Back to the grind....


Argh!!

Today is going to be my first day back to work since everything happened. I'd much rather have my toe nails peeled back off their nailbeds then face that place and all those people.

I already know it's going to be a non-stop stream of coworkers and employees 'stopping in to say hi' and see how I'm doing.

Anyone want to take bets on how long it will take before I want to punch someone in the nose?

Thankfully it will be a BUSY day for me, considering I took Monday and Tuesday off and have to facilitate an orientation today.

I'll have no time to shoot-the-shit with the well-wishers!

Wish me luck on not finding myself on the 6 o'clock news for assault and battery!

Happy Wednesday!

    I had wine and a Clif bar... Does that count?
Whatever works!

    May you have made it through the day without any mayhem occurring nor your patience mangled by the clueless.
    Hope you can kick back and relax this evening. Got wine?
I do have wine, second glass already. Only one person came up to me all excited 'congratulating' me on my son's decision. I bit my tongue.

    I sincerely hope the odds will be higher than expected.
The day was not as bad as I'd expected it to be. Thank God.

    Quoting  :

Nope, not COVID. I took a few days off for emotional recovery from watching my son depart for bootcamp. Not going to lie, that was the hardest thing I've ever had to do, watch him drive away in that van.

    Good luck - as for me I feel very fortunate I’m not returning
Lucky you!

I know! I didn't realize how much I enjoyed leaving comments on other blogs, I've missed it.

The word was out already when I got to work.... everyone pretty much avoided the topic of my son and I was THANKFUL!

    Good Luck! You can do it or not (the assault and battery thingy).
I had a pretty rough start, but it got better as the day went by. Thankfully people pretty much avoided the topic altogether....

If you see me in the real world, come say "Hi Justskin."

I always behave. Preferably not well.
