Didn't win the lotto. The weather outside is GORGEOUS! It would have been the perfect first day of the rest of my life had I won. *sigh*

Lately I have been feeling caged up. Maybe it's spring? I don't know. I just feel like when I am telling my co-workers that I am going down the hall (to pee, because we have to let each other know for phone coverage) I just want to flee. That or scream "What the F is wrong with a call going to voicemail????" But I mean really... we are only in the year 2008. Working for a boss who will NOT give up paper and will not use the outlook scheduler and will NOT use his blackberry for reminders, well, what can I expect.

I wish I knew a way to sustain myself outside this '9-5' BS. I want some freedom in my day. I want to be able to pee without announcing it to my co-workers. I am not against working at all, I just can't stand this being "owned" business, ya know? I really think there is a difference. When I do my pet sits I enjoy myself. I like hanging out with cats and dogs and making sure they are played with, fed and have fresh water. I love it. I just can't make ends meet in this area on that alone.

I need to start thinking outside the box. I need to come up with REASONABLE idea's of what to do. I was told about freelancing for extra money, but then I was told it's very hard to get into. I need to find something within my reach. Although I also could start reaching further. I just can't take this much longer. I am going insane taking orders from others for shit they don't want to do themselves. Ah, the life of an admin...

It's not all bad. I am learning new things here, and honestly, if that was the main focus of my day, I would probably be happier. Alas it's not. It's a small chunk of my week. But again, what can ya do...

Can you see me at my next interview?

Interviewer: Why do you want to leave your current job?
Me: Because I had to tell them every time I had to pee, and I drink a lot of water so it got old.

*sigh*

Happy hump day everyone!
