :undecided: Back track through the rest of the office, and NOTHING is hooked up.
wtf.gif


I thought I had checked my work email over the weekend to see if there were any updates from the admin assistant, so I checked my phone. Nope. Nothing. So I keep wandering around, and then in a pile of crap outside where my desk should be, I see a familiar green bumper sticker that was in my cube, and then my name plate...

20150406_070517.jpg



And then in another pile of stuff near that, I see my PC...

20150406_070536.jpg



You know when people get so mad that a vein pops out of their head near their temple, and starts pulsing? Yeah, I think I felt that happening. So I head to the front, and sit down at the receptionist's desk. It was about 10 after 7 then, and the contractors are usually here already. If they weren't there by quarter after, I was going to reset the alarm, lock up and go home. F this!

Lead contractor comes in while I'm showing another early bird employee the chaos. Aparently he didn't come in over the weekend so he had no idea how much progress was made, or that none of the computers had been setup. He apologized to me, since I've been getting inconvenienced every other day it seems like. Told him it was fine, the stuff I needed to do, could be done from home. So I hopped back in the EXT and sat in rush hour traffic, since I was now heading in the direction of downtown with the rest of the morning commuters. Took me 20 minutes to get to work, but 35 to get back home. That sucked. :mad:
