  • Mood: cynical

Why can't chaos be scheduled?

The long awaited Friday has arrived. Of course, immediately upon walking into the office I learn that my administrative assistant's doctor has resceduled her appointment from tomorrow to today, throwing her into a worried state and throwing the office into a bit more chaos. See, today is the deadline for RA applications, so it is one of the worst days for us to be without a receptionist.

Seems like this kind of stuff happens a lot with her, which is unfortunate and annoying. I don't distrust her at all; it's just that there's always something-- weekly if not daily-- that is in crisis and pulls her-- mentally if not physically-- away from the office. If I thought any of it was BS, I wouldn't feel guilty about being cynical. As it is, I'm cynical and I know I shouldn't be.

I have no plans for tonight, which suits me fine. Some beer and some TV are all I need, and I'd even ditch the TV in a pinch. Anyone has a better idea, feel free to comment...
