cimmy: okay, so...
cimmy: today!
cimmy: TOday
cimmy: I was here at 8:15
OJai: wow
cimmy: EIGHT freakin o'clock
cimmy: (which isn't early, unless you work at 9:00)
OJai: hahahaha
OJai: why so early?
cimmy: DETE meeting
cimmy: so, food comes
cimmy: I set it down in the conf. room where people have sort of gathered
cimmy: EARLY
cimmy: and then go validate the delivery guys
cimmy: (you're a good person, you did a good job, etc.)
cimmy: and come back to set up the meeting
cimmy: and people are already DROOLING over the food....one guy is trying to open one of the trays of pastries
cimmy: one guy is trying to get coffee
OJai: stupid DETE
cimmy: (we have TONS of coffee in the kitchen, you could have
gotten it if you're so damn anxious!)
OJai: hahahaa
cimmy: so I'm just sort of looking at them
cimmy: and pastry guy finally gets the lid off and goes "there's no napkins!"
OJai: grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
cimmy: and is acting put out
cimmy: the food has been tehre for 2.5 minutes
OJai: *sigh*
cimmy: so I said "well, I need to set them out
OJai: "IF you will EXCUSE me... [elbows pastry guy out of the way]
cimmy: I've got some right here" pointing to the cupboard he's
STANDING IN FRONT OF
OJai: HAH
OJai: pastry guy was raised in a barn
OJai: by an indulgent nanny
OJai: goat
OJai: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
OJai: (oooo look how cool these are
OJai:
http://www.doverpublications.com/designsampler/0601/art6.htm
cimmy: cook
cimmy: cooL
OJai: and so what did you do to pastry guy?
OJai: (i'm still cracking myself up with that nanny goat thing, btw)
cimmy: oh...this is just the TIP of the iceburg
cimmy: you're sitting, right?
OJai: i am
cimmy: you've got time, right?
OJai: i do
cimmy: so he took his pastry, stepped aside slightly, I got napkins, the took one and sat down
cimmy: then coffee guy
cimmy: he wants sugar
cimmy: it's STILL IN THE BAG, idiot
cimmy: he, at least was very apologetic and stepped aside while I set everything up
OJai: arrrrrgh
cimmy: then, there is a weekly staff meeting which I have become in charge of because my DETE meeting preceeds it once a month
OJai: ok
cimmy: (only, I didn't realize I was in CHARGE of it)
cimmy: (apparently I am)
cimmy: (oh, twice a month, actually)
OJai: pfft
cimmy: okay, so see how I didn't know I was in charge of it
cimmy: see how I just thought I'd order the food and have it there?
cimmy: see that?
cimmy: so, I had 3 trays of snacks
OJai: sure yeah
cimmy: one I set aside and 2 I opened
cimmy: of COURSE people want the one I set aside, EVEN THOUGH it's exactly the SAME
OJai: whaaa??
cimmy: so, my DETE meeting ends and I go in and rearrange the treats and OJ
cimmy: so this it looks nice
OJai: ok
cimmy: this=that
OJai: k
cimmy: and come back to my desk
cimmy: as far as I'm concerned, the treats are my ONLY responsibility for Staff Meeting
cimmy: James comes over about 10 mins later
cimmy: the coffee is empty!
cimmy: there's no water!
cimmy: me...Oh?
cimmy: I said, we have 2 kitchens with coffee, can't they use that for today?
cimmy: james: we need 2 airpots next time
cimmy: me: ok
OJai: okay
cimmy: me: but tehre's full pots of coffee in the kitchens
cimmy: j: they're not going to get up and go out of the room for coffee
cimmy: m: okay, well...you could SERVE them
cimmy: (thinking...if they REALLY want coffee that badly, they will get up and go get some)
OJai: um yeah
cimmy: apparently Suzanne (asst. to President) when to get a bottle of water and said "WHAT?! No WATER??"
cimmy: so, I just got a call from James....
cimmy: so, tehre are some things I've been asked to pass on to you
cimmy: 1. the treats were on the wrong counter, they need to be moved to the other one
cimmy: 2. the whiteboard was in the way, it should have been moved
cimmy: 3. you need to provide water
cimmy: 4. we need more coffee
cimmy: 1. bite me
cimmy: 2. can you freakin' push it out of the WAY?
cimmy: 3. bite me
cimmy: 4. bite me

cimmy: "well, at least you know how to improve now"
cimmy: BITE ME
cimmy: Kirsten is indignant!
cimmy: she said NO NO NO NO O NO NO THIS IS THEIR MEETING
OJai: aha
cimmy: you were just providing the ordering
OJai: YEAH
OJai: YEAH
cimmy: and picked up the phone
cimmy: I said NOOOOO
cimmy: don't call them
cimmy: I just needed to vent
OJai: HAHAHAHAHAHAH
cimmy: she said, this is how they pass the buck
cimmy: they should NOT be making you do their meeting
cimmy: you have nothing to do with it
cimmy: WHY did Brian say that???!!!
cimmy: *I* will fix this
OJai: YAY
OJai: vg
cimmy: hahahaha, I said "Kirsten, you don't need to fix anything.
I just didn't know it was my job to set up this meeting, I thought I just provided the extra food
cimmy: and now I feel like everyone is coming down on me
cimmy: and I"m in some sort of trouble"
OJai: hahahaahaha
OJai: did you tell Brian you didn't know it was your responsibility?
