Tough week at work...

[jayes_musings]

...and still got another day before I get a day off...and that day off coincides with Jury Duty. What fun!

So, I'm relaxing with a bottle of sweet Mosel wine, so if my typing seems to deteriorate, you'll know why. :D

Work did get a little interesting today, when a baby rattlesnake was found under the garbage can in our break room. Never seen a rattler in the 'wild' before. I was there when the custodian found it, and kept an eye on it while he got my manager. It was all curled up, and until I saw it flick its tongue we wondered if it was dead. So my manager got a box and a stick and gave it a little poke, and I even saw it go to strike (cool!)...it was too young to have its rattle. So, anyway, they called the base pest control who came out and caught it to set it free in the fields on base.

But it was neat to find a rattlesnake and see it close up. I usually miss such excitement. Yes, I like snakes it's spiders that freak me out.

I don't like spiders OR snakes! Or rodents.

*hugs* You work so hard.

Hehehe..you wouldn't like where I work then. We have all three...the rodents being rats! And the roaches. It's such a LOVELY place!

*Hugs* The thing is, I'm the only one who does any work there. There are three other people in my department...and they're all lazy as hell. Plus a manager who's too gutless to fire any of them.

That's never any fun, carrying the work load alone.
