I'm done with Bicycle Boy
Good god, how hard is it to read and or add a bit of context to an email? Apparently, it causes excruciating pain. 🙄
Last week, one of our vendors sent me an email saying he made a mistake and put the wrong job number on an invoice. It shouldn't have been Project X, it should have been the big hospital project. I appreciated that because we have to track everything for the hospital and will be audited when it's done. Which should be August, thank the gods.
Anyway, I forwarded it to my co-worker who is handling that aspect of the job and put in the emal, "See R's notes below." Five minutes later, he's at my desk and says, "Did you know that invoice has the wrong job number on it?" I look at him for a solid minute, wondering WTF he's on about. Then it hits me and I ask, "Did you read the email?" He says, "No, I didn't think I needed to." EVEN THOUGH I TOLD HIM TO DO EXACTLY THAT IN THE EMAIL.
Okay, fine, whatever.
Fast forward to ten minutes ago when he forwards me an email with zero context. Just the original email asking about the kinds of jobs we bid on, our bid limit, etc. Since one of the questions was whether we could provide a certificate of insurance, I guessed maybe that was why he sent it to me. But, just to be safe, I make sure to clarify and ask if he's looking for a cert or if he wants me to answer all the contractor's questions. Shocker, he expects me to respond to all of it, even though HE is the estimator.
And yanno, MAYBE SPECIFY THAT IN THE EMAIL? I shouldn't have to repsond to you and ask what I'm supposed to do. Or, at least, I don't think that I should! If I'm doing your job for you, give me that much, please.
I swear to god every day he gets more and more up his own ass. It took him longer to forward and respond to me than it would have taken him to answer the questions himself.
Anyway, how's your day going? 🤣
And as tax for being a whiner, I give you Da Boiz.
And because I promised![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Happy Tuesday?

Aw, poor guy. Nayla was 11, which is middle aged, but was still hard.
It's extra cute in person because she has these short little legs like a corgi. And watching her run is hilarious.
Same. Like it's simple, how DID I goof it up this time?
no subject
Yeah. He had FLV though so we didn't expect a long life. For sure expected more than 3 years though (and like 18 months from his diagnosis).
Hahaha omg that sounds hysterical.
It wasn't you, it was the HTML.
no subject
Oh no, poor baby. :( A friend has a cat with FLV right now.
I should look to see if I have any videos of her running, it's too funny.
Yes, blame it on the HTML. :D
no subject
Yeah. It's not fun. I had one who was a carrier once, but I've never had one with it.
It sounds it!
Exactly. It was giving me fits also.
no subject
It's a rough life for a kitty, for sure.
She's a nut, that cat.
ALWAYS.
no subject
It is. I'm glad that I was able to give him a good life.
She sounds like it. It's adorable.
I see they have a little "link" button so maybe that works better.
no subject
Yup, he was well-fed, comfortable, and loved. You can't ask for more.
I love that cat. :D
It does. I'd forgotten about it, but it's what I used the last attempt. DOH.
no subject
Cannot. And considering I got him because my friend's dog caught him... definately a better life.
Awww
Saaame. SAAAAMEEE.
