Not a Fun Day

[jeriendhal]

Work in general sucked yesterday. The phones were ringing steadily and there was no let up on the faxes. It also sucked specifically when we got the news that we were getting slapped with mandatory furlough days again, this time at the absolute last minute. So not only am I not going to get paid on Labor Day, I'm not going to get paid tomorrow or next Tuesday. Five day weekends would be nice, but not like this.

Oh, and some moron backed into my van when I was pulling out of the parking lot. It was a minor ding but its going to be a freaking hassle to get it repaired, even if I'm not paying for it.

where do you work?

Uh huh. I'm civil service in New York, whose finances are super crapola and we haven't been given mandatory furlough days. Are you federal government or has a private business decided to follow their sterling example?

I work for Level One, a temp agency.

Which hired me out to ACS.

Which is a division of Xerox.

Which is contracted out to the state to administer Medicaid authorization for drug payments.

I'm living in a Dilbert cartoon right now.
